What the hell is KO doing? That's twice now he's not been paying attention when he's been open.

No way that's on Smart. KO wasn't looking on IT's pass, but on that Olynyk was clearly going to set a screen.

KO got the turnover on the box score there. That was on him. He literally just set a screen for Smart; there was no point in going right back and doing it again there.

Why are we ass at defense this year?

It is going to begin and end with this team on defense.  They gave up 56 points to a team missing three starters for much of the first half.  They just don't have any margin for error when the offense stalls.  Fortunately, the addition of Horford has improved the offense enough to keep winning but it does not bode well for the playoffs.

Yep. But we're content with simply trying to outscore opponents.

You could post up a young forward with a 7 ft wingspan and the ability to pass out of the post like say...

JAYLEN BROWN!

You don't pass to a guy 4 feet from you who isn't even looking.

Can this team be any worse at PnR defense? KO once again leaving his man wide open on one.

Oh, wow, Brad. You're telling me Smart post-ups work?! You'd think we'd be going there more, but nooooo.

Couldn't beat the Knicks, now about to drop one to a struggling Portland team.

Well it was bound to happen, but they better pick it up again next week or they could drop to the 4-5 seed...
