Celtics allowed 127.5 points per 100 possessions in Game 3 per @cleantheglass. That’s their fourth-worst defensive performance of the year.

Still only lost by what 8….Celtics literally have to play average defense, rebound better and the Hawks not hit every contested shot they take and everything else will take care of itself.
Can’t be getting dad dicked by the hawks like that. Teams still soft as hell
Regular season intensity out there
Rough, looked more like a scrimmage than a playoff game
Felt like a bottom 5 defensive game for sure. They just didn’t have it. Dudes were getting open runs to the rim and open shots all night, and then you give them confidence by letting them grab offensive boards when they do miss. Trae is so fucking annoying once he hits a couple, the bullshit he starts throwing up all starts going in, we can’t let him get going like that off our own mistakes.
no one is talking about it yet but this is a coaching issue. it’ll return before this is over. udoka would literally not permit these numbers. best defense in the league?? stop playing like assholes.
It didn’t even feel like we played bad on defense. Hawks were just hitting shots in our face and outreblunding us.
We was tired
Just quit playing with your food and take care of business.
