Marcus Smart is a 40% three point shooter. I'm questioning what the coaches are telling our guys on defense.
No, he's not, not even close.

.398 on the season, what are you talking about my bro? The guy can shoot.

Good thing Jaylen Brown isn't playing this **** would be a lot worse. Giving the Celtics any kind of belief and hope is reckless.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

He’s useless even if he’s not hitting the occasional 3.

Doesnt dribble penetrate, and is picked on on defense.

Get Mike James his minutes.

I think we can pull this one out. It's up to the coaching defensively though, we can't give Tatum easy shots.

That's his FG%. His 3pt% is .330. He's shooting about 50% from 3 this series which is by far his best 3pt % for his playoff career.

Kyrie with a very poor game.

Terrible defense. What is Nash doing with his rotation. Shamet is not a must play rotational player.

Coaching staff need to adjust the switch scheme. Can't have Tatum on super favorable matchups every possession when he's locked in. Deny the switch and double/trap.
