14-2 with less than 15 turnovers.
Now 0-6 with more than 15 turnovers
Really is frustrating. I think once the C's hit like 10 around halftime you could tell things weren't going to end well lol. And they didn't, the turnovers kept GSW in it (kept the deficit less than 7 even in stretches BOS had momentum) and then GSW just went on a run late to end it and win
The weird thing is this team is supposed to be great when it's fast-paced and when they are in transition but this series it feels like Jaylen, Smart or White even in a 3 on 1 or 4 on 2 breakaway will basically pass it towards the area of the one defender who deflects it or grabs it and gets the steal. Infuriating.
Some of those cross-court throws by Tatum in Game 4 were mind boggling. A few of Smart's passes were equally so.
It wasn't technically a turnover, but Smart's throw-up when he decided he was fouled but there was no whistle is inexcusable and is telling of a major problem all playoffs: playing for the foul instead of the score.
Take care of the ball and attack to score.
