10/27: Heat@Celtics

[Jed Zeppelin]

Maybe Jaylen just loves a good narrative.

But actually they don’t run any offense, apparently, so it’s hard to blame anyone for not looking great. One guy does ISO and everyone else does 4 corners, good offense. Is this what we brought in extra coaches for?

 

[bankshot1]

Zinger can’t take that 3.

On the bright side Celts had 4 back on D.

 

[Euclis20]

Herro is the most punchable guy in the league and it’s not close.

Grayson Allen, but there can be more than one.

 

[103mph Screwball]

Jaylen Brown in midseason form

 

[bohous]

I don’t understand how Miami always historically plays the Celtics so tough. On pace to allow 40 points this quarter.

Well, they are a pretty good team.

 

[slamminsammya]

everyone complaining about the offense but we gonna give up 40 this quarter

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Offense is reminiscent of the first half of 2021-22. They’ll figure it out just like that team figured it out.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Woof.

 

[radsoxfan]

Jaylen Brown in midseason form

I wish. He was pretty good midseason.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Jaylen scored. Hallelujah!!

 

[Just a bit outside]

Brissett over Kornet is a good move.

 

[Ale Xander]

How are they down double figures to this trash team?

 

[bohous]

I love points in the paint. More please

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Just look at the number of screens they set compared tot he Celtics.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hauser just locked up Jimmy. No exaggeration

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Don’t get embarrassed don’t get embarrassed don’t get embarrassed

 

[radsoxfan]

Al looks 50 years old to start this game

 

[osori]

Jaylen!!

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

So are they just not going to call contact on Miami?

 

[Manzivino]

Getting a lot of layup opportunities at least

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Love to see JB roasting smaller guys on the perimeter.

 

[ifmanis5]

Brissett broke the board.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hauser just locked up Jimmy a bit before the server took a break. No exaggeration. Impressive.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Jaquez looks like he's getting ready to set sail for the New World.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Stepped out of bounds and got his 3 blocked. Welcome to the NBA.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Love to see JB roasting smaller guys on the perimeter.

Is that Inigo Montoya? This late 1st quarter is a mess.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Oshae making things happen.

 

[slamminsammya]

brissett a one man wrecking crew on the boards

 

[Manzivino]

it’s like they forget how to play basketball against this team sometimes:

 

[ifmanis5]

OSHAE!

 

[timelysarcasm]

I think fewer minutes for Horford is going to be a a huge plus - he's spry and active out there.

 

[osori]

LOL

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

OKAE BRISSETT IS A STUD

 

[The Mort Report]

I think that was after the buzzer

 

[OnWisc]

I think that was after the buzzer

I think you’re right.

 

[benhogan]

Brissett has a nose for the ball

 

[Just a bit outside]

Celtics have been doubling on the end of quarter possessions since the preseason. Interesting wrinkle.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I think that was after the buzzer

Let’s check the tiny monitor!

Hand might have brushed arm but who knows.

 

[OnWisc]

It was also just light contact, so….

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Love the addition of Brissett as a guy who is just going to work his ass off because that’s what a guy like him needs to do to stay in the league.

Same reason a lot of us wanted to bring back Javonte Green. Need the grit.

 

[SteveF]

Interesting. The implication is that if it were a flagrant, the fact that it occurred after the end of the quarter would mean the player would still get free throws. I wonder how many. 3? or just 1 for the tech?

Also, I did notice prior to the season Brissett did have a significant impact on Indiana's offensive rebounding on/offs. I guess we're seeing why.

 

[Euclis20]

Curious to see how it develops as the season goes on, but Horford seems like a bundle of energy coming off the bench for the first time in his career. This has resulted in some good things (he's flying all over the place in transition and blocking multiple 3 point attempts) and some bad things (5 turnovers for him in 32 total minutes).

 

[bankshot1]

That qtr had disaster stamped on it but Brissett said fuck that

 

[mikeot]

I think fewer minutes for Horford is going to be a a huge plus - he's spry and active out there.

That will be huge.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Jaylen made some big plays to help turn that quarter around.

 

[McBride11]

So, uh, Brissett?

Also had no idea it was pronounced Brishett not like Jacoby BrisseTT

 

[OnWisc]

Tatum taking it to the 4th Musketeer.

 

[ifmanis5]

White fell on his back and that looked painful.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Miami is allowed so much contact.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

That happens way too often to White. Just swallowed up and wrecked.

 

[McBride11]

That is his shoulder Doris. His forearm was tucked in holding the ball.
