Cs should probably be down 25 so guess this is a moral victory.
Though hard to think positive with Tatum's ankle and their inability to score.

edit: and yes to defend at all.

I still can't get over the Brogdon minutes. 7 whole minutes when it was clear after 2 he should not be on the floor. Coaching malpractice.

Being down by 11 is pretty good all things considered. Bam being in foul trouble is massive.

let’s hope the shooting variance corrects itself in the 2nd half

I still don’t get the Tatum ISO to dribble out the clock at the end of the quarter and then taking a low percentage shot. It seems to rarely work.
Their rim protection was Hayward Highsmith and that three was the shot of choice

I have no way to watch so I’m watching via refreshing the thread— I’m shocked they are only down 11 based on the thread.

I’m staring a kangaroo court for every time someone says variance. You owe $5.

This is pretty much all a shot % half…not saying “shot luck” but the spread is pretty much 4 threes—-Celts at 19% on threes, Heat at 50%. Not sure the difference in shot quality close to that.

No award for “should have won on shot quality” and need to keep pressure up on D and keep attacking on offense. Second half of second quarter was better, but need to stay aggressive

They are playing better and seemed to have remembered they are the Boston Celtics. If it's only upwards from here, I believe.

Time and time again. I’d like to see how often our end of quarter play has actually worked. It must be much less than 10%.

Down 11 feels like a miracle. The Cs blow leads like these in 4 minutes, hopefully Miami can return the favor.

Tatum is 1/16 from 3.

Can someone please tell him that the stepback 3 at the end of every quarter might need be the right choice at the moment?

Tatum is at 80%. It’ll have to be enough.

Bad Grant and Bad Brogdon are in the house.

Jaylen needs to figure out the zone during halftime.

Need to prevent those momentum killing Heat threes. Little slow on a few coverages.

Bam with 3 fouls is important

White is playing well other than shots from three
