Just abysmal pick n roll defense. We help when we shouldn’t and don’t help when we should

Why can't Warren or Bridges ever pass the ball? So many easy dump-offs to Ayton that never happen.
I was going to post the same thing.

will like to think Celtics jumpers would cool off so not tripping as yet
my concern is the dribble hand offs, too many dunks....
we haven't been giving up so many layups/dunks in this three game stretch but it's early

still wanna see Ayton challenge some shots

I have a feeling we're gonna resurrect Hayward's career tonight.

Celts owner Wyc Grousbeck is sitting with the broadcasters (seems like a good guy!) and they were talking about Oubre and the whole situation...one of the broadcasters asked if he'd ever seen anything like that before with players being switched/confused in a trade and he said he had and it was with one of the teams involved in the Oubre deal. The way he said it I automatically assumed the Wizards. If anyone else caught that let me know if you thought differently.

Need to keep attacking the rim. Celtics real thin upfront. Theis and Williams their only bigs

Jeeze the Celtics announcers. They cringe at the fall but then go on to say oh never mind it is all good Kyrie got up. That is all I care about.

They actually said that shit.

Wow.

55 - 49 and then 2 no calls on drives for us followed by Celtics going on a run
anyway as I said in the 1st, I wasn't tripping on their early hot shooting. we're hanging with them

Never mind. Maybe Warren shouldn't try passing the ball. Lol.

Some bad stretches in there, but this game is winnable. Ayton needs to punish them down low...really wish we could infuse a little amare in him. I want to see him throw a huge dunk down.
