Not able to watch the game, but have NBA.com open.

Who the guarding Lou Williams??? 

He's currently tied with our entire team.

Just noticed something brutal about the Celtics defense. They help out way too much instead of just playing man to man. This Help defense worked a few year back but its very old now. More teams have caught on & we also have gotten older & slower trying to help  then get back. Look how Rondo & Pierce are getting buried 2nite so far. It happens in all of our games especially when a team has good shooters.

We got lucky last night playing a bad shooting team that missed a lot of good open shots. This won't happen on most nights. No wonder we got killed on the west coast road trip. I haven't watched those games yet, the boxscore alone from my phone turned me off.

Not sure it was a good idea to try and full court press Teague with that much time on the clock.

Down double-digits after one quarter. 

This is the Celtics we know and hate.

Bad first quarter but they have kept the deficit to 11.

Now just chip away at it and try to go in even or close to even at the half. Atlanta had a brilliant start with their hot-shooting but it won't last. Atlanta will weaken. Boston will get stronger as the game goes on if they stick at it.

36% shooting.  Not just a defensive problem.

I dont like Doc pulling Bradley along with KG so early...notice the hawks went on their run when Bradley sat down?
