LeBron dribbling too much. Needs to involve his teammates more. They're barely part of the offense. LeBron only wants to pass if he is going to get an assist.

This team will be lucky to get out of the first round. They have become a really bad team since the London trip.

Can't stop a Cavs team that has never played together. What a joke.

Most Points givens up in a half this year for the Celtics


To a team that has practiced one whole time together. Embarassing

Yet they are up 12 and Boston looks like the team that has never played together.

I don't know. Washington and Milwaukee are not that far behind.

Brad putting Monroe in with the starters slowed everything down.  He doesn't know the offense well enough yet

Stevens froze out his starters with those stupid substitutions. Ojeleye should not be playing 20+ minutes today. Team couldn't defend a chair that half. They better come out with more energy and defensive tenacity.

This team is not as good as their record. We will be exposed in the playoffs because we really can’t score. When our defensive effort goes down in the second quarter, as it always does, we give up big leads. We are possibly the third or four best team in the East right now. We just aren’t ready for the big time. I can’t recall a single game this season where we’ve been firing on all cylinders for the entire game.

No Monroe today?

The rotations are baffling. No Moose, too much Semi, and starting Morris which hurt the rotation off the bench (Monroe seems like the odd man out).
Well, they started Morris because LeBron was playing PF. But the rotations ARE largely baffling. We should be able to match up well without playing any Semi.

I would've put Brown on him and put Horford on Osman. This would've allowed us to have our normal rotation. Too often Stevens adjusts to the other team. However, it would've been interesting to see who they would've put on Horford. Again, this all would've meant less Semi, who's a complete negative.

Brown is unselfish to a fault sometimes, always looks to make the correct pass instead of just being like ya I'm going to the hole. Like the discipline but when your playing with Morris who does everything he can to get his shot off everytime I'd rather have Jaylen making the plays. Also stick him Lebron he's the only one we have that can't actually guard him.

Vets playing like rooks. Rotations baffling once again.

Looks like we still haven't pulled our heads out of our arses after that embarrassment the other night from Indy.

The whole team doesn't seem to understand or care about matchup basketball. Kyrie stares down at Cedi Osman guarding him and hands off the ball for a three. Really, dude?
