Marcus Smart hottest shooter since Jan 1
This is actually hurting us big time
The amount of cancer shots he and Morris are taking is insane

Jaylen Brown as well
He touches the ball and HAS TO SHOOT
What the fuck lol

:wacko: :wacko:

If it's not a catch and shoot open 3, I don't even look

Marcus Smart is starting to take 3s with 21 seconds on the shot clock when he's statistically the worst shooter ever

Stevens needs to stop giving these players all the freedom...way too soft

Def stevens worst year by far w/ the c's. First season too we'll finish with a worse record than the previous under him i believe. Even though some of the issues prob arent his fault he still needs to take blame.

I don't know how much blame Stevens deserved, but the whole team is to blame I guess
Blowing these back to back leads is solely on the players imo. Especially up 28. Extremely pathetic on defense
Marcus Morris is at least calling out the team. Thank God someone is saying something. Bunch of selfish players in the locker room....that's unfortunate

I didn't watch the 2nd half of Clippers game, but I will later tomorrow. Defensive rotations just sad to watch against Lakers / 2nd half highlights

Just watched the 2nd half....sorry for the rant but...needed after blowing back to back 20 point leads LMAO

3rd quarter offense only scored 12 points, but there was plenty of ball movement outside of Smart/Morris. Defense was fine(3rd only)

4th quarter collapse
Smart and Morris NEED to chill the fuck out with their shot selection. It's really frustrating at this point.
Daniel Theis/on-ball defender getting lost way too much on when to switch. This one I'm not too concerned about because he doesn't get consistent minutes, so I expect some breakdowns. He's usually on the bench when Baynes is in.
Jayson Tatums "defense" chasing shooters around screens was so pathetic. Lazy, effortless. Just sickening...don't care how he shot, he wasn't forcing anything and got hacked all night.
Jaylen Browns shot selection is officially worse than Morris and Smart. This guy is the definition of a black hole. Their isn't a contested shot he won't take the moment he touches that ball.
Al Horford was a no show, but that had a lot to do with how we played in the 2nd half. Stevens pulled Harrell and Zubac away from the point. So many times we had great size advantage in the post....and the players did nothing with it. Amazing defense by Pav Beverley.
Giving up back to back 3s late on the same play....same shooter....wide open is unacceptable.
Don't think I've seen as many offensive fouls as I did on the Celtics last night rofl...

Stevens is also to blame here. The offense was way too predictable. He tried running James Harden offense the entire 2nd half.....without Kyrie LOL
Without Kyrie, our players have no chance of consistently getting into the paint through pick and roll for kick out 3s to cones. So, the second option was to post up whoever had Lou/Beverley on them after Harrell/Zubac were pulled away from the paint. It failed, but Stevens insisted on staying with it.
When both failed, it resulted in offensive fouls and 3 or 4 double clutch jumpers....absolutely pathetic.

Only positive? Gordon Hayward looking better and better b) so hyped about this

Little overreaction here, but if he is out for the rest of the year, he can go ahead and jump ship.
Only being ruled a "sprain", but you never know with Kyrie. Barely any contact on the play.

👀

Tatum was definitely off last night. Same with Horford (missing shots). Didn't really pay attention to Jaylen much (didn't watch the whole game)
