Al got fouled on that rebound.  Call it.

Exactly!!

[Indocelts]

More poised players (Al n Jrue) walking the talk.

Here we go!

I love the energy so far. Defense has been great and aggressive! Big shot AL!

[BringToughnessBack]

Coast to Coast Baby!!! What defense.

[Redz]

The D is there!

If the O catches up we?re in good shape!

[Surferdad]

9-2 based on great defense but they can play even better on offense.

[mobilija]

Good start! Lead would be even bigger if Tatum and Briwn would pull the trigger on those open 3s?Tenn musta jinxed em

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

browna nd Jt need to drive

can the threes for now

DRIVE THE DAMM BALL!

[Billz401]

The Jays gotta wake up man. Playing hesitant and settling for bad shots. Gotta attack the rim and make the right play.

With that said keep up this defensive intensity and get to and secure these loose balls!

[jambr380]

Great D not so good offense.

Defense is night and day compared to Friday night. We just need Tatum and Brown to settle in. Great start by Jrue so far

[radiohead]

Hopefully that timeout settles the Jays.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

attack luka and cryrie like a pit bull all night

[angryguy77]

We need to be growing this lead during the initial surge.  Dallas will settle in at some point

I like the defensive intensity.  Offense still looks really rough.  Brown is taking very difficult shots.  And I don't know when Tatum became so freaking guardable.  Everything he does is slow as molasses.  Even his open catch-and-shoot threes are closed off because he's taking forever to get into his motion.  I love a lot of what he has done as a playmaker in this playoff run but his shotmaking ability has abandoned him.
