Celtics (6-2) at Pacers (6-3) Game #9 11/3/18

[blink]

Brown just glides to the rim sometimes

[BitterJim]

Is Smart the best in the league at drawing charges?

[liam]

McDermott trying to guard Brown is a crazy mismatch.

[jpotter33]

Other than a few quick threes, Smart has been phenomenal in this first quarter.

[liam]

Nice 1st quarter.

[knuckleballer]

The defense has been excellent.  They have so much height and athleticism and as they're getting better at playing together, it's becoming a beautiful thing to watch.

Smart has been a bulldog on defense...making it tough on the other teams

[rocknrollforyoursoul]

But every one of those threes we're open shots and good shots. Just didn't make them.

The trouble, as I see it, is that "good shots" is now considered to be any open three-pointer by just about any player on the roster, and this team is not stacked with great 3pt shooters—several good ones, but there are no Ray Allens on Klay Thompsons on this roster. And if the threes aren't falling—as happens quite often with this team—they have trouble generating offense.

[BitterJim]

Rozier got bailed out by the foul call there

[Kiorrik]

LET'S GO CELTICS!!

Just tuned in :] Hey all! Enjoy the game!

[jpotter33]

Can someone please tell Rozier to stop dribbling so much... The quality of offensive sets drastically deteriorated as soon as Kyrie and Smart both went out.

[BitterJim]

Baynes has really ugly form on above-the-break 3s

[knuckleballer]

Hayward!

[BitterJim]

Hayward alley oop! He must really trust the ankle

[SCeltic34]

Hayward should be the primary ballhandler, not Rozier.
