Celtics jacking up 3s in the clutch against GSW in the 2022 Finals is also what's happening to the Rockets now, under Udoka.

Ime is really not good on offense.


Plus we have Smart bricking every wide open 3’s in the clutch.

True!

Cavs peaking in the right moment. Pretty scary team. They play inside and out, and have home court.

Ime relies too much on Sengun spinning around and trying to make plays. He should get the ball, yes, but the offense is stiff.

In another year or two, with a little seasoning, this Rockets squad is gonna be some kind of tough out. I can see them duking it out with OKC for years.

Segun is so Hard to predict with his moves because I think sometimes his fakes are so unorthodox.

And on cue, Sengun spins right into Green, misses the shot.

Really?

More 1 on 1?

No creativity on offense.

I think I'm 60 seconds behind. But as of this post Houston has the ball with 16 seconds to go down by one.. Wow I wonder who gets the shot.

Udoka great defensive coach, but he's just not good on offense.

Houston is pathetic. I am not buying the warriors. They’re like the lakers. They’re gonna win this series due the incompetence of the rockets.

Glad of what? I hate the warriors. They already won their ships.

Super fun game.
Dillon Brooks one of the least mentally clutch players OF ALL TIME
Draymond as dirty as ever.
Crazy how many minutes Quinton Post is giving the Warriors as a 52nd pick
this should be a 2-2 series... but Warriors just outsmarted them

Postgame press con, Kerr joking and laughing.

He also said they did a good job forcing Sengun further away from the basket.

Yeah, because Ime didn't try to put Sengun in a better position to score.

Force a switch or use a down screen to put Sengun in the paint.

Return to Boston Celtics
