Boston Celtics stumble against the Dallas Mavericks, in another home loss after a road trip. Jayson Tatum had one of his worst games of the season, Klay Thompson couldn't miss in the first half, and the bench was thoroughly out-played when it mattered. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal breaks down the Celtics' performance, focusing on Tatum's struggles and the team's recurring issues. The episode explores the impact of new signing Torrey Craig, a defensive-minded wing, and how he fits into the Celtics' evolving lineup. Karalis also examines the bench's performance and potential lineup changes to boost the team's energy and focus. Tune in for an in-depth analysis of the Celtics' challenges and strategies.
