00:00threes they shot 50 threes last night right and hit on 13 13 and i i don't know are we
00:08gonna get
00:08to joe missoula shine during they said it yeah we definitely can't great okay so i don't care
00:14if it's a good look three if you're not hitting them right and and you want to you know and
00:22math
00:23not my strongest suit but you are at it is a mathematical advantage for you to put the ball
00:30on the floor move the ball put it on the floor drive to the hoop and you either are going
00:37to get
00:37a bucket or you're going to get a foul and you might get both lower percentage shot from the
00:42three-point line yes get in the paint get inside the three higher percentage shot there was you
00:47looked at the first game game one there was the time tatum he pump faked on the three-point line
00:52took one or two dribbles pull up free throw jumper knock it down they get into this thing and
00:58derrick white couldn't throw the ball in the ocean to save his life they get into this thing of like
01:04and that's the one area where i know they live and die by it but there's got to be a
01:09point in time
01:10where you have to adjust and say okay it's not like they got this massive rim protector it's not like
01:16you're playing san antonio with victor wimbanyama get the ball into the paint try to get to the free
01:21throw line or take high percentage shots yeah if they're not falling adjust yeah and and go away
01:28from the the three-point game for a little bit like i i and i i don't eddie house last
01:36night after
01:36the game was basically blaming the refs or half blaming the refs no way yes curtis yes yes lose it
01:45it's someone else's fault yes i'll say this like i agree definitely when they shoot under 27 percent
01:53from or under a 28 percent from the three-point line they're like two and nine yeah and i thought
01:59there was a point in the third quarter where i was just begging them like you guys are creating some
02:04live ball turnovers just they started running it down the other end jay both the jays and laying it up
02:10in the paint and it was working for them like you could feel the momentum start to change but then
02:16they went away from that to where at one point they had a turnover and they started walking it up
02:19but
02:20i'm like you can't you can't be walking it up guys when you're when you've been down for two quarters
02:26but
02:26for me the frustration also came on defense yeah because there was none of it they went into the
02:33game clearly from my perspective saying we did the drop coverage in game one we basically dared them
02:38to shoot threes in game one and they couldn't hit the broad side of the barn so we're going to
02:43continue with that which is fine like it started out okay in game two but then you get vj edgecomb
02:49right just going off and then maxi late going off and they never adjusted they just kept daring him to
02:55shoot the threes as if fate would have it that on their side the celtics are going to make the
03:00threes
03:00and for some reason philly's not and and that was the part that was frustrating to me like you gotta
03:06have the feel of okay they're hitting everything like maybe we need to change our defensive approach
03:11too yeah and then you got to add insult to injury you got maxi jawing at your jawing at the
03:18fans
03:19jawing at your bench last night wiggy yeah yep how was it it was good it was a great vibe
03:24the vibe was
03:25good and then once they got to like it seems like in the third quarter it kind of like plays
03:31like that
03:31jalen brown dunk on bone bona was crazy and then like the third quarter that's where they kind of
03:38tend to for some reason take their foot off the gas or they just like let teams back in or
03:44they don't
03:44play great and then you know at that point in time if maxi is jarring at them that's because you
03:53ain't
03:53doing nothing you know they hitting threes you going down you missing threes they hitting threes you
03:58going down you missing three so it's like you know it was one of those frustrating games but the
04:03you start to look at it and i gotta look at what there is because i can't remember if it
04:07was um
04:09uh i can't remember who it was last night but i was talking to you know the twins that do
04:15security
04:15at the celtics game yes yes do you know their names yes i do okay it's jim and jack do
04:23you know which
04:23is which that i still i need more clarity on that i still like need to to figure out wiggy
04:30it's
04:31difficult with twins right i mean i i will i will grant you that i will grant you and i
04:35know at one
04:35point he said let you need to do some research on what they're like uh maybe defensively against the
04:42three-pointers and game twos because for some reason in game twos and i might have been talking to
04:48selly about this too before game two many sources yeah yeah game twos the celtics are just for some
04:57reason game twos their record's not very good so i have to look at that and see i don't know
05:03what it
05:03is i just for some reason they give up these game twos yeah well the coach just really quick nick
05:09nurse
05:10said before the game like we're gonna shoot threes like that's what we got to do so it's not like
05:14he
05:14lay out exactly what their plan was i know i'm an idiot greg and missoula should be coach of the
05:20year if he hasn't already won it you know he doesn't he doesn't want that oh i know he hasn't
05:24even thought of it he has nothing in his house about the championship not even on the wall downstairs
05:30um but what's the difference between him and james coaching the team if they're just going to
05:35chuck up threes no matter what if they're going in or not yeah what's the point of a coach what's
05:39the
05:40point of a coach yeah if you're not going to change doing what you did the whole game even
05:44though it's not working yeah he's one of those people that's the one thing i don't like about him
05:48is like why you know if you ask him that if it's not working from the three-point line and
05:54mego you
05:54probably know better than anybody why not change up your game why not get into the paint and his
05:59thing is like we're still going to shoot threes like why is that because you're in there you know
06:04like what's the reasoning behind that is they just going to live and die on that i would guess that
06:10they feel like the i know analytics is a dirty word but that it that it bears out like if
06:15you
06:15look at this is a at worst a seven game series if you drop one game because you have a
06:22terrible
06:23shooting night then you can live with that if you can still get the four now what's really scary to
06:28me is like i don't i don't want to be it's one game so i don't want to be over
06:32the top but weren't
06:33there moments last night where you were like oh no you need to adjust because this is what we saw
06:38against the knicks last year yes right yeah like you need to have that feel in game the guys too
06:43because even though you see guys wide open on the three like if they don't have it that night
06:50it's just like you ride the hot hand on the other side you have to be aware of that too
06:54it's okay to
06:55be alarmed or concerned or whatever whatever your level is and in the nba they put the stat up last
07:02night when a series is tied 1-1 like this one is now the team that wins game three wins
07:10the series
07:1175 percent of the time so you're saying must win yeah i mean must win unfortunately the must sweep
07:16is not happening oh my god sorry about that coach but um the so yeah maybe a must win for
07:23the celtics
07:23celtics celtics lose game anybody think the celtics are going to lose the series no no no i don't think
07:29i mean so curtis you just feel like they they mailed it in last night or they were going to
07:34go
07:3413 of 50 from three again yeah yeah that's see that's the thing about the celtics like in that
07:39and but that's that i get that's the mindset that they have is kind of what what curtis said
07:45all right next time we're going to shoot above 30 percent and i think we'll be fine it will be
07:48fine
07:49like joe mazula we'll get to joe mazula but he is he will tell you the same exact thing which
07:53is we
07:54had the looks all of those every one of the 53s that we took last night was a good look
08:01so that's
08:02what that's what you'll hear uh up until the game number three i guess
