We are basically at the quarter mark of this season. This is now a statistically relevant sample size. This needs to be seriously addressed within the team.
I would imagine a big part of it is the Celtics have basically had the halftime lead in every game and they are letting their foot off the gas to start these halves. There needs to be a mindset shift in how they address the third quarters or it will continue to cost them games and cost them much more when it matters in May/June

Definitely need to fix that. Every game we’ve lost we’ve absolutely sucked in the third quarter. Odd.

Reminds me of how they got destroyed by Miami in every 3rd quarter in the bubble. Tatum and Brown don’t know how to play with a lead and never have

The more this team changes the more they stay the same.

It does indicate we are not making quality halftime adjustments. What is the analytics team telling Joe and Co., and what are Joe and Co. telling the players?

We are not winning a championship without a significant mental boost in terms of confidence and ability to perform consistently from Tatum. Everyone has blame here, but Tatum (and Brown) have all been part of the last 6-7 years, and these issues persist.

I’m surprised they are that high
