Boston Celtics at Brooklyn Nets Round 1 Game 1 5/22/21

Smart has almost twice as many shot attempts as Fournier. That can’t happen.

Brad riding the hot hand. Complaints about hot hand shooting too much. Welcome to the forums where we *can* have it both ways :]

with this lineup he’s the next best guy to score with Tatum being hounded. He started bad with his shot selection but at least he improved over the course of the quarter.

Also I doubt that brad is pulling everyone’s strings like some overlord playing NBA 2K on the sideline...the ball tends to find its way to people who create space for themselves.

3-8 3pt shooting “hot hand”

Hey, you bring in stats, I bring in stats.

Your boy's 28% from the field, mine's 46%.

Your turn.

Lucky to be in the game. Still can win. Kemba's got to score.

Our bench has outscored theirs by 12.

Smart's never the Hot hand even when he is. 

[blink]

We weathered the storm okay.  We're in it.  Will need to manufacture some better offense to steal this one though.

It would be nice if Timelord could play a lot in the 4th.  He is impacting the game so much right now.

We need some off from EF and Kemba.

[BringToughnessBack]

Somehow only down 6. Tatum will have to step up big time here

Absolutely. We need a Piercesque vs Nets 4th on fire performance by the Big T.

I'm kind of wondering if the people who are griping about Smart this game are actually watching the game? He may be our best player in this game thus far.

I know he’s made some of them, but you don’t cringe when he takes an early shot clock 3? Or drives crazily into the lane and throws some garbage up?

This.

We're lucky to only be down 5 after a long stretch of going cold in the 3rd quarter.

This is still a ballgame.

We need to figure out some offensive sets.

I liked the Tatum Williams pick n roll set earlier in the game.  Let's go back to that!

Fournier is 2-3 from 3.

Doris has been relentless with her love fest with BKN.

...and wait until she gets going with the Knicks.  Will be intolerable.

[LilRip]

The defense hasn’t been bad tbh. Sure a few miscues but the Nets are just unguardable at times. They make tough shots, draw questionable fouls, and just pour on a lot of points.

[Indocelts]

 Smart shooting watch: 6-13 FGA, 3-8 3PA.

Started Q3 with a 0-4 but made the next 3 shots.

Let's see if we could win this game.

[SCeltic34]

Need Kemba to step up.

Timelord!
