    Imagine having backcourt players who can shoot.

    There's one thing we couldn't fail to do tonight.

    Hit the 3.

    Not only not making any, not taking any. Not saying we shood be chucking, but we've passed some up too. We won't keep up with them on only 2s.

    Celtics are just a cut above the rest, we're honestly not playing too badly. We're defending well but they're just making the contested 3's

    The Rockets ain't gonna have much of a shot in this game if they give up 75% shooting to the Celtics.

    Bit late but why did we go with Jeff Green as starter when he’s only played 9 games of junk time? Why not try Amen?

    Edit. I’m dumb forgot he’s still suspended

    That’s the difference in the game. They’re hot for 3. They made 4 l, we made one. That’s the deficit

    Not to keep beating a dead horse but the starting guards can't compete with teams like the Celtics. It's tough when you can't shoot.

    If the rockets don’t make a trade someone should be fired. This team is not deep and aren’t even real contenders when healthy.
