1/17 vs SAS - Doesn't it mean 'Saint Antonio?'
- Thread starter OnWisc
- Start date
Marquee rookie (markqueest? Of the last 15 years) and it’s an individual player vs team sport for the most part
Defense ok, but offense is just "my turn your turn" jacking it up. May be enough vs these guys, but would like to see more attacking. Even wtih Wemby hanging around
This is a go through the motions then turn it on for half a quarter and next thing you know it’s a 25 point lead kind of game.
Tatum has driven right at Wemby three times---layup, dunk, pass for a layup.

I tend to fret about Tatum's dry spells, but when the dude is on he is a total cheat code.
BTW: what up with DW. He did need a break...

Rare GT appearance, to point out that Jaylen, Tatum, Al, Pritch, and Holiday are a combined 13-16 from three.
Not a lot of defensive grit this game. 9 total fouls and I wouldn't say the refs have been letting dudes play.
PBPstats has the Celtics shot quality at just 49%, but their actual EFG% is 74%. Shooting 68.4% from 3 will do that.
Spurs lead in true shot attempts 50-47.

It wasn't just the voice.. it was the combo of: being a homer to an extent that would make even Tommy Heinsohn blush, all of his catch phrases (fiddlin and diddlin), and the all out passion he had for the game ("OH, THE YELLOW, GUTLESS WAY THEY DO THINGS HERE!").
And the man could describe a basketball game... I fell asleep many nights to the Celtics and Johnny. Actually went to a charity softball game in Needham where I think he was MC for the night.. I still have his autograph from that night... as well as Dom DiMaggio, Jim Nance (NEP), Rick Middleton, Dave Cowens, Rick Miller and various other sports celebrities.
