Timberwolves (17-20) at Celtics (21-15) Game #37 1/2/19

[Celtic Fan Forever]

I know we’re not fully healthy, but it would be a real shame to lose this one. Gotta start the 4th strong

I don't understand the substitution patterns on Jaylen Brown. When he does plays well, he is taken out and allowed to grow cold on the bench for long periods of time.

I'd like to see him get some extended minutes on the floor. Especially when he's playing with confidence.

Jaylen is definitely out playing Tatum tonight.

[cltc5]

How’s poor mans Jeff Green doin?

[SCeltic34]

We've given up 85 points total in our last two 3rd quarters.  Opposing bigs killing us in both games.

Get well soon Baynes.

[RJ87]

We don’t have anyone besides Horford who can defend Towns

Baynes is hurt. He'd def help tonight.

End of quarter coming at the right time we need to regroup and refocus on the defensive end. Smarts going off the court disrupted them and gave the T-wolves an opening

[liam]

How’s poor mans Jeff Green doin?

I thought Jeff Green was the poor mans Jeff Green.

Losing at home to the Suns and maybe the Wolves would just be rock bottom. Boston has to commit to playing defense again or they are not going to be successful

[hwangjini_1]

brown needed to be more aggressive that quarter. with smart, semi, and jabu out there together brown needs to become a scorer.

okay, play great defense in the fourth, let tatum, rozier, and hayward carry this team to the win.

That’s usually the time they sit Horford because of his minutes restriction as well

[Neurotic Guy]

Really disappointed again.  4:30 wake up tomorrow so turning in. Dreading the wake up look at the score. Hope C’s turn it around but right now Wolves believing and Towns can’t miss.

I agree.  I don't understand why when he is having a good start of the game that he plays even less than if he isn't playing well. 

[celticinorlando]

Have to get the lead back up with Towns on the bench

[tstorey_97]

Wiggins 33 mins
KAT  30:50
Jones 30:20

Keep runnin' these dogs.

Wolves bench 48 mins
Celtics 76 mins

yep. theis is great IN HIS ROLE. he is NOT a 5.

our rim protection suffers greatly without baynes and timelord. theis and al can get key blocks at times but neither are real 5's
