Derrick White is an amazing two-way player.

Celtics are playing without Porzingis and yet have 9 offensive rebounds in the first half lol.

In unrelated news, Eubanks is -10 with a whopping 1 rebound and pts for the first half.

We can't turn the ball over AND get dominated on the offensive glass every single game.

More Young and less Eubanks please.

Also, Saben Lee makes me miss Josh Okogie's shooting.

Or, you know, shoot with your right hand and shield with your left and body. White was contorted and out of position to defend had Oneale shot with his right.

Beal really playing like an average player. Our only hope is to get KD the ball in the post

Turnovers and the glass the main issues

I like O'neale, but he's a terrible finisher around the rim.I don't think I've actually seen him make a lay up since he got here lol...But it's good to see KD staying aggressive.If only Beal can get hot in the 2nd half...

Doris Burke on the money about how the Suns are playing lethargic as hell like they don’t want to be here. Celtics are the exact opposite and while their shot’s not falling, their working 2-3x as hard as Phoenix.

It’s a Saturday night, I bet all Suns players are waiting to get off work and hit the club after.

this one is looking grim, was really hoping Book would play. You knew Boston would come out on fire after losing to DEN and then getting roasted in the media for being 2-4 against the west's elite, didn't have much hope for this one.

So many utterly awful shot attempts. It seems like we're afraid to go to the basket and try to earn it there. We're settling for long jumpers as always and tonight is NOT our night.

OMG. Nurkic was stupid to bite on that Horford fake.

Why a foul on Allen? That was just a solid pick. I thought this was a man's game?

I don't get how that's a foul on GA, it's just a solid pick.

Glad he laid that butt ugly White out though. We ain't punks !

Tatum gets away with a lot on the offensive end. The contact by Beal was minimal.
