I don't think the Celtics should ever not have one of Brogdon or Tatum on the floor in this game. Otherwise the Heat just zone up and the Celtics don't have anyone that will dribble penetrate and not turn the ball over.

Following this game sporadically while at a restaurant and the swings in the score in the last 20 minutes or so have been insane.

It sure would be nice if the officials decided to actually call that moving screen both ways tonight.

Once again the Heat coach making adjustments to kill our offense and having his team executing extremely well and I’m gonna get lectured about how I know nothing about basketball if I think this is in any way attributable to our coach.

Would it be crazy to bump up Tatum's playoff minutes? He's out of the game a lot.
He's leading the playoffs in minutes per game among players still playing. That includes a game where he only played 19 minutes because they won by 34.

Just like a QB has a clock in his head when to throw the ball away, an NBA head coach needs to have the same. In my mind, it's three unanswered baskets and you call timeout to figure out what the fuck is going on.

You get like 7 a game, and can't take them with you.

As a note on timeout usage, one reason most coaches are going to wait there if they can is that they want to be able to bring the star back in, Tatum couldn't have come back in earlier, at some point you have to be able to trust your guys to play for 3 minutes without fucking up
