Welcome to reality... If a player doesn't show up when it counts, he gets criticized! Shocker I know

Butler gotta come out super aggressive and look for his shot for the first couple possessions. If he starts hot, that's gonna calm everyone down and Heat should go on to win. He hasn't had a big this round so I expect this is going to be it.
This is still the same Celtics team that went down 0-3. If we can build an early lead, they will fold.
On the other hand if we let them build confidence they can get hot like they did last game and steal this. Especially Tatum.
Defensively we also get ditch the zone when its stops working. We cannot let him catch a rhythm. If he starts getting hot, we should look to send a double for a couple possessions to disrupt his rhythm. He's not an elite passer, so as long as we can rotate quickly out of the double we should be fine. For the last 2 games, on defense Spo tended to stick with something when its obvious it wasn't working anymore. Especially with the zone

Right thing to do. Nothing to take from the last 2 games other than the guys masturbated too much with a 3-0 lead and now have their back against the wall with the risk of losing HCA again

To be fair, winning NBA games is really hard. Particularly at this level. Boston is a good team, let’s not pretend they aren’t. We blew them out in game 3, but the other 2 games were all close down the stretch. It’s not easy to close a team out.
We’re fortunate that we have 4
(Hopefully 3…) opportunities to close them out and take this series. We’ve used up 2 of those lives. Still have 2 left (hopefully 1…)

Indeed but I don't want that 1-149 record
Would be the laughingstock for a while if that happens. Jimmy, Bam, and Spo should not let this happen.

I hate to say it but if we legit end up being the 1st team to ever lose after leading 3-0 this postseason was a failure lol.
We’re winning tomorrow though

I'm mostly confident that we'll get it done, but not gonna lie, this series starting to give some scripted vibes.

I’m sure the nba would love to build up the golden child Tatums resume, “the first player to ever come back from an 0-3 deficit and he did it at the age of 19”

maybe the NBA is in damage control to not sully the Celtics brand and/or Tatum
if the games were close, maybe... but that game 3 spanking to put them down 0-3 ... the whole world was saying "i cant believe this organization is going out like this!"
cue.. we lose next 2 games
maybe you're right, but that doesn't explain Jimmy. He's playing like ass. Embarrassing we called him MJ's son. Even if Jordan had a "bad" game, nobody questioned his effort.
But Jimmy... I'm still wondering how he missed point blank, wide open layups while standing under the rim. I mean, what.
