1/3 - Celtics @ Pistons

[128]

Dodged a bullet there. Those were wide-open looks for Griffin.

 

[benhogan]

If Daniel Theis is one of your best wings then you deserve to lose to Detroit

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Great passing to set that one up.

 

[mikeot]

Theis ex machina!

 

[lovegtm]

Which is insane insane since they start and play with our 3 best players most of the time.

I’m with you, it makes no sense

 

[radsoxfan]

Maybe this is a silent FU from Brad to the FO.... (not really, he is not the type to do that)

But if you give him only a handful of legit NBA players, he's going to start them all and play them in crunch time, regardless of the fact that the combination makes no sense.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Watching paint dry is less tedious than this basketball game.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Why are we doubling Rose and giving up open shots all over the place?

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

They are just getting annihilated on any high ball screen.

 

[TripleOT]

The Celtics lost a five point lead late in the last game and they just lost a late four point lead in this one

 

[djbayko]

Yeah, that's the place where instead of calling over the back you give it to inside position out of bounds, but that gentlemen's agreement breaks down in a video review system.

That's why they should call it correctly then.

 

[teddykgb]

Why are we doubling Rose and giving up open shots all over the place?

Wondering the same. Playing two centers and somehow getting crushed inside and struggling to rebound

 

[mostman]

Two bigs in and still getting abused in the paint. What is the point?

 

[eddiew112]

Tatum has to fucking finish that

 

[boxosII]

things are out of sync. early season NBA game

 

[Van Everyman]

Is Grant inactive today?

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

I really wish Tatum had scored there.

 

[radsoxfan]

Semi in for offense-defense... I guess Brad somehow thinks Theis and TT combo is a necessary combination to keep our defense from being merely bad rather than putrid?

 

[djbayko]

Right, I'm saying overall it goes from 20ft 9in in college to 23ft 9in. That foot on the sides is a huge difference in court awareness

As I already clarified, I wasn't arguing against the theory. I was correcting the actual difference in the corner, since that's where a lot of Payton's OOBs have been.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Is Grant inactive today?

He’s inactive this whole season—that’s the problem!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Huh, foul called on Theis. Shocking.

 

[benhogan]

Maybe this is a silent FU from Brad to the FO.... (not really, he is not the type to do that)

But if you give him only a handful of legit NBA players, he's going to start them all and play them in crunch time, regardless of the fact that the combination makes no sense.

tis the season for conspiracy stories

 

[Kliq]

And bailout.

 

[reggiecleveland]

Tatum seems to tighten up end of games

 

[teddykgb]

Isn’t nearly 120 points against this Pistons team definitely putrid?

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Jaylen was 11-13 at one point early in 2H and is now 12-15. Sorry but the coaching is a train wreck so far.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Celtics in the process of cheesedicking consecutive games to the previously winless Pistons.

 

[128]

Plumlee: 7 for 8 from the line. What the fuck?

 

[The Gray Eagle]

Tatum had a layup and blew it, changing the game completely.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Tatum seems to tighten up end of games

Agreed. I feel like it has to be in his head. I hoped a vet would help calm him down

 

[128]

I really wish Tatum had scored there.

Or at least gotten fouled.

 

[teddykgb]

Jaylen was 11-13 at one point early in 2H and is now 12-15. Sorry but the coaching is a train wreck so far.

They have gone to him but he has not gotten free as well as he did earlier. Not necessarily his fault but I think the stat is at least slightly misleading

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

Plumlee: 7 for 8 from the line. What the fuck?

Of course he has to do this today.

 

[reggiecleveland]

Jaylen was 11-13 at one point early in 2H and is now 12-15. Sorry but the coaching is a train wreck so far.

You understand the other team has something to do with it right?

 

[ifmanis5]

Jaylen for 33333!

 

[benhogan]

I held so much hope for 2021

 

[Van Everyman]

Celtics in the process of cheesedicking consecutive games to the previously winless Pistons.

Tis the season to be cheesedicking

 

[boxosII]

Downtown

 

[radsoxfan]

Isn’t nearly 120 points against this Pistons team definitely putrid?

Haha, I agree. Perhaps we need some new vocabulary to describe whats happening.

 

[osori]

That was a big 3 by JB.

 

[dhellers]

Jaylen was 11-13 at one point early in 2H and is now 12-15. Sorry but the coaching is a train wreck so far.

he heard you?

 

[Imbricus]

Just one of those frigging games. Detroit 46% from 3 and a 56% free throw shooter is 7 from 8 from the line.

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

Brown can have some coffee.

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

Weird. If you get the ball to Jaylen, good things happen. Imagine that!

 

[GreyisGone]

JB is so damn good this season.

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Jaylen!

 

[Cesar Crespo]

12 assists, 0 TO for Tatum.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Huge shot

 

[CreedBratton]

Jaylen!!

 

[benhogan]

Agreed. I feel like it has to be in his head. I hoped a vet would help calm him down

Tatum's head is the least of our problems.
