LETS KEEP SHOOTING THREES GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

complain about that 3.  just keep complaining. oh know you won't, cause he made it. 

but I will.  he's in love with the 3 tonight when he's bricking them.  needs to drive to the basket

They aren't contested shots, they are open shots. They are just not falling. 

don't care.  if they're not falling, you don't keep chucking them - you drive to the basket or work yourself in closer to get an easier shot you can/will make.

You're giving no credit to the Cavs interior defense. Its not easy for the C's to score driving to the basket because of Thompson, LeBron etc.  They're contesting everything and I would expect the refs to continue to let them.  Celtics need to continue to shoot the 3 and make them to win.

We've been eating them alive inside so far. It's when we kick it back out that we're not making them pay. Those threes have to start falling at some point though.

Hmmm let’s pray they do.

honestly I saw (1) 3 point shot that Jaylen took way early in the shot clock and seemed like a cop out.  Most of his other 3's have been in rhythm, within the offense.  He just hasn't hit them.  That said, if we get the right matchup, Jaylen should be taking it to the rim.  Stack up the fouls on them and get into the bonus.

Referees have to call the fouls..

[GratefulCs]

Referees affect game in so many ways...Brown started aggressively he got hammered but no call..so he starts chucking threes....Refs influence.

Hes hesitating too looking down at the 3pt line before his shot like come on just shoot the [dang] ball hate when guys do that

[blink]

Brown needs to work inside out

Go to the rim.

exactly, lets get a couple easy shots and then open it up with the 3 ball within the rhythm of the offense

How about we just keep wearing them out in the post until they find a way to stop it? No threes.

I approve of that approach haha....Al has been good in the post.  Play inside out.  If / when they double Al, he needs to find the open man.

Cavs have done nothing to win this game

Cs shot selection doing the job

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

Terry and Jaylen probably cannot shoot worse, my concern is they need an 8-10 point lead to ensure Lebron cannot win the game on his own.

correct if not bigger lebron can knock out a ten point lead himself in no time

I don't think the Cavs interior D has been special. Boston just missed a bunch of good looks.

[BringToughnessBack]

Big Al and Tatum will have to carry us tonight, although it'd be nice if Rozier and Brown could contribute more. Need a Scary Terry clinic in the 2nd half.

We definitely need Terry Krueger in the second half!

How about we take good shots, regardless of where they are?

[TheLegendaryClub]

Jeff Green hasn't looked this alive in a game since before we traded for him :/

[Phantom255x]

Brown HAS to start knocking them down, because they tend to double Horford down low and so he makes the pass to a (usually) open Jaylen. He just has to start knocking them down more.

That open man also has to do something (like hit the shot)

[CelticSooner]

Next year this will not happen. Love these young guys but they play stupid at times. If LeBron gets going it’s going to cost them dearly tonight.

brad needs to be screaming bloody murder at them. hey if they cant think for themslves then TELL THEM WHAT TO DO BRAD!

Something he will not do. Can’t remember the last time he’s pulled someone for chucking. Years ago?

being aggressive is the only way you are going to get foul calls in a game 7.

Screw Marc Davis it doesn’t matter, keep taking it inside regardless and force them to make a call eventually. Don’t let bs NBA refs change how you play.
