Celtics post season success has had almost nothing to do with GH, since due to injury he was never a serious factor in any of the post season runs. Hence a simple projection would be, the guy isn't dependable when you really need him. So why should it matter if GH is gone. BTW: Perhaps you...

That is an intersting question. Fournier might be able to fill in the offensive gaps. But if Kemba sucks, there isn't much you can do Sad fact is that the Celts may not be good against real good teams

And can we safely say that PP is over his injury catalyzed malaise?

FWIW : Garnett was a no-letup regular game time alpha, but a reluctant crunch time presence. Pierce couldn't pull off the non-stop intensity of KG, but was a quite willing crunch time big dog (perhaps too much, but never shy). That complementarity worked wonders! Not sure what that means...

And Brunson makes a shot in the last minute.

Done by 2 with 45 seconds left. Then brunson hits a 3 with 1 second on the clock

Great D is tough on the knees

That's my point. Kobe messed him up.

I blame Kobe.

The problem is that we say that every game. So is 70/30 too generous?

So if dalas shoots 40% and celts 33%, it' is basically a tie game.

He got covid in march 2020

I have to wonder if Marcus was somehow impacted by his covid? he just isn't impactful in any consistent way

at some point it can't be just bad luck. Is C 3 pt d that much worse than league average? See lovegtm above.

Stop the clock. Can't find fault Oh.. why is he out there? SHould of been Kornet?

Kind of knew they would make some last 2nd shot. Been that kind of season.

So now the celts decide to play with purpose. JHC.. they might get their favor returned (the solid they gave to NOP in NO)???

IF there is a such a thing as game changing plays, Tatums' or Smarts are vying for the lead

"never" is a big word. As a 4th option he can quite good. BUt yes -- "reactionary" means "reacting to the moment by being the man". He isn't that good. BUt nice he finally broke the celts dry run

I am going to defend Marcus a bit. He is a not a bad offensive player WHEN he plays within his capabilites. And, as stated up thread, he often feels a need to be THE scorer when no on else wants to shoot. BUT -- he is too damn reactionary these days.
