Chauncey Billups Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 99, Boston Celtics 121
Just endlessly and what what what specifically are you kind of taking away to to show guys tomorrow kind of a deal when you see a team that just executes and executes and executes first quarter fourth quarter um you know uh one you you you realize how good of a team you played
Against two it makes me uh it really makes me uh the fact that they have so much chemistry you know um that they don’t have to run many things you know they built their team very nicely with all the shooting so they can play one-on-one and they just they they they create the
Chase all game Drive kick swing all game and the guy chances are 80% of the time the guys that you’re kicking it to are knockdown Shooters put you just put you in a tough spot but one thing I love about their team is they don’t get bored playing the
Right way they just play the same same way the whole time and at some point the defense is going to break down and all you got to do is make the proper play kicking into a shooter um so they’re I mean they’re just they’re the best team
In the league for a reason but even on the other side of the ball I thought their physicality um took us out of some stuff early in the game and we tried to prepare for it we said they’re the best first quarter team in the league um
Don’t let him get off to be too comfortable early and they did you know and they did so it’s really good team you know it wasn’t our best it wasn’t our best night but um it wasn’t all us you got to get them credit it was it was
Them how do you think scoop did going against other team starters um I think he was just okay today you know just okay today um but again you know this is this is his first time playing against a team like that you know um and truthfully like Payton
Is is a really good player but he’s not their starter you know you know that’s that was kind of scoots matchup but he played like one today you know we knew that Payton would be very aggressive and at home and he’s just a Hooper anyway
You know he always kind of plays well no matter if it’s against the treble lasers or anybody he’s a Hooper where do you think you’re at as far as you know that that relationship you’re talking about the Celtics they just kind of they they can read each
Other they can execute just kind of running the same basic sets where do you think you are on the other side of that but offensively and defensively a long ways away from that I mean for one you got to start having you got to have guys
Play you got to have your team you know to be able to get the camaraderie um and don’t get me wrong I mean their best two players have been playing together for some years and they’ve been through a lot of incredible playoff series and dog fights and so
They’ve been there you know and then you got the experience of Al Horford two of their best players didn’t even play tonight you know and Drew and so yeah we’re we’re nowhere near uh that and that’s by way of just time you know um and availability so you know we we do pretty
Good and I think we’ve done really good at what we’ve been faced with as far as that that that concerns but yeah yeah we’re we’re that’s Championship level right there

Easyily solved . Bench Scoot Henderson and bring back Banton . Simons and Ayton need help scoring and also a boost in team moral with Banton starting
As long as you think jerami grant is one of the guys to build your team around you will be terrible.
Blazer guards got mauled on defense. It didn't help the scorers had off shooting nights. Ayton played fantastic. Maybe Cronin can trade Deandre for some rookies? Coach Billups can't take heat if his team gets worse.
Hang in there, Chaunce! Lotta great moments of good basketball played tonight and we fought hard. The longer our guys play and learn together, the more difficulty we will dish out to opposing teams like this. I trust the process and the cycle. โฅ๏ธ
