I’m a huge fan of this Magic team. I think Banchero is Lebron like in his size/skill/fluidity. But we Mo Wagner has three or four highlight dunks on you. In one game. You’ve got some issues defensively. They’re 9-20. I like some of the young players, but this is as pathetic a performance as you’ll see. My point exactly. About a quarter of the YouTube tv key plays consisted of Mo Wagner dunks. That’s problematic

You don't want to see 46 3 point attempts on 82 FG attempts in almost any game. Common theme in most losses is they get out rebounded by 10 plus rebounds. Yet in this game you had Horford and Robert Williams actually rebounding well given their minutes. Just your classic low effort overlooked a crappy team and you got a loss because of it.

Just looked at the game, was out, listening to the Pats. Turnover issue rearing it's head again

I know they missed Tatum the second game, but losing two to the Magic is pretty inexcusable.

Weirdly, the Phoenix blow out seems to have broken the Celtics a bit. Weird

Absolute joke by a team who started thinking they were world beaters before winning anything significant. Despicable.
We aren't winning anything if we can't beat the Magic at home. Bucks will stomp us.

I know they missed Tatum the second game, but losing two to the Magic is pretty inexcusable. It wasn't because of a lack of effort as people claimed last game. Pritchard hardly played even when we were undermanned. Free this guy, please. If he misses his first shot...on the bench. Wagner and Bol Bol looked much better than Kornet who sparingly plays. His lateral foot speed on defense is lacking. It appears that we kept the wrong guy.

From the looks of it I'm glad I missed the game today. One thing I don't understand is how good the team has been shooting 3's except for the J's. With Jason out you needed a big game from Brown and 2-10 from 3 is not going to get it done.

With Jason out you needed a big game from Brown and 2-10 from 3 is not going to get it done. Defense was tight on Jaylon and all 3 point shooters. In the early season we got a lot of open 3 looks. That is less so now. Has the league adjusted to us? We have little or no inside threat that would help with kick outs. Grant tried his best today by attempting often to penetrate as did White and Brogdan. Today reinforced to me that without the Js, we are not a playoff team. We need both operating at a proficient level. Jayson probably would have been the difference today.

Actually I know Orlando has a bad record but we went down there they were a pain in the ass. Still doesn't excuse the losses. I am sure Brad is taking notes and going to strike at the deadline.

This team commits some of the dumbest turnovers imaginable.
Grow up.

Embarrassing display from a clown team who thought they won the NBA title after being 1st place one quarter into the season.
Disgusting.

That first quarter was brutal. Worst first quarter of the season.

Truly just taken to task by a bum Indiana team at home after being swept by the lottery Magic.
Absolutely unacceptable.

Seems they're lost themselves. This is when we get to see if Mazzulla has real coaching skill - or the respect of the players. They'll figure it out, the question is in how long it will take

Welcome back wcp3..I have, at least, missed your full on negativity. Celtic players are soft, clowns, quitters etc. Go Sox...Go Pats...or wait... go Bruins. Maybe some Boston team gets it right and is worthy.

Maybe some Boston team gets it right and is worthy. Actually, I’ve been here posting throughout the season, including when they were winning every game by a thousand. You just choose to ignore those posts.

That first quarter was brutal. Worst first quarter of the season. Anyone notice how poorly both teams shot on the basket on the left and conversely how well on the right?

Listening to Grandy and Max. Tuned in at the beginning of the 3rd. They are bemoaning all the missed layups. What's up with that?
Also bemoaning the Brown turnovers
