lazebron

Every blown lead starts with laziness!

Against the Pacers, LeBron put together a string of lazy plays that turned a 17 point lead into a 7 point lead in less than 2 minutes.

Missing shots when you’re coming back from injury is one thing. This is completely controllable. pic.twitter.com/cQX9kBJgL6

hes old give him a break!

must be nice to be able to push all the blame to russ, too

pretty good game dubs got a real nice look there

luka +22 in a 3pt game this is like the young lebron cavs all over again

Incredible game. I think the refs called about 25 travels no joke

blazers really tossed this one straight into the trash can boo

Yah they did.

Really was a great play to get klay a wide open look

You take this shot every time. Brilliant play design from Steve Kerr using Jordan Poole as a screener for Klay with Steph screening his own man to prevent a switch. That was a good look, just didn't go in. pic.twitter.com/xsu7kjFhYN

refs are out of control

Haberstroh is on it

There was a whopping 10 travel calls in the GSW-DAL game last night. 6 in NYK-DET and another 3 in LAC-POR.

That's 6.3 per game. 5x last season's average, 4x this October's average.

A massive crackdown on travels all across the NBA ... 👁️🪬👁️ https://t.co/oXIZTeUmWj

luka doing the payola signal to the refs again

Textbook charge, yet Luka appears to be insinuating the refs are getting money to make calls against the home team pic.twitter.com/g6TPBm56F0

breakdown of all the travels

now call the carries

yeah im more interested in the carries than the happy feet

imo all carries and travels should be called att

imo all carries and travels should be called att

the game might ever end. would probably be like 100+ calls per game

my god the british royals are at the celtics game who let this happen

i invited them sorry

lol hoping for a sideline scramble for a loose ball that just takes that row out

this is against the celtics roots (irish)

this is really sad to me and the bulls season and future outlook is pretty f'd

Billy Donovan on Lonzo Ball’s recovery ahead of today’s game: “It’s been really slow.”

Lonzo is not running, jumping or cutting and Billy says he’s not “anywhere close” to returning to contact. Billy adds that he “still has pain” although there have been improvements.

yeah not great

yeah bulls have fully fizzled out with this iteration of the team, they need to rebuild again

didnt realize vooch is expiring. yikes are they gonna pay him?

caruso is probably the most valuable trade asset they have right now

curséd franchise since 98 really, deal with the devil (Michael Jordan)

haslem is playing lol

remember when they threw him an alley-oop last season? i think about that from time to time

the prince probably requested him

id rather like to see a bit of udonis haslem if its not too much trouble

its not that the celtics are a bad defensive team quite the opposite actually but they do refuse to play it its beneath them

tatum 25 points less than half through the 2nd quarter

loool salute

They tried showing the royals on the jumbotron with a big announcement and security literally stepped in front of the camera while people booed

sorry about ol' lizzie luvs

this game streaky as hell. c’s have tightened up the d but it still looks like bam is having his way with horford tbh

you think weve freakin forgotten about paul revere, sam adams and so forth

They show the Prince and Princess on the JumboTron and "USA!" chants come from the crowd. #Celtics #Heat

and he was laughing he was laughing about it

Tatum dropped 28 points on the Heat in the first half 🔥 pic.twitter.com/Y8u5dqNHzy

pretty good game, many points

lmao everyone hates them

Joe Mazzulla asked if he got to meet with the royal family: "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph? I’m only familiar with one royal family. I don’t know too much about them. But hopefully, they’re Celtics fans."

— Jared Weiss (@JaredWeissNBA) December 1, 2022

mazzulla is low-key hilarious

Y’all Booker 51 through 3

But they’re up 25 so might not play any more

jamal murray seems to be turning a corner, you love to see it

only one game tonight, we are all contractually obligated to watch it

what a horrific game lol

def some weird scheduling this season so far
