They should put a jersey on that kid who just hit the half court shot.Celtics 4-16 from three, missing a bunch of wide open looks
And people were questioning Ime at the beginning of last season, Brad when some of those teams looked bad, etc.This is the kind of game that really makes you wonder about Mazzula. They look sluggish, unprepared, a step slow…
Still aren’t moving the ball enough is the bigger problem.Celtics 4-16 from three, missing a bunch of wide open looks
Totally different situation. They've deteriorated over the course of this season, not improved.And people were questioning Ime at the beginning of last season, Brad when some of those teams looked bad, etc.
Last I checked, they still have the best record in the league. Every team goes through bad stretches during the course of the NBA season - Mazzula's real test will be when the playoffs come.
What can Joe do better about the C's missing a bunch of open 3's the last two games?This is the kind of game that really makes you wonder about Mazzula. They look sluggish, unprepared, a step slow…
They started the season winning a bunch of “would’ve lost it last season“ games and now they have lost like the last 7 of those so it feels bad right now. They are playing very poorly.And people were questioning Ime at the beginning of last season, Brad when some of those teams looked bad, etc.

They aren’t passing or defending.What can Joe do better about the C's missing a bunch of open 3's the last two games?
the defense is pretty rottenWhat can Joe do better about the C's missing a bunch of open 3's the last two games?
they can play better defense for 1. Way to many easy buckets for the other teamsWhat can Joe do better about the C's missing a bunch of open 3's the last two games?
Right. You have to assume the 3s will revert to a healthy mean. It's the shitty rotations, lazy play, turnovers, drives into 15 guys, lack of time outs and set plays, etc.they can play better defense for 1. Way to many easy buckets for the other teams

Fair on the D, but Denver was just on fire last game. I'm not too worried about the D at this point in the season against a team like the Thunder. I'd rather lose a couple games to WC teams to hopefully stay fresher when it mattersthey can play better defense for 1. Way to many easy buckets for the other teams
Yep - I've been very underwhelmed, he's meant to a high energy guy that score in bunches off the bench when others are struggling but he's seemed weirdly lethargic and disengaged. Not sure this would be reflected in the stats but I feel like so many of his shots clang off the front rim, almost like he doesn't have his legs under him or something.Brogdon has been awful these last 10 games. Just terrible
A team without its best player at that. Just awfulOKC shot 35% on 3 and still hung 74pts on Boston
that's flat-out effort and defense
Then guys should just get the night off. Playing lazy for a full game doesn’t keep them any fresher.Fair on the D, but Denver was just on fire last game.

But how did their 3pt shooting degrade so much? I Are their nagging injuries accumulating? Are defenses covering them a bit better, and they are only good when wide open?Before @GSW, they shot 40% from 3. Since then, 31% (not including tonight). Kerr and Curry broke this team.
