If you want a perfect crystallization of what this game was, I’d say that sequence in the early 3rd Q when we’re down big but still fighting was a great encapsulation of everything. Jaime playing super aggressive and battling. Jovic hitting 3’s. Then all momentum is squandered by Herro getting blocked and an awful turnover as the Celtics go back up 20.
I’m not a Herro hater or a Herro lover. He was ***god awful*** today. Hope the 4th Q garbage time shots get him in a rhythm for Game 2. Delon Wright MVP for his elite shot-making to cut the 30+ deficit to 15.
Celtics weakness is late game. 3rd and especially 4th quarter they tend to lose steam. If the Heat can keep up with them until then there’s a chance.
Martin can’t come into the game and be afraid to handle the ball. What r u doing in the NBA if you’re too afraid to handle the ball
Btw Boston fans in their subreddit are such crybabies lmao

Spo will make the adjustments.
Heat can take game 2 after 3 days of rest

We have our chances.
Let’s go Heat.

Rookies are ready…Bam doing what it takes…would love to see a bit more Duncan to try and match 3s…Delon should get the nod and just sit Caleb…
Herro…got to have it all from you…can’t have another game like that

That game couldn’t have gone better for the Celtics. That being said, they started out +14 before we scored. Game ended up in a 20 point win. Herro needs to play a lot better. Delon Wright needs more playing time. Jovic and Highsmith were brutal.

Yo it’s crazy how much this fan base hates on herro. He was bad today but he’s also put in an almost impossible situation. He’s having to go against two all nba defenders while there is no other shot creator available. Herro is a good complementary scorer, he’s not a number one option. Hope that spo is able to put him in better positions to score

Anyone else think Love should get more minutes in this series?

Still love our team, imagine being a Suns fan, getting KD Booker and Beal and then losing by more than we did

Someone said CS match up well against the Nuggets. No, they don’t. They will just shoot a bunch of threes and hope they win. Nuggets have more length on every starter and have a more balanced offense. They just need an on-ball defender to turn over Brown and they’re good.
Anyways, back to our game. I’m over Herro. He can’t fucking dribble, can’t be the ball handler, but wants all the responsibility. You need to go stand in the corner when Terry gets back. I think if he has one more shit game with low efficiency and a bunch of turnovers that the players on the team are going to doubt him. The play after he turned it over by running into Porzingis, Jaime took that shit and just tried to drive it because if it goes back to Herro that shit is over.
Spo does stuff that I don’t understand. There was a time the Cs had Horford, Z, Tatum, Brown, Jrue on the court and we don’t play Bam and Love. If you think Love is too old or whatever, play Bryant and let Bam take threes.

Heat in 5
They let us get a quarter, don’t let us get a half
Just need one of the first two to have a chance. Forget this one and move on. I didn’t watch but the playoffs each game is its own animal
Not much to say just awful. Hopefully the little run at the end gives them confidence
Thomas Bryant couldn’t be worse than herro spo
Adjust and try to steal game two. Good flashes from Jovic and Jaquez but if we want to have any chance Herro needs to get hot
Good playoff rep. Excited to watch the young guys on Wednesday.
Well that was a game. Playing time for Jaime and Niko is good experience.
Prime example why I didn’t want the heat to play them. Everything I expected . Herro can’t do anything against a real defense.
Bam Jovic Jaime all battled today
Herro needs to show up

Shoutout Delon
Why didnt we play jovic more?
Yes, Jimmy. But we’re really missing rozier.
