No one’s telling them to be robots, but possessions are a premium in the postseason. Someone needs to drill them about not wasting them. Run the stuff that most likely result in high % looks. This isn’t even about the defense. Over and over until it becomes second nature. Tatum just pressing with his pullups.

Lol we look for Stevens on the perimeter but Hauser is the invisible man…

Al outplaying KP tonight.

Keep in mind shooting isn't Stevens' strength and keep in mind this is basically his first game action in like 2 months lol. It's no surprise his shooting is off..

We were like a +5 with Lamar in the game.

His shooting percentage drops so much because of that..

Ugh another fall away

Tatum hit a couple and then went on a bad shot spree!

I don’t understand why this team doesn’t realise as soon as they stop moving the ball is generally when they put up bad shots. If they stuck to that consistent ball movement we wouldn’t be in these positions all the time.

God it’s infuriating to watch.

It’s not a Celtics game until White makes a big three

Tatum has horrid shot selection.

The Cavs took away the first option and Tatum had to make something happen.
