Really rare for the Celtics not to communicate a switch on the weak side Scott you mentioned both these teams coming off a loss the Celtics of course CED up a 22-point fourth quarter lead in Cleveland Tuesday largest blown fourth quarter lead for the Celtics in a long time holiday on the offensive rebound

Jaylen Brown out to the hometown hero Derek white left his first three short spins past kcp JB on the save on the Baseline and the Celtics with under 10 to shoot still at the Rock Brown goes to work on Caldwell Pope KCK it out for Tatum for one wi start

The game Celtics pounding the glass Jaylen Brown unselfish play and Tatum with the three that is a great sign for the Celtics Tatum and brown will combined two for 17 from distance each guy made just one three-pointer and that 102 to 100 lost January 19th at the Garden here’s Jamal Murray he had

35 in that first meeting yeah he was scorching hot points and 14 assists in the game where they had 102 as a team shoves in for Murray hit the muray threw it right to porzingis the pack Derek white Waits and lays it in Derek white not just playing in his home state

Of Colorado he had a team High 24 in that first match up with the Nuggets yeah and I think for the Celtics the key to this game is to play quick you can get an opportunity to run run you don’t want to play against the Denver Nuggets in the half

Court thought the Celtics did a pretty good job of that early in that first meeting right yeah they had 11 of their 13 fast break points were in the first half just two in the second and that’s when our offense slows down you can see him right now with the emphasis to push

The ball porzingis turns and hits great decision by Tatum good read by porzingis getting out of the screen in row action Christof porzingis came out of the shoot scorching against joic and Denver in the first meeting at 15 points in the first quarter scored the Celtics first 11 of the game

Yic like if you’re not locked in defensively against this team and it’s nothing like you prep to go against you will get Blitz and you will give up a lot of shots like that Mor defend holiday Baseline Drive right to the shot by holiday using his body to seal off

The taller by Porter Jun so let’s keep an eye on the matchups here scy is porzingis on joic holiday on Murray great match up here Murray with a fade away he’s ped that but he left it shortcut it that white always has those eyes up tried to pocket feix to Holiday and

Murray got his hands in there and white takes it right back thrs it up J W Derek white is locked in right now what a play from Derek white winning play after winning play was a moon let that go you got to let that one go Brown called for the

Foul you can’t call that foul it’s physical game Derek white looking gets the steal and then throws it up Jaylen Brown he knows what to do with it yic smart decision getting out of that thing you want to be in a body bag he threw it a mile high

Here’s joic on the drive against poring just discarding him all right what are we going to do here is it going to be a physical game or we going to let that go let’s be consistent round the other direction finishes over quter magical left hand

Man no oh that’s Tech worthy give me a break I’m fired up and then look at this play right here and I’m listen I’ll tell you I’ll be the first to tell you I’m okay with those plays but don’t call the ticky tacky on Jaylen Brown on the other end of the

Floor SC I’m afraid you’re going to get teed up boed oh you’re going to be you’re going to be sweat be sweating Bo so we got two of the best starting fives in the NBA and all 10 players on the floor have already scored in the first four minutes incredible high level basketball

Murray around the screen TS a shot Murray scored anyway yeah that’s what Murray is so good at dribble hand do with yic two-man game with yic it’s his first bucket against this is what it’s all about four point Celtics lead just over four minutes [Applause] in buckets trying to bounce back from an

Overtime loss against Phoenix here Tuesday Mur kicks it out Morton he’s been struggling to shoot the three this year just 29% his lowest since 2018 Brown slams the [Applause] brakes M quick trigger let go can’t do that cannot leave him alone he is a much improved player he gets to empty spots

And he’s 610 with a high release you have to be on his body SC he takes seven threes a game hits him at almost a 4 per [Applause] Cliff holiday finds the open porzingis right over the top of Pur front rimmed it and here’s Aaron Gordon who a lot of the time will bring the ball across half court yic against T the tap pass out to Gordon free throw line jump shot off the

Heel p in is way up but he says that’s the nice thing about it get this though kasab Bonita do you guys know about kasab Bonita no no amazing Mexican restaurant here in Denver it closed it doors after the pandemic but have you challenge accept do SC make some calls
