Ever. He got tackled on that rebound where he dropped it to Al.Man, they sure are allowing a ton of contact on the great Jayson Tatum tonight. Fucker can't buy a call.

Except the first quarter.Can't believe it. Heat hits a three, so Tatum rushes a sh*tty three, just so they can get that two for one that never, never works. All season long. Never.
He’s much better with football. The orgasm every single basket style annoys me.Go fuck yourself, Kevin Harlan.
Does anyone have confidence this will actually happenClose game. Come out with the exact opposite energy and execution from the Game 1 third quarter and I like the C’s chances.
I was hoping to wish it into reality.Does anyone have confidence this will actually happen
I agree with this...Heat are tougher in half court and Celtics have both depth and athleticism if they get out there.Celtics need to run run run run run run. Every play. Make the Heat keep up with them.
at some point, Joe will realize that putting Tatum at the FT line is better than having Tatum initiate from the top against the zone.There’s no way a coach could anticipate the Heat might use zone this series
Nope. They’re either going to shoot lights out from 3 or lose. They’re not winning this one with defense and execution.Does anyone have confidence this will actually happen
yep he had a couple misses in a row. White was hot on wide open catch and shoots, mostly off Tatum actions.I thought he did start missing and had a turnover or two.
Miami have been playing zone or a semi zone and have plenty of bodies at the 3 point line. We aren’t able to drive to setup the drive and kick 3. Spolestra was openly talking about it in the huddle they showed and knows that if they can reduce our volume of high quality threes we don’t have a lot of other ways to beat them. They’re playing really smart, really high execution basketball and it’s not going to change in our favor unless we find ways to make it easier for our offensive players. Right now we keep trying to do the same things and I dargue the degree of difficulty is way too high right now6 of 20 from 3 is the problem. Need to get up to 40% in the second half.
The guy wanted accolades for calling two timeouts in a quarter. Baby steps.at some point, Joe will realize that putting Tatum at the FT line is better than having Tatum initiate from the top against the zone.
Smart, Brogdon & White are all capable of getting that entry pass into Tatum
Smart isn't, he turned the ball over twice in 4 possessions trying to break the zone.at some point, Joe will realize that putting Tatum at the FT line is better than having Tatum initiate from the top against the zone.

They're shooting 41.7% from the field but 42.9% from 3. Seems like one of these unsustainable. They're (probably) not going to shoot 43% from 3.No way Miami can sustain a 42% FG rate.
We have too many guys who are much better at on-ball than off-ball and I don’t really trust they would get it right.I don't get why we don't have a zone, or some dramatically different defensive look we can throw at teams, to knock them off balance. Miami obviously does.
43 from 3 is perfectly reasonable. On the other hand, we should shoot better than 30% (but also not a crazy big outlier)They're shooting 41.7% from the field but 42.9% from 3. Seems like one of these unsustainable. They're (probably) not going to shoot 43% from 3.
Really disappointing. Feels bad to know any bargain SoSH analysis of this series would have stressed a plan for breaking the zone consistently.There’s no way a coach could anticipate the Heat might use zone this series
Jaylen can't figure out "guard the guy" off-ball and he's gonna play zone?I don't get why we don't have a zone, or some dramatically different defensive look we can throw at teams, to knock them off balance. Miami obviously does.
There is no sustainable or unsustainable in a short series, there is only what happens.They're shooting 41.7% from the field but 42.9% from 3. Seems like one of these unsustainable. They're (probably) not going to shoot 43% from 3.
me tooHe’s much better with football. The orgasm every single basket style annoys me.
We're set up for it, our guards are just morons. Al Horford is at the nail calling for the ball and Marcus is trying to make circus passes through 3 guys, or Tatum or Brown tries to go 1 v 3.Really disappointing. Feels bad to know any bargain SoSH analysis of this series would have stressed a plan for breaking the zone consistently.
The odd thing is they know what to do---every few trips they execute a perfect pass to middle and then to the open man. But then they drive into traffic, Smart tries to make an amazing pass, someone jacks a bad three...and Miami just ran six points off. I have a bunch of criticism of CJM...but they do seem to have the play for this.Really disappointing. Feels bad to know any bargain SoSH analysis of this series would have stressed a plan for breaking the zone consistently.
I mostly just remember unplugging my television and throwing it into the front yard.Remember in 2003 where the whole season it was like “this is a really talented team, sure hope this manager thing doesn’t come back to bite them…”
Caleb Martin. He should be very unhappy with his performance thus far. He has got to pick it up.All NBA JB getting thoroughly outplayed by Caleb Martin...
yep, the problem isn't that they don't know what to do, or the coaches don't have them set up and prepared... it's that it's boring to do the little things so our "big 3" refuse to do it, which really has been the same problem in all facets of this team for 3-4 years and 3 coachesThe odd thing is they know what to do---every few trips they execute a perfect pass to middle and then to the open man. But then they drive into traffic, Smart tries to make an amazing pass, someone jacks a bad three...and Miami just ran six points off

Totally agree with this. It is now or never and I'd be lying if I said I had very much confidence in this team right now. So disjointed and generally underachieversThis 2nd half is the season. Not gonna beat Miami 4 out of 5.
Yup. Need to see the effort level to match here.This 2nd half is the season. Not gonna beat Miami 4 out of 5.
My dad punched a hole in the wallI mostly just remember unplugging my television and throwing it into the front yard.
They can and will.At least there’s some solace there’s no way this team could handle Jokic and playoff Murray
If they need someone yelling at them I’d argue what’s the fucking point3rd quarter coming up. Hopefully they have KG or someone in there yelling at them to remind them of a sense of urgency
