Well, story of the game.  Our bench let us down in the first half and it's happening again here in the second half.

Who would have guessed our bench would be so bad? Last year you would have thought they would make a decent starting line-up; now they are getting run out of the building by Austin Rivers, Nene, and Gerald Green.

Failure to take advantage while Harden is out

The Celtics bench doesn't have a single player I trust to make a shot.  Not a single guy.

Man, so disappointing seeing how bad Hayward looks right now.

Good take by Brown.

He's been better in the fourth.

Theis's pick and roll coverage tonight is middle school level. Completely clueless.

so no bench? remember back when we bragged we had a great bench? 10 deep? two waves we coukd throw at teams? especially with brown and GH coming off bench? looks like that is gone now. compress the team. lets get a better top 7 for playoffs. bench is not getting it done.
LET'S GO CELTICS!

With Harden on the bench and the Rockets extended the lead back to double digits will make it tough for them to win. That was a wasted opportunity and now they are about to get blown out. Game was lost by the bench letting the close game get away. Hayward and Brown suck even on the second unit

That's probably game, but a miracle can still happen.
