Jokic looks gassed. He was rolling his eyes as he walked to the bench.
His conditioning has always seemed like an area of concern for him.

Both Murray and Jokic are eight for 11.  Not sure they can keep that up.

Jokic absolutely can.  Murray, probably not.  Odds are good that he’ll cool off some.

The last three minutes were a complete failure. Got tired and just started chucking threes, and now it's only a six point lead instead of a double digit lead.

Also, another end-quarter situation leading to an awful Tatum iso three. Why not call a timeout there and get a much better look than that? We have six remaining timeouts.

They wouldn't gotten all those rebounds if they were tired.
I think they got tired getting those rebounds. They extended a lot of energy on that possession without getting a basket. Can’t knock them for the effort. Just unfortunate. They didn’t get any points out of it.

okay. up by six on the defending champs. good, not great but good.

they need to play aggressive defense and make jokic work hard. he seemed a bit winded out there. oh yeah, and attack the basket.

celtics looking pretty good.

Should be 7 if not for that lame T.

We need more out of the bench. Joe always tightens up the rotation in these big games.

It also caused a huge deflation when Murray came down the other end and quickly made an easy layup.

Yup, they were clean looks which unfortunately we couldn’t knock down.

Tightly contested game. As expected of two top teams.
