C'mon Boston you can't have Smart taking these last second shots. Contested or not someone else -preferably Tatum- has to be the shooter.
Also lol at the the commentators literally talking about Mazzulla always wanting to save two timeouts until the end, then not using one either time, then having a **** possession both times.

So the Celtics "let them play" tactic is to have Smart take 3 point shots?

Tatum has to take the shot if he takes that much time off the clock. Dumb.

I'm sorry. But Tucker guarding Brown 1v1 all game is actually insane.
There needs to be a price paid for that.

Man, Embiid had 34/13 on 26 shots. Let's not pretend Joel didn't show up.

Should brown have doubled? Worst that could have happened was an Embiid 2 and it’s a tie game

Gawd dayum Harden was clutch as hell.

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Letting your team play it out when the game is tied, sure. Letting them play it out when you're down 1, ehhhhh.
