Boston Celtics MISTAKES crushed them down the stretch, winning streak OVER in Portland
Who wanted it less? The Celtics, who turned it over FOUR times in the final 1:08. It was mistakes, miscommunications, and missed opportunities that killed Boston. Uncharacteristic play from the stars when it mattered. John Karalis has his initial reaction here, full podcast coming up later.

I’m very disappointed Celtics gotta be better and it’s just that simple I always get slander for saying the Celtics beat themselves after a loss but that’s exactly what happened in this one go Cs and onto the next
2 things.
We didn’t want the game. In a game we gave up 17 rebounds to Clingan, we still had a small ball lineup in and he got the and 1.
Nobody else stepped up after JB and maybe Hugo. DWhite, Simons, Pritchard didn’t bring any intensity offensively.
Portland is good but we didn’t play team basketball at all, and we looked like we had just got off the plane from a long flight.
Folks acting like Clingan is not a good rebounder. He’s 9th in the league I believe and we struggle on the boards-have for years now. That wasn’t the problem. It was the absolutely sloppy and careless play. Period. And we still almost won which tells you how “challenged” Portland is. Not their fault directly, but JB & White’s turnovers couldn’t have come at a worse time.
With JT out we can’t accept Pritchard and Derrick White up and down. This is unacceptable from them
I think DWhite + PP get too many min for Minott to get 0 min, Walsh to have his min dwindle and Simons to be under 20min.
And Baylor has been ok but why is he eating at Minott and Walsh min?
