That sure was a difficult to watch quarter.  I guess that's to be expected when playing so many 3rd stringers.

I have no idea how they are only down 10.

We are so lucky to be only down 10.  We completely collapsed in the middle of the 2nd quarter.  I think the Raps bench played better than their starters, I mean a lot better.

To be fair, their bench played against our 3rd and 4th stringers.

TP - it's a sad state of affairs when we truly are counting 3rd and 4th stringers to play and contribute. I actually don't hate Allen (the two missed 3s and foul on Poetl, notwithstanding), but our only max guy who is playing is a no-show on offense and Brown keeps getting lame charges called on him.

So much for solid ball movement. It's all 1 on 1 led by Rozier.

Rozier has his blinders on!

This offense is ridiculous. What are they doing? This is so ugly right now

First thing, when you aren't shooting well, stop shooting contested jumpshots.  Got to set good screens, move with out the ball and get to the rim.

What an ugly game.  Both teams are tired, but only the C's are shorthanded.

I'd rather just have Tatum or Brown handle the ball and run PnR.  Give them some reps if anything else.  Aside from his rebounding Rozier has been awful.

the last couple of trips on offense have been better.  make Toronto guard with us driving hard to the rim.   see the ball go in the hole.

If The Celtics can get it down to under 10 to start the 4th, I still like our chances.
