It's kind of crazy how bad the stars are shooting in some of these games. Tatum is 5-10 stopped with the outside shots that missed early and is driving and hitting the shots and/or getting fouled. Should actually be several more fouls called for him. I'm talking g about just shooting and all the stars. The Jays, Luka, Kyrie. The amount of shots the 4 of them are missing is wild to me. None of them have shot all that well for the whole series.

They just haven’t played small enough to do it now. Too much to ask Tatum to be that physical inside this deep in the playoffs. If you’re going to play small, then the guards needs to be relentless with their ball pressure. Unfortunately, Jrue and Derrick have been nonexistent since early in the game. More than that, if you’re playing small you can’t have your PG trying an under the basket bucket against their only big.

Big Al shows how it is done - drive it in.

There's no way they are gonna foul Luka out of this one. There have been about 4 that should have been called (not counting push offs)

D. White off to another slow start in the Finals after being so good all year long. Good god did Brown fly to the hoop on the loose ball.
A minute later the poor bastard has his face smashed on the floor then drains a 3.

I know we all hate Tatum taking the side step 3 iso with the clock winding down but I'll take him hitting that as a good sign.

They’ve found the sweet spot with Tatum running things and seeing over the Mavs’ defense. Attack that relentlessly.

Big Al is a +23. Brown, Holiday +21. Tatum +19. The stars are out tonight for Boston.

Absolutely great half by the Jays, btw.
Yeah, the points are there and the shooing numbers are coming around.
But the defesne, the passes, the rebounds, the loose balls, the hustle..... they've been tremendous.

It’s kind of nice that they almost blew the lead in game 3. Reminder that you can’t let your foot off the gas on either end.
