Celtics shoot 29 percent from 3, blow 30-point lead in loss vs. Hawks | NBA | UNDISPUTED

About a four okay about a four because I mean skip they was up 30 they was trying to win by 60 they went one for 18 they was trying to blow them out why would I be concerned about a team that’s won 20 out of 23 games like what’s the be

What’s to be concerned about yeah if anything this is a wakeup call this is like all right you got look we got so many games left we got slapped in the face it’s a tough pill to swallow let’s get let’s get our mind back right let’s stop let’s understand a process let’s

Not get bored with the process there’s a process to winning a championship and you got to get through the regular season they look bored they smacking teams left and right skip they all they’re make they’re they’re on Pace to making his make history uh to be one of

The teams that’s with the margin of Victory now is probably about 11 12 I mean they’re bored but to me my message is to them don’t get bored with the process finish out the season strong going into the playoffs but my level of concern is minimum uh with that they

Would bored when they lost to the Lakers though that was a while ago that wasn’t boring them they lost to the Lakers without LeBron you talking about two months ago yeah but that wasn’t Bor them I’m just saying you say they bored but but think about it they lost without ad

And they lost without LeBron right so now they lose to a team again without Trey young and at the same time span they get popped by the nuggets and the cash no but this what I’ll tell you this was they this is there’s their tendency last year they played to the level of

Their opponent this year year it’s crept in a couple times that’s it but for the most part they’ve done what they’re supposed to do but they they’ve shown some tendency to play to the level when you don’t have a LeBron or ad0 out there like you’re not up for the game with no

Trey young out there you and I know you supposed to be like yeah we should take care of business but sometime that Creeps in and but how you but how you explain that though and then how you explain losing to the clippers for instance losing the nuggets the Bucks

The Pacers the Thunder Warriors magic or uh the horn at 7 six the timber wolves all those type of teams how you explain losing to them we won 20 out of 23 games key what you you concerned to I’m just if you win you was you just coming off a

19 a nine game winning streak and before that you know what they coming off a 10 game winning streak so so what level can yeah the only team that’s beat them this year they beaten everybody this year except Denver Nuggets so you don’t you you have no

Concerns at all get into the playoff as a matter of fact I’m happy they lost this game okay I’m happy they lost this game cuz now I don’t think they happy because it look bad yeah they should feel bad and they gonna be like all right that’s a wakeup call Cuz if you

Rolling you you feeling yourself you you might get vulnerable and just take it easy on somebody and get hit look you know what they lost to Atlanta it’s time to recharge the batteries and get ready for the playoffs okay that’s all I look at it so this might have been a good

Loss all right so Paul I’m going to say what I said from early this season I’ve said it to you I’ve said it a hundred times to key I just don’t love basketball teams that live and die by the three-point shot and they are all about the three

Because they by far lead this league in taking threes obviously they lead in making threes because they take so many threes but we love Golden State okay but but Golden State got nine championships or something yeah think about it Paul all right we’ve been talking about we’ve

Been talking about Tatum and in the Celtics for the last years showed you you can win by living and dying by the three did they not when nobody you you’ve made the case to me in a seven game series maybe they have a couple off nights but the other five or four or

Whatever it takes they’re going to make a bunch of them because they’ll take 50 and make 25 and if you can do that you’re going to win the championship right last night they didn’t win the championship because they took 38 which is under their average and they made only 11 so so it’s

28.9% it’s just not good enough and then you still were right there in the fourth quarter and you go one of six from three and wait a second they go five of seven so you lost by four time three is 12 so you lost at the three-point line by 12

Points in the fourth quarter you’re probably going to lose on Ro for 18 they had a stretch of one for 18 that’s not going to happen again all right we said but but see you said it’s not going to happen again and probably can help me

Out cuz it it was it’s been a minute but also we also o said this about them about a month ago they they they same sort of thing happened we that’s not going to happen tat he will be fine yeah and here we are again having the same

Conversation no we talking about the team though look they haven’t even played with the same starting lineup in this nine game win streak who who other team can do that they’ve had they haven’t had their starting lineup in a nine game win streak that is true and

You know who’s missing and it’s a glaring loss it’s your new guy it’s Drew Holliday yeah he’ll be back and to me he is the backbone of your team because he’s the one guy I trust in the biggest moments in the biggest games and it’s not to make threes it’s to make

Defensive plays it’s to make the right pass it’s to make the shot maybe it’s a two-point shot but he is the ultimate winner to me because it just look everywhere he’s been good stuff has happened so it was a great pickup by you guys and I thought it was going to it

Will ultimately be a loss for Milwaukee not to have him and to replace him with Dame because they have lost their defensive identity in Milwaukee now they’re all offense and maybe maybe all offense will work for them but look tell us who started that game The Immortal

Sam Hower started the game and the immortal Sam Hower went two of 10 from three okay the back court who was the back court all who was our back court your two kids who are no longer kids because we keep saying they’re kids your two star kids they both played right

Yeah they played but our back we are we know who the glue guys are we know who the two guys are Derek white and Drew holiday are they not okay so you didn’t really mean you didn’t really have a back court last night you kind of just

Started Sam Hower you you didn’t really have a point guard you had to let the star kids do it the Gold Dust Twins and I I don’t know they they both play concern be hide end why would it be hide end no Derek white no Drew holiday and

We know them is them is that’s probably the best defensive back court the steadiest back court probably the highest IQ back court in the league I’ll give you that I mean come on they wouldn’t allow they wouldn’t not had have allowed that to happen mown are

They the guts of your team that’s the guts that’s that definitely 100% those two are the glute you can’t tell me Drew holiday Championship experience Derek white we know what he brings that’s the glue as long as they out there I’m confident they going to win okay can you overcome a game where

Jason Tatum has a two for 10 from because he is capable of doing that yeah he’s capable of doing that but if I got these guys out there setting them up I didn’t have drew out there Drew holiday out there setting them up I didn’t have

Derek white out there so now he’s taking those threes a little more contested because I’mma help off of this guy over here I’mma help off of him when he’s driving the ball you see how Atlanta packed the paint when we don’t have our back court shooting back court out there

So it’s a little easier to kind of defend the drives and and now they’re taking a little more contested threes there so so you know that was a test yeah they should have won they was up 30 there really is no excuse for that they should have won I mean as good as

They’ve been up 30 there no no excuse for that but hopefully this is a hopefully this is a Learning lesson even if they was getting ones and Atlanta was shoo threes they should this is a Learning lesson though and I’ll take that at this point in the season you can

Take those on the chin it’s like that that bad loss so you so you’re not worried about Milwaukee at all or clev I’m not worried about them at all at all really no not at all what have they shown what have Milwaukee shown throughout the year that’s giving you

Confidence they can be Boston what has what has anybody in the Eastern Conference shown that’ll give you confidence that they can push Boston uh in a series there’s I just I just look at only I’ll tell you this though there’s one team only the Miami Heat the Miami Heat because they’ve risen from

The dead of the playin game to play Boston and eventually get to the finals and that’s the situation they’re in again this year you got an experienced coach in SPO who my eyes is the best coach in the league and and and Jimmy playoff Butler y well you got you know

You say Milwaukee I just look at a healthy Giannis dude that obviously you got Drew holiday who’s won a championship but I got a two championship winners in Middleton and long Janis sitting over there that experience and then I like Dame I don’t care what y’all say about his def Dame

Is just it feels like it’s his time to take this next step come playoff time I love Dame but what do you have f faith in in Middleton he’s been in and out of the lineup this year and you need a guy like that to take the pressure off of

Dame cuz Dame is gonna have to match up with our back court who drew holiday which I remember when Drew was in New Orleans with Rondo did stifled Dame he did stifled I think they swept him yeah they got they they they they they they

They deed him up now he had success in Boston just recently that’s Dame Dame is one of the greatest players ever played a game but I know in that playoff situ I rather have drew holiday and Derek white guard him in a seven game series than

Any other guard in the league all right so Paul I’m going to sum this up back in your day you and kg and Ray and Doc and Rondo I don’t know if you lost a 30-point lead but I’m going to bet you didn’t because you you just weren’t you

Weren’t built that way mentally like somebody’s going to say once it gets down to 10 somebody’s going to say okay that’s enough of that and you have two young superstars and and for my to my eye I’m still not sure who’s better cuz on some nights I think jaylen’s better than

Jason and you can go back and forth on I know Jason’s more talented overall but but I go back and forth about who’s more valuable but one of those two last night needed to step up and say okay that’s enough these are the Hawks they don’t have Trey young they don’t even have

Last night they didn’t have that Jaylen Johnson who had that dunk over Austin Reeves out here remember we talked about it so he didn’t go last night he’s a nice young player so so they’re short-handed too and you let them do that to you because it it’s wrong I I

Don’t think the Larry Bird Celtics would have allowed that they just would have said no somebody would have said no no that’s enough that’s the only problem I have with your team but you didn’t have your guts and glue guys yeah absolutely and maybe they’re the ones yeah

Absolutely I mean I feel that that that’s I can agree with that but I’m sure Sam Cassel says something on the sideline and that’s the reason they brought over there I’m sure coacha said something but you’re right skip it does have to come from the players but

They not on Flor though Paul huh they they’re not on the floor they’re not on the floor but you got somebody in that huddle in the timeout saying things like that it was just one of them days it was a hiccup let’s get this out the way

Before the playoffs let’s get this out the way before the playoffs because I rather happen now than when we get in the playoffs and now we got an example of that so we get to this point in the playoffs when we up 30 they going to talk about this

Here Will and so it makes sense that it happens now than in the playoffs ever up by 30 yeah we won a lot of games by 30 I was dancing in the fourth quarter I remember one you beat the Lakers by yeah yeah we beat the Lakers by 50 that’s right
