The Tuesday Crew Reacts To The Boston Celtics 9-game Win Streak | NBA on TNT

Cleveland run continues they’ve now won 19 of their last 23 heard what kandace said during the break America was crude uh Boston taking on Philadelphia no embiid wide open Lane for Jaylen Brown to drive down Brown doing everything he could in the first half to keep the Sixers in it

Energy never waned here Tobias Harris ten gets the lay in cute Rocky Top Philly had the lead in the second quarter and then Jaylen Brown transition basket 31 11 of 14 from the floor for Jaylen brown but again as Candace said Tyrese never ever quits get to your

Spot you talk about Luca at his Pace Tyrese is the opposite it’s always 100 miles all gas no breaks yes and you think Boston playing against Philly with no and be would be up big here they up by 11 but yeah third quarter they began to pull away but I mean Boston didn’t

Shoot well from Beyond oh and damn you’re right games that they normally shoot well this would have been a blowout Boston shot five of 22 from three under 23% from the floor but they outrebounded the Sixers 56- 28 wow a lot Boston has been step through

Has been let leads slip away it’s hard to rebound without your 7ot Center OH 291 and8 for Jason Tatum in the fourth quarter 18-2 run Boston wins this one 117 to 99 holding the Sixers under 100 Maxi with 32 again embiid will be re-evaluated next week as we are about 3

Weeks after his miniscus surgery and Boston 46 and 12 they Advance Jaylen Brown afterwards pleased with the win this team is known for shooting three-pointers tonight you did not shoot a lot you didn’t make a high percentage and you still created separation yeah tonight was a little bit different I

Think we only made like five three-pointers tonight we didn’t shoot the ball great but we got a lot of different ways we can win and uh we just being humble and playing a game that we love and having a good time while we doing it yeah I think it’s rewarding

That uh you know we have a balanced enough team a good enough team that we can win you know we can win physical games we can win you know fast-paced games you know we can outthink other teams so we got to be well grounded wasn’t this the

Opponent where you asked me if we shot too many threes like game four of the Year philadelph full circle huh what a beautiful moment and we’ve never said we have to win doing this that’s never been stated we always take what the defense gives us this this game was probably one

Of our best games of the year from the standpoint of we were able to win a different way and this game showed a template of how uh teams are going to guard us and it gives us another thing to practice 83 points from Jaylen Brown Jason Tatum and Kristof porzingis combined seemingly every different game a different Boston Celtics steps up takes control tonight the story as you heard from Coach Joe mul and the players our threes weren’t falling we found another way uh I heard from you guys both in pregame against

Boston he was at the salon what do we think about Boston the number one team in terms of record but the question always as you like to put out there what are you going to do for me in the playoffs you know in the playoffs you know it’s always two tals

You know we know they shoot a lot of Threes but Boston problem has been if we don’t shoot threes well we just keep shooting tonight they mix it up very well if they can get a steady diet of mixing up especially when the three is not falling they’ve been successful

Doing that they continue to be successful I don’t know if they’re big two I don’t know if they’re big three but if they if they are a big two I want porzingis to be that other and you know he he’s a very important other if he can

Give me high 20s in the playoffs Boston going to be very difficult to beat but again we all know this up here playing when the jumper is not falling you have to go for the high percentage shot they did that tonight and they won the game

So if they could learn how to do that more consistently and learn how to put teams away they definitely have a shot at you know winning the championship but we was there last year where they shoot shoot shoot shoot Miss keep shooting you got to mix it up to win championships 23

And 12 for porzingis the other thing that’s jumping out to me right now 30 4 of 37 from the free throw line 92% porzingis was 12 of 12 Jason Tatum was 10 of 11 they hit their free throws they drove the lane that’s what the impressive part is cuz they’re going to

Have games in the playoffs where they only make five threes and to Shaq’s Point can you supplement that by getting extra points 34 from 37 from the free throw line is unbelievable and I’m not sure it’ll be at that rate and then the shaqs point as well porzingis has to be

The other but the thing that’s special about him is he could be like Bosch was to Miami where he doesn’t disrupt the other two and still play off of it he can be the guy that still is like a a second option but still has a third option humility

About him where he can play off those two and that’s what makes him special I feel like when we talk about Boston we immediately start comparing them to teams in the Western Conference do you have anyone in the East challenging them I know last year Miami was the surprise

Team and none of us could have predicted that but just looking at the standings now in paper I mean if this Cleveland team M if this Cleveland team shows up um but I also think sometimes it’s matchup wise right like are you yeah cuz here’s the thing Cleveland and Milwaukee both have size

Cleveland and Milwaukee both have size but also you get a first round matchup with the Pacers oh yeah you get a first round match up with the Pacers where it’s literally just and you’re off on threes or you don’t shoot the ball well that’s the wrong and they get lucky

That’s the WR I think that’s the wrong Boston won the season series either 31 or 4 but they won when it mattered to go what was gotta they won Playoff regular season how you how you approach teams listen well it wasn’t my Approach I know

That whatever I average I had to add I had to add five to seven to it for us to be successful cuz like you’re going to prepare for me averaging 28 and 10 yes now I got to I got to take that up to 35

To 40 CU you’re not going to be prepared for that but that was a great answer cuz if if you would have said Indiana I was going to say people need to watch out for Indiana Tyrese halberton only thing I’ll say about Indiana and we’re going to have more

Data in a few weeks the shift of going from a buddy heel to a seak the the stats are starting to change with this offense the three-point percentage is starting to go down the strategy is starting to change we all have inseason tournament Indiana in our heads it’s a

Different Indiana team great Indiana team but a different Indiana team did you not like the way I said data way people always talk about data someone has to do it bro we from the hood we don’t give a damn about no damn data what is the hood version of data go in

There and bust your ass right Candace you on the eye test huh back me up Candace back on the Block Jack on the Block manck on the Block he care about the we’ll see if they can bust that in the play rpis and warps and what that take it to the playground take

That’s m resp oh Straight Cash them boys got the juice right now I say yeah dat and Donan you ain’t got to worry about me I’ll jump in a fight she said yeah with her hand coming up next we’re going to take one more look at yet another 30o performance from

SGA data we don’t need no stinking data

  1. These guys don’t even mention Derrick white. He’s been one of our most important players all year. We getting that 18th banner this year.

  2. if they can start winning games by not having 2 shoot 3's (in a 3 point era) they will be even more unstoppable for when the 3's are falling

  3. Hold on Candace… the In-Season ain’t the same as the playoffs… KP sat out for health for the In-Season… you play in the playoffs unless your on crutches.

  4. Indiana is 27 out of 30 teams in defense, 33-26 on the year and 6-4 in their last 10. They are who we think they are: a fun to watch scoring team that relies on fast breaks (which goes away in the playoffs) that can't/won't guard anyone.

  5. DON'T FORGET: Celtics lost not long ago to their classic rival, Lakers, without James and Davis. A game like that can't be lost. Celtics give doubts when it matters the most.

  6. I’ve been telling folks from day 1: IF BOSTON CATCH PACERS OR MAGIC IN FIRST ROUND, CELTICS FANS BETTER BE PREPARED TO GO FISHING 🎣. At the end of the day, the only legit Juggernaut in the NBA is the Milwaukee Bucks. They are going to win the championship rather convincingly and I would not be surprised if they go 16-0. This Bucks team has zero weaknesses. You can harp on there perimeter defense but that was over exaggerated due to lack of effort. Celtics style of play and lack of interior presence is glaring which make them susceptible to getting upset by lower seeds in first round. Especially by the Pacers who style of play mirrors Celtics. Also I am starting to feel like Halliburton would be best players on floor over Tatum in that series.

  7. The fact that the Celtics only had 5 three pointers on this game and still won by almost 20 is insane. Candice is right. If this were a game where the shots were falling, this wouldn't even be close.

  8. I remember when Celtics fans got so devastated when Smart got traded. I already knew that time that KP will be the perfect fit for the Celtics roster. Look at them now compared to the previous seasons/playoffs.

  9. By the way, I would like to congratulate young Joe Mazzula on being one of the league's hot up and coming coaches despite being crosseyed

  10. cleveland has a losing record versus teams over .500 and match up terribly with the celtics. the pacers and heat are the scariest for the celtics

  11. Leader….Jaylen Brown….Leads team in scoring with 14 shots…11/14…31….and in his interview he says WE didnt shoot the ball well….in tatums interview…he called himself the best player in the league.🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

  12. The guy in the off white suit isn't it. A bit condescending with that "what would be the hood version of data?" Comment. And this isn't his first yucky demeanor I've noticed. Get him on the analytical team and away from the camera.

  13. Having Tatum and brown on the team is OP. They are out here just JAMMING on everyone out here. Best duo since wade and LBJ
