What are we doing here lol

Tatum 18/3/2 on 12 shots, +12
Jaylen 21/5/1 on 15 shots, -4

Plus minus doesn’t matter for a half, but I’m not sure what you saw?

Can't tell if Froob is trolling. Prior to that stretch, JB wasn't playing well on both ends. He started the 3-pt barrage by the Heat in the 1st by being nowhere near his man.

Yeah, I'm slightly annoyed but not worried. I expected this to likely be Miami's best game of the series. I think they played about as well as they are capable of in the first half.

I’m confused lol.

Jaylen had an amazing stretch there.

Tatum has been awesome on both ends.

Clearly the Celtics need to guard the 3. Makes no sense. Coaching staff asleep at the wheel the last 2 days.

Miami is just playing above their capability.

I didn't see anything different from the Celtic defense.



Almost every Miami 3 was open...no that's not how they play defense..not good defense.

I legit don't think Tatum got scored on. Maybe on a closeout if he did.

Our offense was maybe a C+. Our D was a D-.

It was the same in Game 1.

The difference is Miami was not making them in Game 1.

Nice rush by 7 to get us back the lead.
JT was awesome in Q1 & then started playing stupid.

Turn up the D.
Get zinger back in rhythm.
**** these try hards!

That and the Cs still have the lead?

Miami is really terrible, if that's the case.

KP and Jrue gotta play better on O. Whole team needs to lock in on D this half. Let's go!! Give Heat zero life. We can't lose game 2.

Once the Heat cool down, the Cs will once again have a double digit lead.

I reckon if we outscore them in the 2nd half we might win this game….

You predicted Cs in 5 games.

Cs will eventually have to lose one.

Why not this game?

I'm wishing for a close game so that the Cs can practice late game execution.

But I don't think I'm going to get my wish.

Need DWhite to have a bigger impact than what he’s shown. Just 3 attempts with 0 rebounds and iffy defense against Herro isn’t going to cut it. Needs to step up as well as KP and Jrue. Not sure why Jrue has 7 attempts when he isn’t much of an offensive threat aside from shooting open threes cutting for layups.
