Book has hurt more than helped so hopefully the Suns will be more positive with him off the floor.

It doesn't feel like the Suns are playing well enough to come back in the 4th.

I really hate to be that guy, but what the hell? Has the officiating tonight seemed pretty lopsided in favor of the Celtics to anybody else? it just seems like the game is getting called a lot tighter on one end of the floor. in the academic doesn't help that DA has school and until full stone hands sissy mode tonight. I feel like they ought to pump him full of energy drinks at every break in the action.

Boston isn’t even playing that well, but we just got nothing tonight.

Book hasn’t been good for six games in a row now and Ayton has shrunk from his very good play in 3 of the last 4 games.

we ain’t playing mediocre and bad teams anymore boys. This is gonna be a dogfight almost every game from now until... hopefully sometime this summer. Gotta start stepping up their game instead of stepping back.

Ayton has been mostly invisible.

You’re right about tonight but we DID just beat the Bucks and 6ers...

Ayton will not even try and challenge Tristan Thompson.

Torrey Craig is the only guy fighting for rebounds.

disappointing stretch from Ayton the last 3 of 4. Hopefully he puts an end to that against the Nets. I mean... he just threw out an easy dunk for a missed theee because he didn’t he look at the basket. Hope that three week stretch wasn’t just another mirage. We need him to play big with the schedule just being brutal from herein.

No it’s the typical calls go to the aggressor. We just aren’t that.

and got obliterated by the Spurs and handled pretty easily by Boston. We’ve been very inconsistent lately.

this game is over. Kemba just owned us and Book continues a rough road.

If Ayton had done that all game we would be tied. And his awful hands haunt us again.

Ayton drops another rebound out of bounds. Come on dude. The Celtics have ZERO size.
