Nice job keeping the game close even when the shots weren't falling. Need to get Tatum going.

It's OK. The shots will start falling.

Close the paint a bit more, send someone to kill Kyrie the next time he drives.

Do not change the defense, keep forcing Luka to go for 80.

Paging Jayson? We need some shots to fall.

Paging Jayson? We need some shots to fall. Too much movement on that open 3, he needs to calm down and he got this.

Luka is shooting incredibly well but has no legs. Keep on him! Make him run!

Tatum with a LEGENDARY terrible final possession, shoot the f*cking 3!
Terrible call on the White block. Refs kind of screwing us.

Jayson just seems in between on his decisions. He needs to figure this out.

The offense is still sluggish yet they still put up almost 30 that quarter. All this talk about the Mavs defense playing better, but they are getting shredded and shots aren't falling.
Keep the pressure on Luca, it's hard to think his stamina will hold up with the pressure they are putting on him.

They continue to drive past Mavs defenders almost at will, which is a great sign for the series at large. That’s a personnel issue that will be tough to scheme around.

Would be hilarious if Tatum comes out and gets 15 dimes tomorrow Halfway there 1 TO with that, the adjustment has been made. Just needs to make his shots and they’ll sweep

And come on - the Luca play for assist of the game is "something only Luca can do"? Tatum did that same play early, behind the back to the open Holiday for the drive and the Celts are doubling up the Mavs on assists. 19 makes, 15 assists compared to 21 makes, 8 assists.

Jayson just seems in between on his decisions. He needs to figure this out. He’s showing good restraint by taking what they give him (dump-offs and kick-outs on drives to the rim), but has also taken a few bad step back threes while passing on some good catch and shoot opportunities.

whats worse then Tatum shooting poorly? Not shooting a wide open 3 at the end of the half and then not getting a shot off. He needs to take that shot, no matter the shooting problems.
Luka was awesome and Celtics only made 3 3 pointers, Got to think luka cools off a bit and gets tired and some 3s start falling.

A friend asked me who wins tonight and he did not like my answer. As i could not commit. I said the Celts will lose one of game 2 or 3. The pattern this playoffs has been for 2 of 3 series they lost game 2, perhaps feeling a little over confident or whatever the reason may be. I told him later on the calls maybe one way tonight and should the Celts pull it off game 3 will be over the top with bad calls. Bank on that, no matter how much you really don't want to believe it more and more non main stream news has leaks about crooked businesses. So the Celts are so good they've overcome several horrifically called games this season and still managed to win. That said should the Celts pull out tonights game the league will go overboard with bad calls game 3 with bad calls to extend the series. Don't believe me but watch with critical eyes and we will not need extend this conversation because you truthful eyes will not lie. Ultimately here is my take Celts game 1, Dallas game 2, Boston wins games 3 &4 Dallas game 5 and Celtics clinch it game 6. If I'm wrong it will be games 2 and 3 swapped.

The interior passing has been really, really good.

White might be a psychopath to go for that block there lol would have been the greatest defense play I’d ever seen.
