TheWatShot Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 I'm still trying to figure out how what should have been an offensive foul on Tatum ends up being a jump ball. That was just hilariously awful officiating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was just hilariously awful officiating. I don't know, it was a bad call. I'll take it though, because Butler got away with an equally as bad pushoff earlier in the game that Miami scored on. Tatum has to watch that though, he does that 3-4 times a game and gets called for it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough loss and not looking good for my C’s. - Kemba is a massive liability defensively. - Way too many 3’s, when they won last game by passing up 3’s and attacking the basket. - Over 20 turnovers was the difference. - While he bounced back in a big way in the second half, you can’t have your best player go 0’fer in the first half. - Tyler Herro is going to be a star in the NBA. Ugh, and that’s who Ainge wanted at #14 and Miami took him at #13. Pregame showed Stevens talking to the team. Paraphrasing what he said, they need to attack the basket. They're at their best when they attack the basket. Don't stop attacking the basket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to adjust some of the review rules for next year, but overall I think the coaches challenge has been a good thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's going to be a much better NBA player than Chapman was. Seriously, watching him last night the player that most came to mind was Steph Curry. Not saying he's going to be an MVP, but Herro has a chance to be a year in and year out All-Star at some point soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoB2011 Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Nuggets are in a tough spot with a minute left, but man have the Lakers gotten an incredibly favorable whistle. The foul on Davis shooting a jumper was terrible. The next play Murray should have had a three point play. A couple missed fouls on LeBron on Murray drives.

KoB2011 Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Celtics have to be frustrated with how their challenge turned out. Kemba apparently fouls Butler with his chin. They let the foul stand, inexplicably, but said the shot doesn't count. And somehow Boston lost the challenge even though they took point off of the board.

Honestly, I was stunned at the initial call on Kemba, then when Brad challenged I was like “ok, no chance this doesn’t get overturned.” It was so blatantly a foul on Butler, like not even close. Seriously, how can 3refs review that and get it so glaringly wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 I know I complained a lot about the refs in the Toronto series, but I haven’t at all this series. Tonight? These refs suck. While Boston has taken a lot of 3’s, Tatum and Brown have also attacked a lot and they’re getting zero calls, and they are getting fouled. Yet on the other end Miami is getting everything. Tatum should have 6 more free throw attempts than he does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Crowder gets a similar call immediately on the other end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope we get an even whistle in the second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 After almost two series of getting out coached Stevens finally makes some defensive changes and it has a huge impact. Celtics started pressuring the ball up top and stopped switching screens, making it more difficult for Miami to seek out mismatches of the switches. They started forcing turnovers and bad decisions by Miami which resulted in 3-4 fast break, easy buckets, and now they finally have some offensive rhythm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Agree. This will tighten up. Frustrating that after a great 3rd quarter attacking the basket and getting to the line, the Celtics comes out Andy jack up two bad, quick 3’s to start the 4th.

Someone would just say they made “adjustments” 😁 - great explanation, and that’s how a series can change. Now we’ll see what Spoel does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
