3/5 vs. Knicks

[Ale Xander]

Too late to bring Ime back?

You have to call time out there and set up a play. That's malpractice.

Looks like they had a play in mind, but it just wasn't there. And no time for Plan B.

 

[dhellers]

I don't know. Jaylen needs to be smart enough to start the play faster.

Nah, they were going to take a shot at the last second no matter what

We got the Tatum iso a TO would have generated anyway and didn’t allow the Knicks to substitute defensively. I like the No TO with :13 on the clock there for that reason and force Quickley to stay on the floor.

 

[128]

C's are in trouble when Quickley attacks the basket.

 

[Ed Hillel]

It seemed like Jayson got through and had a pretty easy shot tbh.

 

[The Mort Report]

I like the no TO. They had plenty of time to know exactly what they wanted to run. A TO only creates a greater chance of a turnover on a set inbound

 

[luckiestman]

I’m practicing hard core stoicism at this moment

 

[Don Buddin's GS]

It would be great to get DWhite in there but who do you take out?

 

[Divertypeguy]

quickly with 50 minutes.... incredible performance from him

 

[ifmanis5]

FFS

 

[Ale Xander]

shit

 

[128]

Nah, they were going to take a shot at the last second no matter what

Tatum could have used another second or two for his move.

 

[Auger34]

I don't know. Jaylen needs to be smart enough to start the play faster.

That possession didn’t look good from the start. Smart letting the ball roll for fucking ever, it appeared to have no rhythm. I always think it’s smart to take timeouts in that situation in the first place, especially off of a made basket

 

[Tudor Fever]

Are substitutions allowed in the game of basketball?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Nice D

 

[worm0082]

Great defense there

 

[The Social Chair]

Smart/Celtics always gets worked by small quick guards.

Quickly hasn’t left the floor since the second half. He wasn’t getting taken off the floor there

 

[shawnrbu]

Did he call Smart Randle?

 

[djbayko]

Nah, they were going to take a shot at the last second no matter what

Starting the play earlier is not inconsistent with taking a shot at the last second. Did you see how rushed Tatum was?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Can someone fact check the claim that guy makes that Tatum shoots 51% and is the all time leader in FG % in the last minute in close games?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

It would be great to get DWhite in there but who do you take out?

Smart, now.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Get a fucking rebound

 

[128]

Huge offensive rebound by Randle. Fuck.

 

[ifmanis5]

It would be great to get DWhite in there but who do you take out?

Smart.

 

[Divertypeguy]

would love to get that 6th foul on randle now too

 

[Ed Hillel]

Grant Williams didn't box out

 

[lars10]

Are substitutions allowed in the game of basketball?

This is what Joe does.. no TOs and rides the same lineup forever.

 

[Obscure Name]

Too tired to box out.

 

[The Social Chair]

Did Joe finally realize that substitutions are allowed in OT?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Unreal

 

[Ale Xander]

Someone rebound FFS

 

[Ale Xander]

Did Joe finally realize that substitutions are allowed in OT?

Nope Smart fouled out

 

[Preacher]

This is going well.

 

[Obscure Name]

Those minutes getting to Tatum.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Did they change the rule about inbounding to the backcourt?

 

[Ed Hillel]

God he's been so bad down the stretch

 

[Ed Hillel]

lol how

 

[Manzivino]

Maybe we could change up the defense that has Grant get switched onto Quickley every possession.

 

[Ale Xander]

Someone please guard Earl Monroe

 

[Obscure Name]

Did they change the rule about inbounding to the backcourt?

Needs to be out of a timeout.

 

[dhellers]

Did they change the rule about inbounding to the backcourt?

Only can do that after timeouts

 

[128]

How is Quickley not running on fumes?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Steal

This

Shit

 

[Ed Hillel]

We have the Cavs tomorrow lol

 

[lars10]

Hart holds Tatum on every fucking possession and then is exasperated whenever he's called for a foul

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Swimming in quicksand with this damn crap franchise

 

[ifmanis5]

Quickly is basically Ja Morant tonight.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Quickly hasn’t left the floor since the second half. He wasn’t getting taken off the floor there

It was an end of game defensive set. I guarantee 100% Thibs of all people is going to put his best defensive unit on the floor. Even Jokic gets pulled in some end of game spots.
