Celtics (20-13) at Rockets (18-15) Game #34 12/27/18

Nice Brown. Keep taking it strong to the rim.

[Banner18now!]

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

what game are you watching, Brown has been good tonight.

When he takes it to the basket sure but he settles for bad shots too many times.

[SCeltic34]

Still tons of time left.  But it's going to take a superhuman defensive and rebounding effort.

Tatum is not having a good game tonight....

Please danny, trade Rozier. he has horrible BBIQ and it will open up shots for Brown/Hayward to get in a rhythm

Imagine replacing him with Anthony Davis........

Rozier/Brown/Hayward/Theis are a combined minus-84 over their 72 minutes tonight per Brian Robb

I’m starting to resign with the fact the C’s as a 3rd or 4th seed. CBS obviously is focused solely on the playoffs with the fact he sticks with guys that are hurting the team with their play.

[jpotter33]

This is going to be one of those games that Jaylen has a terrible +/-, but I just don't think this is his fault at all. The 2nd unit is just so crappy; Ainge may actually need to make a move at the deadline.

Jaylen does deserve some blame for the fact that he's not really making the second unit any more dangerous ... He can't create for himself or challenge opponents from outside or inside.  He's got great athleticism but needs a really potent lineup around him in order to have space to do anything.

Yeah, that's the main thing with Brown. He's only really effective in certain lineups due to his inability to create for himself or others.

Let me fall down after I shoot a 3 and get a foul...

[CF033]

Ok that one is def game.

Brad is having probably his worst year coaching. Horrible rotations, lets leads balloon before calling a timeout, not reining in guys like Rozier. And just not getting a team with this talent to Gel.

[PAOBoston]

What a flop

[SCeltic34]

They called that on MM?  I thought Tucker was tough.  What a flop.
