Al Horford this half: 0/2, 0 pts, 3 reb.

Yeah, he's been pretty nonexistent. He's got to step up on nights like this.

Incoming bump from the 'Horford doesn't deserve his contract' thread after the game?

Boston has to survive these four games between tonight and Sunday

Seriously, where is Kyrie right now?

Sprained uterus. 

Dumb comment even for you.

If you're going to quote, take the whole thing -- there was a serious reply too.  And thanks.  Is that a rule violation, mods?  No?  I guess I'll respond with an insult too, then -- kiss my ass.

Maybe Kyrie got out there and figured out he wasn’t ready. Don’t think Stevens cares too much about tonight and doesn’t want to risk him

pretty much IMO

I mean, it was just a thigh bruise, and he had three games off with it. It's not like it's something that he'd be really risking. Plus, there's no report or anything suggesting that he's injured or anything.

It seems like Brad legitimately just didn't play him down the stretch in favor of Rozier, which is... baffling, especially given how bad Rozier was down the stretch and how bad our offense has been.

Gotta give credit to Toronto.  They are playing harder and more together on defense.  Forcing Cs into a lot of contested iso shots.

Disappointed in the Cs defense though, they were awful in 2nd Q.

Relax guys, we will bounce back. I have faith in the green.

Toronto this year has been scary.

Worst case scenario is they leave Toronto up 1 game and season series tied. But they need to win the next three games. Esp the ones at home

Naw, not from me. I think Al is pretty clearly the most important cog on our team, and at least his defense tonight has been pretty good.

But still, as a leader on a younger team this kind of lack of aggression isn't justifiable. It's not like he's simply missing shots, he's not even looking for his shots. He simply has to be more aggressive, especially since we apparently are only playing Kyrie half the game for some unknown reason now.

Stop baiting/trolling, disrespecting others, etc.  That results in a 10 day ban, Snakehead.

Horford needs to be aggressive, if he's forcing the defense to contest, he's opening up so much space for shooters. You can't ignore how clutch he has been. Defenses need to key in early during crunch time.

Toronto regular season good but playoff good?? They seem to do this quite often
