It's almost like we have a non-shooter who's killing all spacing.
Also he's only shot 2 threes prior to that one, both open threes on catch and shoot.

JB and Jrue doing their part trying to take it inside then kick out when there's nothing there. But you gotta attack the paint.

JB playing a lot better lately

Can we ban those holiday type of bs threes?! Nobody should be taking that shot including Tatum unless someone is red hot.

He only wants to shoot 3’s if given the choice. Even if he can’t hit anything, he still shoots them non stop.

Magic also shouldn't get a bucket off transition when speed is supposed to be our only advantage.

Magic team ar aggressive at attacking us inside and running. Meanwhile, we attack inside only to pass it back out to chuck a 3. Celtics basketball smh
