00:00You
00:05Downtown Detroit and Little Caesars Arena with a showdown between the top two teams in the East
00:11It is the Boston Celtics in town to take on the Detroit Pistons
00:17He's done a pretty good job of guarding the three against Boston
00:20We know the Celtics want to get them up the three games Boston shooting 35% from three
00:24But the one win for the Celtics they made 20 threes look for that tonight
00:29The three-point line so key
00:31Mia Shikata and Jalen Dern with the tip and the Celtics control the opening tip
00:36Much better production from three-point range as of late for him Brown passes one off Santa Houser
00:43Pump fake and a deep corner three
00:46They scored 52 points in the second quarter in that win a couple of nights ago both these team blowout wins
00:53two nights ago Tobias Harris on the run from Thompson
00:57Defense creating offense for the Pistons and they'll look to run a little bit tonight Brown wheels deals uses his body off the glass and in
01:06Yeah, one of the best in the league at getting downhill and playing off two feet just like that
01:10Long range good beyond the arc
01:15To 33% beyond the arc is Harris this year
01:19Little wheel out front on top lob dunk Pritchard Decatur
01:23Yeah, they love that play with Peyton Pritchard getting to the paint and can't get him behind the defense
01:28It's uncomfortable if you're that tag guy and you're guarding somebody shooting 40% from three
01:33Duren going to work got to believe he's going to be the other all-star from the Pistons off the glass and in this time
01:39He's come such a long way even in the short time that he spent here in Detroit
01:43Been able to put it on the floor. He could take one or two dribbles and make it happen
01:46Pritchard from distance right wrist contusion not quite a hundred percent, but he's getting close
01:53Ground the fade away in the lane up in good. That's Jalen Brown's bread and butter going left through that drift shot unguardable
01:59Watch the way Boston guards down here a start Thompson. They're gonna back off him right there
02:04You could see he could have to put pressure on that rim. He can drive that thing. They developed their big
02:12Cunningham had it blocked white as good as anybody especially at the guard spot
02:16And they can right back though. Hey the house around him little spin in the lane fade. No
02:22During the offensive rebound. That's what they do
02:25During third in the NBA with four offensive rebounds a game back-to-back good defensive efforts this time off the ball during getting vertical
02:33Oh
02:34At the other end Jalen nerds
02:36Brown came coming in one connection. What a sequence right there Terry Celtics have gone cold. They've missed the last five
02:44six
02:46Dribble kick swing it back Pritchard eventually
02:51Got it
02:52We talked about Detroit with their offensive rebounding presence, but early in this game. It's just Boston with it
02:58Love again this time Durham will go to the free throw line a chance for three
03:05Round turns the corner on Holland
03:07By the control left hand that was so tough talk about that 57% at the rim
03:13Holland's right back at you the foul in the bucket and one
03:20Help from the screen from Kata buys it Brown. It's got another one. I guess three is better than two. That's another monster screen from Kata
03:30Holland trying to stay with ground
03:32Got away with a push step back bucket, but the ref didn't call the handshake so they're not gonna call the push-off Jalen Brown putting on a show concern looking ahead to the playoffs
03:42That's it
03:43There's no doubt that Boston has loaded up and dared them to take threes in their matchups and it's gonna continue on now
03:50They've shot a pretty good on the season, but it's gonna have to continue to play coach early on Jalen Brown is
03:55Taking a ton of shots you guys like the balance of your offense. I think for the most part
03:59He's done a good job of getting to his spots. He's been physical and they're fouling him. So it's been pretty good
04:04Defensively, I mean they're getting you on the glass and they're getting you in transition
04:07What's the first way to stop those two things from happening?
04:10I mean, I think we did a pretty good job for the most part the beginning
04:13We had a couple where we just fumbled and they ended up with it
04:15But we just got to do a better job of blocking them out
04:17They do a good job of crashing. So that's just part of the challenge of the game tonight. I appreciate the time
04:21Anthony Simons who's been so good off the bench just instant offense trying to do that here pull off at the elbow good
04:30That's exactly what Joe Mazzuva drew up
04:34Simon's who averages 14 a game off the bench had to take it away quick hands
04:39Harris will a bird on the one
04:43Quick swing Hauser
04:45Nope
04:47Simon's tapped up and what a rebound put back
04:51The first turned it over at this and got it right back jayden ivy
05:00Something's called their staff
05:09Sixty-year man out of Michigan State
05:14Harris the jumper mid-range baseline
05:17He's been doing that a long long time
05:19Three of eight so far shooting hasn't been great, but mostly it's because of the defense
05:26Green the quarter three got it
05:29It's our Thompson picked up his first on that last possession around the screen back to pritcher headed block
05:35Thompson head of the pack
05:40With white on I'm trying to back him in down on the block
05:43He's just the wall in the lane
05:45He's shooting 58 percent on shots from within the post he's been so comfortable there
05:56Trying to change it here just a little further created that
06:01Thompson had it to one hand tried to throw it down could
06:04Quick kick Hauser three yeah, we've seen that before a few times
06:11White left it down low
06:13Cunningham cracking down and taking that one away
06:19Robinson
06:23This match inside during right away took advantage
06:27Trying to get Kate going here around brown quick swing
06:37Harris that big step inside to create
06:42Jalen there's that match up at the other end got it somehow up off the glass and in
06:47I said it before he's one of the best in the league playing off two feet jump stopping in that restricted area
06:53Oh, what a cut
06:55Gracely coming hands the times in a star Thompson seen that dribble coming at him on the line
07:01Robinson fell right down
07:03Flying at the other right now chasing it down
07:07Scramble Kate that was like a DB making a plan a ball here. What a pass
07:14Robinson the three largest lead on that
07:19You know what it's like and I know what it's like scout when you when you're being targeted out there
07:23It's a lonely
07:26Step back little fade away
07:28Get to the body and just use your size Tobias Harris has been making a living off that shot for his entire career
07:36Saturday
07:37Cunningham flying at him. It's really effective early on that good early shooting for the Celtics
07:45To the left hand like to work out nasty with the head schedule
07:49Remember the three matchups so far this season all close games inside of seven points
07:54How's there to open up?
07:56That's a great way to respond coming off the move like that now. You got Jalen Brown with Duncan Robinson to the post
08:02Swing it
08:03Richard got it
08:05Robby, what would you do even one-on-one? He's not ruled out for the season and get closer and closer?
08:14Long distance story
08:16How's your hello?
08:18With Sam Houser they want to run him off the line that they didn't feel like that last closeout was nearly good enough
08:23Three for three start for the Celtics with three point range the answer at the other end another turnaround baseline
08:30And they lose their challenge which could be valuable in this game. Yep
08:34How's your let's fly by nice move this time inside for hauser
08:41Tipped up kept it alive to cater out to Pritchard
08:47Fade away in the lane Peyton Pritchard sixth man of the year last season now in the starting lineup this year for the Celtics throughout
08:54Robinson
08:56Robinson
08:59Anticipation from the club
09:02White looking to operate. It's only got two points in the game
09:05Make it for you said it earlier Robbie how Detroit sits on Derek White's right hand
09:14Jalen's going to work
09:16Austin
09:18Pistons on the run
09:20Robinson
09:21The easy boost
09:22There's none on the other end in terms of points off the turnovers here's another switch don't have to stay down
09:28It's got it over during
09:31He goes to the bench with four
09:34And Detroit goes double big lineup
09:37Robinson another three top of the key
09:39Well screen for the screen are always a lethal action
09:43Simon looking to heat up at this end
09:45Hesitate loads and fades away with a bucket that only takes one
09:54Kate on the run
10:01Robbie I had a perfect angle of Kate's eyes. He saw that place unfold from half-court
10:06But how about how hard that passes
10:09Jalen Brown the answer. This is a high-level game here. I think around the way they're guarding in the effort. They're giving out there
10:16It is awesome to watch
10:18Stewart
10:19Oh
10:21And the slow
10:22Dern with 18 in the game
10:25Shatterman right by Ivy Garza
10:29Yep, that's a three look at Garza
10:32We talked to Joe Mazzu and he said he was going to test out the Detroit Piscuits pick and pop defense
10:37That's a big time defensive player right there
10:57Richards back and forth. How about a little change of direction and speed and who he scored it on
11:07Paris
11:09Just muscles his way
11:15Robbie you better have been nice to my former teammate at point out at NC State Sidney Lowe
11:20You know, he never you I played for Sydney in Minnesota. So, you know, he never used to make me run too much
11:26That was the third on the bird
11:28Simon rises on that corner three
11:31Offensive rebound wall shopping in and that's great hustle by Garza keeping that ball alive
11:36The guy was in the pick and pop situation
11:38And on that shot crashed from the top
11:41He's one of the better offensive rebounders by percentage in the league
11:45Jay Neiby with three
11:47That's a massive shot
11:48They are building a wall off Ron Hound look at where Derek White is
11:53I mean, they're just daring him to do something
11:55Kick it out, swing it
11:57I think
11:58Got it through
11:59He shot 40% from three last year before he broke his leg so he's shown that he can do it
12:04But he wouldn't give up on it
12:10Don't forget one-on-one for the top
12:14Ground right back at you
12:16What a shot man convert in the air
12:18Roll and good
12:24Walsh trying to stick with him not this time left hand body control
12:28Cutting game
12:29Mohera's matched up with brown here
12:33Jalen in the pain
12:35Good help
12:36Robins you came over got a piece Garza let it go
12:43Right up in robinson's face
12:49You're under so much pressure that way individually too
12:51Aren't you you know they're gonna try to take advantage
12:55That could have been a goaltend
13:00Shots locked down to five
13:03Quick step
13:06Wow
13:07Brown's got three fouls
13:08They kind of did that in indiana scout where they kept him around the basket and didn't have him come out
13:23How's your max got defensively on during it's gonna be cutting him with the throat
13:32Thompson kata picked him up
13:35Over the top cutting him to the corner
13:38Harris just
13:44Harris trying to stay with brown now they don't switch he stays with him makes it tough brown scores anyway
13:51Derek white
13:54Brown with the spin right past harris floats in the lane bucket again jaylen brown's conditioning is unbelievable
14:03Harris matched up with brown down along the baseline there he goes jaylen
14:08Operating
14:09Fading away for the wind
14:11The bounce
14:12No
14:13Detroit survived
14:16It's a heck of a game it's a playoff atmosphere it's playoff physicality how did you guys get this one done
14:22We wanted this game obviously two of the best teams in the east
14:25Our group is always up for the challenge every single night we play
14:30To be able to come out here grip this one out full team effort everybody just buying in but really
14:36That's our identity of our group is just pushing it every single time we hit this floor
14:40It's a heck of a win for us
14:41You get the assignment of jaylen brown a lot in that fourth
14:44How exhausting is it taking him on for a quarter?
14:47It's tough i mean he's a super talented player playing at all-time level right now
14:51But you know
14:53I trust our group i trust our schemes and at the end of the day
14:56I know he's gonna hit tough shots but it's just about making those looks hard for
14:58You know maybe something that goes under the radar jayden ivy's had a tough year physically
15:02But he makes some big threes in the fourth what did that give you guys?
15:06Uh that added boost out there was huge for us
15:09You know obviously he's coming back from injury but he puts the work in every single day and all of us on our team
15:15One thing about our group is we support each other and uh you know
15:18We we want we wanted all those looks to go in and he was able to come up huge for us today
15:23Tobias thanks congrats on the win no problem thank you appreciate it
