book shoots the 3 while every other player aside from oso (who's behind the free throw line) is behind the 3 point line

they box oso out - nobody else collapses to the basket for the rebound or heads back down for defense - they all watch - including booker who didn't follow his shot or the defender flying by him after actually defending book's shot - because they actually play 3 point defense - anyways a celtic rebounds it and throws it up court where other celtics have to decide who gets to score it

The standings the announcers put up is misleading, as it didn't count the Suns loss tonight.

As bad as Beal played he shouldn’t even see the court the rest of the season! Doesn’t give a crap let the young guys play Beal just BS all night! Get this dude off the team even if you have to hit him out it’s a net positive!

I somewhat agree. I thought it was dumb to start him. He's been out how long? Bring him off the bench and see what he's got. If it ain't working, sit him. We need to try hard to unload him this summer but he should be shut down for the season.

I don't expect us to win this game. Won't keep me from hoping though, not
until reality smacks me in the face once again.
The Suns played about as well as could be expected against the mighty Celtics especially considering Beal's -23 contribution. Celtics just showed how good they are and how much we are outclassed at this point in time.

Why?! His shot is only good from 8 feet in.

I've seen Oso shoot the three in practice and it's not pretty. Actually, I don't know how Oso can even shoot it the way he does.

I simply want to see him shoot it in game action to see what it looks like in live action.
