Ridiculous nights by Dillon Brooks, Amen Thompson, bury Boston Celtics

[@Clamp_TV]

Tatum once again settling for 3s, 0 points in the first half is unacceptable. Him and Mazulla are the reason Celtics lost this game.

[@jzzft11]

Do you think Mazulla ever takes JT on the side and tells him take a few less threes and a few more post-ups? U can bet your a** he doesnt. Kevin Durant takes a lot more mid range attempts than JT and he's a way better natural long range shooter than Tatum. Nope, if anything he TELLS Tatum to keep shooting them. He coaches to his system not to the players strengths

[@raypabon5023]

The had a handful of games they blew last year but they were few and far between. If the Celtics play as the have been the lastv20 games 10-10 they will finish the season at 49-33. That is 25 less wins than last year. Still good enough to make the playoffs.

Which is another reason this game really doesn’t upset me because he is never going to see Rieal minutes. But I am sick of players having career nights because we are giving it to them and then calling it an Outlier performance. it’s not an outlier performance, it’s an NBA player being allowed to play and do whatever he wants because the defense is backing off. Almost any rotational player is going to punish you for that. Like dog I really don’t care that they lost. I just am sick of.

@ I’ve always been a bigger Brown fan so it’s not about deflecting. Tatum is supposed to be a superstar at this point and the face of the franchise so asking him to average even 28.5 isn’t asking a lot. I fully understand there are a lot of mouths to feed and you don’t have to be the main scorer every night but this whole 15-19 pts for a guy like Tatum is part of what’s losing us games. Tatum needs to stay consistent with his aggression moving towards the basket

The EXCUSES are AMAZING! Good teams find different ways to win. The other 70-75 percent of the time it’s usually Sequin and Jaylen Green carrying most of the load for the Rockets.

They probably have the best winning percentage against the top teams!

[@KWAPT]

Those two final lapses on defense aka JB's $300 shoes sliding all over the place and Kornet losing Sengun were embarrassing. These are games on your home floor that you need to finish. The stats were all pretty even in this game with the exception of turnovers and fastbreak points. That's where we lost. And to me it's as simple as their stars hit big shots when it mattered and our's did not. Tatum started to pick it up in the 3rd by getting himself to the line, but he needs to take more than 14 shots. At one point in the game, he deferred to Tillman instead of continuing on to the hoop. Just frustrating. I felt Brown was good tonight and Kornet despite that lapse on D was solid & efficient. Sure Thompson & Brooks were both on fire, but you knew they would be very confident coming in. I mean when it was clear that Brooks was going to have a night, throw Springer on him. Not mad more so just baffled that they couldn't finish a game on their home floor in which they were up 12 w/8 mins left. Thanks John ☘🔒

Queta’s perimeter defense is as bad or worse. It’s very common for teams to have a rough patch after a championship. They played great the first 26 games but now it’s hitting them. Unfortunately when they continue to drop games at home it only embolden’s their opponents to play exceptionally well at the garden. They have double the losses at home than they did the entire season last year. I think they will be fine come April but they are definitely going to be a 2 or 3 seed.

Without Horford, White and Hauser we’re really left with smaller shooters who can’t set great screens for Tatum. Even despite all that we lost to a Rockets team that apparently had a part time Steph Curry. Yea we should have won it but I saw a JB who seemed to be returning to consistency, great development from the end of the bench guys and KP who seems to have finally returned to full form.

The Celtics weakest link is still Mazulla. Yeah players play and if theyre inconsistent or have Achilles heels in their game you can sub for them or work around their handicaps. You cant bench the coach for a quarter or have soneone else take over who makes substitutions or calls timeouts for a quarter. Mazulla is still learning on the job - he gets outcoached way too frequently and gets bailed out by heavy talent. If Dylan Brooks was havjng a career night how come we didnt see more Jaden Springer? Yeah hes a below average three baller, but hes an all NBA level defender. If you cant shoot a three Joe can barely figure out how to use you. Hes rigid and one dimensional. Yeah a good coach establishes an effective system and players adopt to the system but a shouldnt he also tailor his system to his players strengths too? Look at Pat Riley. Did he try to force the Patrick Ewing Knicks into being like the showtime Lakers? No he tailored his coaching to his players strengths in both cases. Now thats a high bar i will admit most coaches have a system and a style and dont change that much. Imo Joe was lucky to be here in the first place, was given a break when the team blew it year before last in the playoffs and they brought him back because he was so new, and, lets be honest, we were little lucky to win it all last year because of all the injuries to the opposition. This is not to say we dont have a great team - we do. Championship level team learning on the job coach. Yes there's been some improvement maybe even potential for Joe to be a truly top notch coach- which he is NOT - but by the time he becomes one if and when he ever does- we wont have the players anymore the window will have closed. With the right coach we could have strung together a run of two or three championships in three or four years - that aint gonna hapoen under Mazulla.

JB not only not all defense he’s a big part of the drop off and only an all star 🌟 by reputation JT heaving lazy 3s You have an excuse for them every time but it’s a pattern This was effort Sure they did enough to be competitive but didn’t have any killer instinct Pretty sad they don’t care. If every team has a season high player or career best your defense is lazy and bad

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

If you think jaylen brown isn't an all star than your a tatum fanboy just say that anyone who blames jayken brown after every game he just had 28 lead the team in scoring again, but its all his fault jaylen brown hasn't regressed in any way it will be nice when he requests a trade after this season and I don't have to deal with shifty tatum fans ever again

Coaching, defense, and Browns turnovers are going in the wrong direction. Stop helping and leaving your man wide open at the three.

[@daryllewing508]

Brooks is baller stop crying

[@everettmoreland9]

You fully disrespected Dillon by not guarding him or even putting a hand up in the first half so you get mad because he got into a rhythm? He’s been at 37% for a couple years now 😂 you can’t be mad because you didn’t read your scouting report. Damn look at those ears. You probably heard the outcome of this game weeks ago 😂

[@xxDevin95xx]

Amen owns

[@judeshaw]

Udoka the Houston coach would never have a player has hot as KP and not get him a shot in the 2nd half in three or four consecutive games. Joe Mazzulla is buddy, buddy with the players and lets them do as they please. I said all this and below because my last time on the chat. Return to Pardon the Interruption TNT where they at least call a spade a spade

[@tylerriley2587]

Joe is tough on the players but does it in private and not publicly he doesn't want the media in their business and will not throw anyone under the bus in front of the media

[@tylerriley2587]

No wonder the Celtics do better on the road

[@iguesss]

Trade Jaylen Brown stain $50 million+ every year

[@judgeonan4526]

Can we just let go of Tillman? Lol

[@tylerriley2587]

yeah I think it's time to cut ties

[@neilarredondo5673]

Stop making excuses Tatum sucks

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

Thank you his name isn't jaylen brown so they can't complain

[@neilarredondo5673]

He is so over paid

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

@neilarredondo5673 I wouldn't say that that's what top guys go for on the market but tatum is and always will be the most overrated player in the league I've been telling people in these comments for years now

[@judeshaw]

The knicks will beat the Celtics because their two stars Brunson and Towns pass to their teammates and allow the other players to score 30 and 40 points. Brown 23 shots and there were multiple 23 shot games recently. Brown running back up the court and laughing with Brooks busting his butt.

[@tylerriley2587]

Tom runs his guys into the ground if you forgot they will gassed by the playoffs

[@SNIPESCONTRA]

🤷🏽‍♂️JT WAS PLAYING SOFT AF 🤨AND GOT DOMINATED THE WHOLE GAME 🤦🏽‍♂️ he could’ve tried to disrupt that clutch shot at the end but he just stood there

[@kearnhoang]

Mazzulla is really rubbing off on you Karalis. This was a really soft take.

[@iguesss]

Tatum plz leave.. even if you win it’s a make up FMVP.. they don’t love you like that

I didn’t even watch.. I’ve stopped watching because I don’t like what I’m seeing and every time I watch they always play like dung.. this doesn’t seem like that type of game but tillman? Really

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

Tatum is a problem i know his name isnt jaylen brown so they cant comolain about it but hes been terrible but its all jaylen browns faukt who lead the team in scoring again

[@iguesss]

Cuz brown stain don’t pass

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

@iguesss jaylen brown has been facilities all season you know nothing about basketball actually to much passing

[@iguesss]

@ hahahaha Jaylen been passing too much? He only passes if he can get an assist now and doesn’t swing the ball

[@iguesss]

@ u should be arguing why Jaylen Brown should be traded so he can finally have his own team smh

[@anthonycalabraro1246]

@iguesss you just don't watch the games and clearly don't like jaylen brown and I like the celtics so no i want jaylen brown to stay

[@judeshaw]

Trade KP to Sac for a combination of Huerter, Keegan Murray, Trey Lyles, Doug McDermott, Keon Ellis because he's not appreciated in Boston. I'll love to see him play alongside Sabonis. KP is in his prime and got a chip and Sac is warm and KP is susceptible to cold weather. E.g., if Brown passed out of the times, he's tripled teamed 3 or 4 feet from the basket with wide open players all around the perimeter he'd have an extra 5-assists. At least, it doesn't bother Derrick White because when Tatum and Brown start freezing their teammates out White will throw up a few 30-foot threes and get his self-going. But KP won't do that.

[@USMC-cv5sd]

DILLION BROOKS !! OF ALL CRACKHEADS !! Yeah, Jalen Brown was forcing it too much
