Just hang on until the 3s fall again.


Starting to think the 3’s won’t fall for us tonight. Gotta do it another way.

If we somehow pull this out then Dallas gonna be devastated. I can’t see us play much worse than this.

Hate to give Lively a dunk and allow him some energy. Again we have some open shots. Need to cash in

Seems like one of those games that Boston never gets on track with their 3 point shooting

Yep. Feels like a big lost opportunity to go up 7 in this game. Just awful showing.

Joe starting to move away from what worked in Game 1 and is now trying to double Luka. Let him have his shots. Don't let him get his teammates going.

The lack of effort on loose balls is more concerning. It's the Finals.

Why are they acting like it's a Wednesday night in January?

Definitely one of those games. We need to go back to Kristaps on the elbow or post.

If we move the ball and someone has a light open 3 we still have to take it.. But again keep attacking Luca they are overloading to help him
