He's a better rebounder for his size.would hauser be better than muscala?
This.Jaylen Brown isn’t in the top 50 of things you can complain about with the Celtics in this game
Sadly, I can believe it.I still can’t believe Grant missed them both. Just so shitty.
Its unbelievable. Grant is a good free throw shooter too. Just completely pissed down his legI still can’t believe Grant missed them both. Just so shitty.
I think it's more forgivable if he's Derrick White. In fact I think most of us would feel bad, but Grant talks so much shit.Its unbelievable. Grant is a good free throw shooter too. Just completely pissed down his leg
There’s a lot of shame when you consider the three game losing streak they’ll have now. Muscala was an absolute stiff tonight. Grant should have to clean all his teammates’ cars. Marcus has been invisible on offense. Absolutely disgraceful even when you account for the scratches tonight.This thread is off the rails. These guys have pianos on their backs right now. Yeah Grant missed his fts but this game has been one hell of a gritty effort. No shame in coming up short if that’s what happens.
Yeah, maybe we are watching different games? Smart is throwing the ball directly to Cavs and can’t hit the broad side of a barn…Grant Williams epically choked….Mike Muscala looks like he was picked up from the local Y to play..but yeah, the guy with the triple double is definitely the issueThis.
It's fucking insane. He's played 93 minutes in 2 nights. If it weren't for his super human effort tonight on the back to back, Grant isn't a position to gag 2 free throws with .8 seconds left for the win.
They're missing 3 starters, including an MVP candidate, playing on the road, after a double overtime game 24 hours ago.The plain truth is they are just soft. They don’t respond to getting smacked and it lingers for 2-3 games. Plenty of time to fix themselves, but it’s clear teams don’t fear them.
Its fitting. Last image should be Grant hoisting a miserable 3 and slumping his shouldersThe play was a Grant 3? Really?
It was the open play—I don’t fault the decision anywhere near as much as them letting it get to that point.The play was a Grant 3? Really?
This. They were nails tonight given the circumstances. On the road. Against a very good team. The soft shit is embarrassing.They're missing 3 starters, including an MVP candidate, playing on the road, after a double overtime game 24 hours ago.
Soft is the last thing I would use the effort tonight. Frankly, if they lost by 20, I wouldn't have given a shit, because they should have, all things considered.
It's not just this game though. Something's broken with this team. They've been very mediocre for a while now.They're missing 3 starters, including an MVP candidate, playing on the road, after a double overtime game 24 hours ago.
Soft is the last thing I would use to describe the effort tonight. Frankly, if they lost by 20, I wouldn't have given a shit, because they should have, all things considered.
Williams? Ha.Lame.
Get rest, get roleplayers like Tatum, Horford and Williams back and see if they can make the play-in after they hire another interim coach!
Of course it was open, the Cavs wanted that outcome.It was the open play—I don’t fault the decision anywhere near as much as them letting it get to that point.
Yep it’s about a lot more than tonight.It's not just this game though. Something's broken with this team. They've been very mediocre for a while now.
I am not part of the negativity parade here. Don't want any part of it.Williams? Ha.
We need you on that wall. Me, I'm worried.I am not part of the negativity parade here. Don't want any part of it.
But I think the "tough" view would be that they gutted out a win despite all that. It's not like they lost an epic duel in the OT game last night...they let that one get away after blowing a 28-point lead the previous game. They didn't "respond" despite the challenge they created for themselves.They're missing 3 starters, including an MVP candidate, playing on the road, after a double overtime game 24 hours ago.

The only thing soft about tonight’s effort was that call.I know it gets overlooked now . But the 2 free throws the cavs got to tie the game at the end of regulation were laughable. A complete joke.
I honestly had already completely forgotten about this and you’re 100% right. But I think it’s also fair to complain about the call that Grant got (if you’re a Cavs fan). There was definitely more contact on Grant but they normally don’t call that foul in that situationI know it gets overlooked now . But the 2 free throws the cavs got to tie the game at the end of regulation were laughable. A complete joke.
And none of the 4 misses were even closeMuscala: 1 for 5 on 3-pointers, which are supposed to be his specialty. Just brutal.
I think you saw tonight how much Brogdon means to this team. Him missing the last few was huge, and if they have him last night, they probably roll. Then they come back tonight without Horford or Tatum, get destroyed on the defensive glass down the stretch as a result of tired legs, etc.It's not just this game though. Something's broken with this team. They've been very mediocre for a while now.
