The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

They matchup better but this team just has insane levels of lapses even when they have an advantage to feel confident about them

Yah I think the biggest thing for Denver is Boston seems to defend best when they can switch everything.

You can't switch Murray - Jokic
you switch really any screen involving Jokic.
Jokic is squashing any non Horford defender.

Will they have the discipline to play traditional defense, and stay with cutters. If you fall asleep for a sec Jokic is finding a guy for a dunk.
 
Boston could beat Denver, they can play Horford on Jokic and have Rob roam.

Much bigger perimeter players, no guys for Jamal to really go at.

And they can play spread pick and roll and stress out Jokic.


Denver would much rather play Miami imo.
Two drop bigs on the floor against Jamal Murray in PnR coming off 30 ppg on 50/40/90?

Boston would certainly be competitive, but I don’t see 4 wins.
 
You can criticize him for having Strus ignore White.

But Duncan Robinson is the biggest reason Boston didn’t run away in the 4th quarter.

If he didn’t foul so much, he should actually be playing more often, not less.
Listen man, is spo would have had the common sense to check the air pressure in the ball which was clearly overinflated, maybe it doesn’t take that bounce to white

It’s the little things that separate the good from the bad
 
What a terrible basketball game. Celtics 7-35 from 3. Entering the 4th the Heat had the worst paint FG% of any team this year. Don't know where they ended up.

Looked even worse then the numbers.
 
What an insane game. I’m pulling receipts knew this would happen.

I don't think they'd drop on any screen not involving Jokic.

But yah Jokic-Murray gunna be a giant problem.

But given how many 3s they shoot, they got a decent shot.
