Everyone has been great except Jaylen, which is so weird, he was so much better all year, playoff game 1 he forgets what to do on offense
Funny part about this game is I don’t think the celts played great and they are up 15 at half. Kind of amazing.
Congrats to the Heat on overcoming the early 14 point deficit and cutting it to 15 at the half. That is some heart / Heat Culture.
You can't complain with a 15 pt half time lead, so I wont. I'm holding my complaints like CJM held TOs last year
Yup. At least two missed rotations since getting subbed back in. Someone needs to talk to him.
Don't know that Tatum should have played 21 minutes int he half but that's a relatively minor concern.
pretty much, right after Hauser missed his 2nd 3-point shot
ESPN is horrid, good move by throwing this on mute
Was thinking about this yesterday.... is Perk the worst former player analyst ESPN has ever had in any sport?
Most of their 3's were really contested though. They have noone that can create space against our guards.
Perk and Wilbon are on their own planet when it comes to the Celtics, who are they responding to? PUMP THE BRAKES!!!
Pretty good first half. Too much isoball from Brown and soft D at the end are areas for improvement though.
One nice thing....
Yes you would expect the Heat to shoot better at some point (though low volume from 3 too is an issue).......
But also for all that it felt like an avalanche of 3s..... Celtics basically shot their season average from 3, they will have better shooting nights, some worse too, but this is not one of the shooting outlier games for the series so far.

it really feels like he’s come in thinking “I’m going to prove everyone wrong!” and in the process he proves everyone right. He wants to play 1 on 5 instead of finding his teammates. It’s noticeably different than the approach the rest of the team is taking.
