    Look at how much separation they get when Kanter screens.

    It's Stotts' defensive philosophy to have the big sag. It's been that way for years.

    Mario may be the worst Blazer ever, but I truly don't get the love for Gabriel.
    The Celt's are pretty big inside, not sure Wenyen's 165 lbs. would fare too well...
    Just my opinion.

    I'm sorry but if it hasn't killed you the last 7 years why would tonight be the final straw?

    We stop them getting to 30 but they shot 58 percent from the 3.

    three straight marcus smart threes after two tatum threes in the same quarter was too much.

    we used to at least force midrange shots, now there's no chase over the screen even. Ant and CJ did nothing.

    Why can’t we guard the three? How hard is that?

    Apparently it's now an offensive foul if the defender isn't paying attention and just runs into someone's elbow.

    Maybe he is the only smart one that knows the 2-3 zone off a baseline inbound pass is stupid.
