Interesting what a little defense and ball movement can do. Team cigar for me. Tatum was cold-blooded, and Horford and Grant stood out.

Not sure if this was mentioned in the GT, but I can't remember any dumb decisions by Brown tonight. He also played a rare selfless game. Four assists, 1 turnover.

9 down, 7 more to go.

After what happened Sunday night I'm just happy this team got a win and didn't fold. Tatum gets the victory cigar but white played well and Horford hit some shots.

It's still a major concern the amount of threes Boston takes. 45 threes with a 40% shoiting just isn't sustainable.

My rant: this game pisses me off as well and I'll tell you why: Not taking anything away from Miami they play hard and they're well coached but it's so goddamn annoying that a team with this much talent can't bring this almost every night. It's absolutely absurd they're down 3-1 now.

Let's hope for a momentum swing. Now get this to 3-2 at home.

JT smokes it.

As cliche as it sounds, one game at a time.

Good win!

Good. They played defense for most of the game. Bad. Jaylen still cannot shoot. 3/25 from 3 and even 3/9 FT's in the series.

Stay humble. Stay focused. Stay together. One game at a time. One possession at a time. [insert all the cliches].

Tatum legit is top 3 when he’s consistent. Grant showed up. JB has been awful, wonder if it’s injury. He’ll need to show up if we stand a chance. I see this going to at least 6. If 7, we win tbh

Also this is the best I’ve ever seen Joe coach. Had actual emotion, took timeouts when needed, team didn’t look extremely lost on offense and defense like rest of series

Defense and Ball Movement on offense which leads to open shots and makes. It’s really that simple

Win Game 5 at home and put a ton of pressure on the Heat to win Game 6.

Return to Boston Celtics
