Why is Irving scoring less than Tatum and Brown without having to feed KD? :dahell: nikka is wack.

I want to withhold my excitement, but seeing Timelord you can see his potential can even make this team have a Big 3 of Tatum, Brown, and Timelord

His athleticism, defense, passing ability, lob threat, etc. Not even saying to be 100% healthy. But damn, if he can be just 85% healthy and add jumphooks, putting the ball on the floor, and a 12 foot jumper..... WOW, just wow

It's to the point where I don't even want to watch games when the Celtics are heavy favorites because it's always the same shyt. They come out flat, playing cocky like they'll just cruise a to victory with no effort and get punched in the mouth. Feels like that's half of their losses

If we get Olynyk I'm never watching the nba again

Disappointing home stand. All 4 games were winnable games. People might not wanna admit this but Marcus Smart absence is showing. 0 energy out there. Horrible game from Tatum and 4th quarter start for Brown and the 2nd unit was a KILLER.

Meh we've had this types of losses with him in the lineup

This team plays up and down to the competition, too many winnable games have been blown this year

Tatum had 0 points until he scored his first points with 3 minutes left in the 2nd quarter

That's unacceptable. The amount of lethargic play with this team is horrible. Thinking you can "turn it on" at the beginning of the 4th quarter and think you can win the game because you decided to wake up

We have a roster missing a true killer. Love the J’s like everyone else. Tatum can put up points but has no dog in him. Jaylen has some dog in him but lacks the natural talent to take over a game. C’s need Smart to pick up our stars shortcomings and set the tone for the rest of the team. Our heart and soul.

Nah lol, you going a little overboard breh. The real problem is that Tatum and Brown don't have a true backup that can spell them minutes. They have too much pressure to perform and score 30ppg every game. And majority of the nights, those two are the ONLY two on the entire team that can consistently score on their own. Makes it so easy for opposing teams to defend them. Timelord doesn't even look at the basket, Horford has games where he scores 2 points, Smart and White aren't knockdown shooters, Grant Williams consistently has 0 point nights, Hauser is useless. Only Brogdon helps on the scoring load

Tatum logged the most minutes of any player in the last 4-5 years, Brown plays alot as well. This team hasn't had a true wing backup since they had Marcus Morris. Someone who can play the SF and PF position and reduce their minutes

Their goal this trade deadline should be to get a guy like that
