Grant inexplicably giving Jokic trouble was so strange, looking back

Grant got beat repeatedly but Timelord was behind him to clean things up.

Tatum took too long to make his move.

One thing JT needs to work on is making his move quicker in the post. Wayyy too slow there. Holiday as a vet should know the clock better but the fault mostly goes to JT for taking way too long

Really bad spacing by holiday on that last play.

It's when the starters have to rest that the Celtics will have an edge.

Brown and Tatum seem nervous, whereas Derrek White has been very quiet.
Porzingis star of the Celtics show, but hopefully the pressure isn't getting to this team.
Avoid isolation ball and hit open shots.

JT and the Cs still getting a feel for what the Nuggets will do on defense.

Once our guys figure it out, the offense will be smoother.

Hey Al, stop talking to Jok. You can recruit him after the game.

Jaylen might have made the layup if he didn't try to dunk it.

In his brain he was thinking "me dunk hard, highlight reelz." He cocked the ball back and that put the ball right in Gordon's swipe.

would it be more effective to focus on denying the inlet pass to jokic in the post? try to keep the ball out his hands altogether. once he catches it in the post hes unstoppable
