01:13It's it to Wong

01:52Baisley at the free throw line the spin
02:00Finds connect on the curl for three
02:03No good. Baisley with the rebound. Baisley goes right back up with the flush and he'll get the foul
02:08A pass defensively, which is exactly what you want to see
02:15R.J. Davis on the pull-up
02:17Gets that one to drop. That's a layup for R.J. Davis. What did you like the most about your start?
02:23Now we're playing with pace, but we need to improve our defense because they scoring too much on us
02:28Baisley has been extremely active. What's the key defensively against the Lakers?
02:32We need to keep defending as we defend the whole tournament, so we're gonna have success. Thanks for your time
02:36Five seconds on the shot clock. He fires
02:39No good
02:41Bridges comes up with it gets it back to Walsh one more to the corner Brown lines it up knocks it down. I
02:50Didn't have that problem twelve and a half. It's not not so bad
02:54Turnover here intercepted by bridges

03:15They swing it to Gonzalez in the corner Gonzalez nothing but net. Giannis
03:20You know just gushed about how important it was to win for some of those younger guys. You're right. How do you guys view the cup moving forward?
03:28So here's James up top for Coloco, but he couldn't handle it
03:33Ronnie James put that in the perfect spot
03:36Lofton goes up Norris
03:45Norris lets it rip gets it to fall extended minutes now playing alongside Jordan Walsh
03:51Walsh a 16-0 run for the Celtics and Stewart ends that
03:57Unable to knock them down but
04:00And another turnover back-to-back turnovers here some sloppy play
04:05Stewart lines one up knocks it down
04:09Rolls off rebound Shireman
04:11Jordan Walsh on the run
04:15Left hand uses his body
04:18Himself from the shop blocker at Coloco to be able to get that shot up on the glass
04:22Swider on the move
04:24The one-legged shot. Yeah, we go with the runner one down, but I love it at least for the G League team. Yes
04:31Stewart
04:32Working hard there
04:33Throws it up and gets it to fall nice job
04:36I do it once again had to move on a wheelchair you feel for that young man for sure
04:40You really do it of course playing so well this game says Bonnie
04:45Distributes once again drops it off for his fourth assist to Coloco into the room coming out to start the second half
04:50Well, she talked about their similarities as well. Yeah from a game perspective to Bronny
04:55takes the
04:57And know where their teammates are so Bonnie threw that to the corner
05:01That turnovers to be on connect for not being in the right spot
05:05Nice play there by Stewart and how would that official score? No, I would not know that of course unless they're familiar with the game of basketball

05:18Gonzalez on the drive to the corner Shireman for three Shireman gets that one to drop
05:25Isaiah Wong saves it in the backcourt
05:28Celtics back on the move
05:30To the corner Lofton one more to Wong steps into a three Wong parries that one
05:35Then with the wrist flicks it is some type of shot
05:38Okay, okay. Walsh going the other direction
05:40Walsh with the hammer
05:43Anticipating Jemisin cutting to the rim, but he couldn't get out of that screen fast enough
05:47Another turnover run Lofton for three Lofton
05:51He's got that one. He's got Walsh on the move
05:53Dumps it into Lofton
05:57Lofton finishes with the two-hand jam and the Celtics have done a great job recognizing the mismatch
06:03Anytime they see Kiff Lofton jr. It has a mismatch for the interior
06:07We've done a great job of getting in the basketball
06:09James with a nifty move and a finish there
06:14As well
06:15Bronny James James gets the screen from Jemisin
06:20The switch on to Lofton six seconds on the shot clock James penetrates

06:39Finds it
06:40Norris trailing for the dunk
06:42Welcome back to Las Vegas
06:44We are pleased to be joined courtside by DJ Stewart and DJ currently down ten
06:48What's the key to close that gap in the fourth quarter?
06:50Oh, we got to get stops
06:51It's been a very ugly game
06:53But if we can get stops and then get out and run and get some easy ones, we'll be fine
06:56What did you like about your teammate Bronny's physical style of play there in the third?
06:59Yeah, like I said, it's an ugly game the rest
07:02They're not calling some calls, but he's doing very well
07:05Handling physicality and they just continue to play through it. Thanks CJ. Rebound Shulga
07:13Amari Williams on the run Amari Williams with the finish. That was a very slow developing fast break. Yeah
07:20the loco
07:23It's the handoff to connect connect going downhill left hand is good
07:29Oh
07:35Lofton lines one up
07:36knocks it down
07:38Lofton jr. is an NBA player simply about finding the right fit
07:43For his skill set, but he is a guy that can be productive in this league largest lead for the Celtics wider tries to answer
07:49He does
07:51Oh
07:53The easy one after a made field goal
07:57And it gets to the ground
08:00Jordan Walsh never crossed half-court so the easy cherry-pick
08:05Windmill for Walsh
08:07James from the corner
08:09Knicks was an assistant coach room on that championship team in 2020
08:13Mm-hmm and now j kids got Frank Vogel who was the head coach of that team for the Lakers
08:17Nice
08:21With a nice fake to throw Lofton off ballast, but Kenny Lofton continues to be a facilitator
08:27And the Celtics are not slowing down that one Walsh has 17
08:32Gonzalez on the drive
08:34By Coloco that was about as easy as it can get for Coloco his fifth block of the game
08:46Lofton with a nice move and finish around slider
08:50Joe is an incredible coach and certainly a fun character for sure a local misses there James with the board
08:58And he puts it back
09:00And that'll do it the Boston Celtics Victoria
