KP should never be on the ball. He's more effective as a help defender.

I think Rice is more a Miami guy.

He was drafted there and played 6 years for the Heat.

But it was a great trade for Miami as they got Mourning in return for Rice.

Miller is really a great shooter, but his body reminds me of Matt Bullard.

I love White and Pritchard pushing pace like that.

Guys, this is an April game with the 1st seed secured. They are not trying.

I still don't understand why KP has to take these threes more than a foot away from the line. They're almost always short.

We're letting them hang around. Defense never really picked up.

Jrue could've rested in this one. Be fresh for the OKC game.

Maybe the Cs want a close game so that they can practice late game execution.

Tatum is such a wanker. KP is fighting for post position, but **** Tatum decides to chuck a contested three. Boston won't win jack **** with Tatum as number one option. **** that guy.

I like guys that compete all the time and don't take games off. This team hasn't accomplished anything and there's something to be said for building good and bad habits as we saw in ATL.

The team is playing it's worst basketball of the season. Lazy offense and defense on this road trip for the most part.

This team basically has nothing to play for the rest of the regular season. Not a great time to be playing our laziest, worst ball of the season but it’s clear they’re just on cruise control the past two weeks
