Any thoughts? I thought anything less than A- game, BOS would lose. Tatum shined, Irving did not.

Brown looks lost....Heyward is still trying to come back. Kyrie shot terrible.
We need to stop worh the terrible 2nd quarters. It takes too much energy to cone back that we don't have enough to finish the game off.

Too many guys just look awful and I can't understand why. Jaylen, Kyrie. Even Horford. I'm happy that at least Hayward is finding other ways to contribute.
I'm not sure if maybe Hayward, and to a lesser extent Kyrie are a step slow right now, so they can't really play the defense they need to play. But defensively the team stats are decent.
Other teams seem to want to kill them and they don't seem to have the ability to do much about it.

I got to listen to the game last night on Sirius XM on my phone. It seemed that they are all shooting a lot of 3s and they aren't going in. When they they the ball inside they do better but just from listening they were too intent on shooting 3s.
I also think Hayward is still not back 100% and they haven't figured out how to play together with both Kyrie and Hayward in the lineup. Also last night it sounded like they were tired with a lot of shots coming up short.

I'd agree they were tired. It's frustrating because they aren't doing great inside either. I see the passing, but not tons of attacking the basket and moving around. They just don't seem dynamic at all

I read on realgm.com that BOS is first in open shots, and [HASH]27 in making open shots. My take on Hayward is this, his shot is not falling however his defense is good, and his passing has been great.

Good to see Tatum not only shooting better, but just as important, being aggressive. We need him to play with the same attack mentality he had in the playoffs last year.

I was watching the full game highlights, and I definitely noticed Hayward can not penetrate the paint and score, however he has a high basketball IQ and he aware of who is around him to pass too. Brown maybe a confidence issue. Last year, during his big games he would get a little of something from anywhere which opened up everything.
