Some of this is poor defense.  Some of this is the Kings hitting shots that we don't mind giving them.

We're hitting shots, but I think our biggest issue right now is the 10 turnovers.  That's too many, and it led to too many easy looks on the other end.  Clean that up, give a little more consistent effort on defense, and we should be fine.

Let's see if we can make it to 55 wins for the season.
When Haywood went down I thought they would have trouble reaching 50 wins. Who knew that Rozier, Brown, Tatum and Theis would be so good picking up the slack. Those players really stepped up and developed and helped define this team this year.

That said, if they lost their remaining ten games and ended up with just 49 wins, this season is still way better than I ever thought it could be when Gordon was laying on that floor with his ankle facing in the wrong direction. The mass amount of player games lost to injury, coupled with the development of the youth, mixed with Stevens excellent coaching to get more than what should be expected from this group is astounding to me and gives me so much hope for banners 18 and 19 going up in the next 4-5 years.

Lol, I know that he hasn't been on the court this year, and it's not just you, as I've seen guys on TNT make this same mistake, but can we at least get his name right, lol? #PetPeeve

Why in the hell does Semi Ojeleye have the second most minutes on our team right now?

In before Eddie20 because Eddie20, lol.

We're really missing Mo (on both sides of the ball).

Uhh, a basketball does not have sides, lol.

Rozier is making a name for himself in the two no-Smart stretches.   He is becoming a very valuable asset -- to keep or trade.  Love his game and it keeps getting better.

Regarding the defense:  the defense has picked up.  The Kings are helping by taking some dumb shots and turning the ball over.

Regarding Rozier:  both.  The Kings are hilariously bad at defending the arc.  Rozier is also on fire.

A little bit of both — to answer both questions!

Sure, it's just the Kings, but win or lose I'm extremely impressed with how resilient these C's are.

Missing half their starters and like most of their stars, but keep battling no matter if it's at home or on the road, and no matter who the team is.

Love watching the young guys grind it out too. Morris, Rozier and Tatum have been exceptional in this recent stretch.

I like a lot of what Monroe does on offense, but I wish he took better care of the ball.  He's very turnover-prone.

okay, finish the third quarter ahead by two. good quarter.

now the bench has to give the starters a rest without giving up the lead. the celtic starters can put the game way.

so simple.  ;D
