My cable glitched. I’m 30 seconds behind.

I believed at the start of the year the Celtics needed to ditch Smart

He’s overpaid, and they need a guy who is a quality offensive player with that money

Watching him blow up here is fun though

Man a Heat/Nugs final would be so cool. Love both those teams so would be great to watch two fun teams go at it.

Last year it seemed to me that smart was growing out of the nonsense and just emerging as a nice heady player who dramatizes just like the rest of them. But that was nonsense

Think Brown is playing hurt. He fell on his hand in Game One.

Heat getting sloppy here

Boston maybe finding something doubling Jimmy? Their effort was pretty ugly for a while tho.

It’s probably bad it took 2 and 2/5ths of a game to figure that out

Like, if a guy is Swiss cheesing you, isn’t “double him” at least the first idea

Yeah Mazzulla doesn’t seem like the guy to me. Feels like they’ve had issues like this all playoffs.

Double has to come before Jimmy is standing in the lane (Smart just threw a blow at Martin, should be a tech and ejection)

Think Spo’s adjustment to the double is getting Jimmy the ball at the elbow and yeah think you have to be ready to come w the double as soon as you see that’s what’s coming.

Marcus Smart lives to flop again

So Smart gets a pass because his punch missed?

Tbis is just silly season from the refs

They had them last year too. Butler hits a three last year and we’re talking about an epic collapse.
