The Celtics offense is so much better when they attack the basket and don't jack up wasted 3s
Lets keep this focus and momentum for the whole of the 3rd and 4th Q 
Great to see the positive impact of Gordon Hayward

Hayward's offball work is art

tp for noticing. most don’t and it makes the c’s so much more efficient.
Heavy minutes for Gordo is a bit surprising but I'll certainly take it.

It's a do or die game, so more minutes for Hayward sounds reasonable.

Spoelstra and the Heat will make adjustments. They will know we’re taking adebayo out of the game with our small ball lineup and with Theis on the perimeter to drag adebayo away from the rim. Also they’re stopping dragic dribble penetration and attacking Robinson who has 3 fouls. Expect spoelstra to address those at halftime so we need to be ready

I hate all those no calls for Jaylen when he gets hit in the air. The NBA needs to protect these young stars!!!!

Jaylen has been the Celtics best player in the playoffs. Hopefully his teammates are coming around to understanding this.

He’s always moving, cutting and relocating. NBCSports Boston came up with a stat after the regular season that Gordon ran the most of any Celtics player on average per game

Herro the only thing keeping them in this. Our defence of Dragic has been excellent

Well so far it's here we go again.  Need to see if C's are in fact capable of stepping on the gas v. this team.  Right now it still feels like no lead is secure.

Hayward looks better that I'd expected.  Tatum on the way to triple-double.  Team shooting can't lapse.

Had we won the coin toss, would it be safe to say that Danny would have gone for Herro, or would he still stick with Langford?

Jaylen will be underrated all his career I predict!

and if Smart can’t stop him, nobody can....I hope he is not ready to sustain that type of shooting...

This. Man this offense is soooo much better when we are aggressively attacking the basket in the right situations. We made some tough floaters in that first half so I anticipate tougher sledding in the second half, but hopefully we pull this out here.
