I'm not looking forward to this Saturday game with the Celtics.

Furthermore, the next ahead road games look brutal :devil:

With a 100% healthy Booker my expectations would be tempered. Without him they are lower. I really hope that this isn't an ugly blow out on our part. I want to see a competitive game but the Celtics are so damn good.

The only saving grace here is that we generally play at the level of our competition, so this should be a good game. ;)

Well, IF and that a big IF, we can keep it close in the final minutes of the fourth, I think KD > Tatum.

Have you been turning games before the 4th quarter this season? Tatum destroys KD, who’s amongst the worst 4th quarter players in the league this season.

I generally love Nurkic, but he's just killing us with these lazy Telegraphed passes. It seems like at least a couple of those get picked off for layups each and every game. I think it was Larry who mentioned if we could just get those and the KD cross court passing cleaned up it would really make a difference.

When we just play with confidence we can hang with anyone I feel like this team gets in their own heads when some shots don’t fall…

KD just fades too much sometimes when he doesn’t need to

Also two dumb turnovers in a row

We have on hit 1 3 pointer if we start hitting some this could go our way. Don’t not shoot them keep chucking can’t just try to beat a three point team by not shooting them…
