Or the Celtics are really good at not committing obvious fouls. When they play well, they just don’t commit those reach-in fouls that worse defenses do.
Oh they commit them.

Ok I’ll eat my words dude wasn’t being a drama queen and is just tough as fuck. Crazy he came back in the game on an ankle sprain but also seems really stupid. Then again they’re the doctors
I was just thinking how wild it is ayton avg like 8 points while the warriors are getting like 60 points in the paint with looney dropping 22 on the mavs. Sun’s had zero inside game.
How much do you guys the sun’s, game plan etc for that and how much do you blame ayton? Dude is a very capable and efficient scorer when given opportunities but it feels like he doesn’t get them on this team often. They also seem to have done a bad job developing him. Should have been doing that in the regular season. I think that’s something the warriors learned in 2016 and a lot of teams have realized but sun’s pushed hard for Regular season.
Seems really dumb they didn’t load manage cp3 more in the regular season. Dude played a ton of minutes.
I do think he lacks aggressiveness though
Pretty common to roll an ankle and be able to play through it due to adrenaline or whatever but then it swells up and becomes far more painful

Anywho, Smart being out isn’t great but I’m still cautiously optimistic. They’re the better team by they just need to stop acting disinterested for 12 minutes at a time.
Honestly their main problem is more Tatum is just super inconsistent offensively. I’m surprised he isn’t better at getting to the rim when his shot isn’t falling.
Isn’t that risking a lot more damage?
I just remember it playing through injury for the Celtics making it much worse then not being the same player after, getting cut, and being out of the league. I believe thays what happened
Celtics already look way more active and engaged. Miami won’t miss every shot but the defense is way better right now
I mean yeah but you’re not really thinking about that in the moment
Rob is such a difference maker on defense
Am I wrong in thinking that Tatum is still a season or two away from the start of his peak?
What a fucking series. Basketball is dumb. I’m sure the Heat will go on a 20-0 run at some point

I’ve sprained my ankle and broke it a few times. You can finish the game on it, but once the shoe is off for a considerable time/it’s not wrapped super tight you’re fucked
Only Oladipo is allowed to shoot
Really disappointed the Celtics couldn’t hold the Heat to single digits.
If I told you the Heat were making half their threes and the Celtics are under 30%, you’d assume the score was reversed.
