By your New England Ford dealers built for America build Ford Crow when asked if you called Bank he said I called game counts nonetheless Hower with the steel leades it for pitri gets it back yes sir house money from the corner and the Celtics have cracked 100 with 838 to
Play welcome to Celtics post game by Scout Chris forsberg Amina Smith here with you Celtics beating the Trailblazers 121 to 9 now two and two on this five game Road Trip forsburg what’s your biggest takeaway after this win by Boston you can tell Sam’s feeling it when he did that little
Skip that’s when you that’s when you’re a little hot and so this is the way it went right like the SEL has got even contributions from their Superstars gave you a little bit at various times Jaylen dominating for stretches just businesslike we keep looking up after these games sometimes and it’s just like
They they just methodical with it at times they had one little slip up second quarter kind of like let that little run Joe calls time out they kind of collect themselves and they’re just businesslike to the Finish knowing that front night of a back toback you probably got some
Rest coming tomorrow you took care of business no no wavering of energy in this game everything was was crisp and everything you listen you don’t make every shot and they don’t miss every shot it’s just not how the league works but I just like the way that this team
Played the ball movement from the start to set off with the 20 assists right from the jump then you talked about the way that in the second half they kept pushing the basketball their spacing was Immaculate they got good shots and it felt like they were genuinely happy for
Everybody’s success that was on the floor so I really enjoyed watching this this team play this particular game and no frustrations about you know like the cat like the Cavs game you know we can remember that and they were playing good and they just like C the Rope none of
That happened in this game against Portland Scout mentioned the 20 assists in the first half let’s take a look at those highlights where the Celtics they were in control from the very start of this game forsburg what was working for the Celtics in order for the to dominate
From start to finish yeah we forget but Al kind of lit the fuse right like three threes in the first couple minutes here had it going a little carryover from making that big one the other night the Celtics just made the right pass it was simple draw a little reluctant when we’re missing
Shots but today we definitely making shots and uh good balance of Outside Inside 20 assists with just one turnover though that’s the thing that I look at one turnover in the first half I think back to last season even season before that we were talking about turnovers
With this Celtics team SC how much better has Boston gotten at just protecting the basketball a little bit has to do with their spacing I think those years that you mentioned they played a lot of five out right now you’ll always see a person in that low
Dunker position so the the floor is more space you see a lot of these where the ball is moving around it’s always finding a corner shooter when you put guys in the corner better space on the floor everything is geared around Jaylen and Jason to make plays well those guys
Need space it’s a lot easier to make those reads with the spacing that the Celtics have right now but with the pace of the game I was worried that this could be a high turnover game for the Celtics if you just get a little bit careless but they didn’t they took care
Of the basketball and good things happened well we saw him at the top of the show Sam Hower he’s with Abby chin after this win Sam congratulations Joe said pregame these next two were going to be tough to close out this road trip how’d you guys get it done uh we just
Played hard made the right reads on offense uh knew our Personnel on defense and made a lot of shots so that helps too you made a lot of shots season High 22 points including 6 threes some from way downtown what did that Rim look like
To you uh you know had a rough first half but was able to turn around in the second half and once you see a couple go you know the the rim gets bigger and you feel more confident was that a little skip you did in front of the Blazers
Bench what was that I’m not even really sure what that was yeah I was fully immerse in the moment the reserve unit riding that momentum from Phoenix how confident is that group right now really confident um you know our job is to come in to bring energy do the little things
Really well and then sometimes we have nights like this where we’re a little bit more involved and we’re always ready when our numbers called and that’s how we put the work in every day finally first team in the NBA to 50 wins how does that sound it’s pretty cool but
We’re uh taking a day at a time not really worried about it Sam thank you congrats you’re welcome all right Sam Hower with a season High 22 Point Scout just how was Sam Hower able to affect the game and how did he look in terms of his
Confidence in this game as well and that ball was flying out of his hands and um you know the biggest thing for Sam is just understanding where space is and where to go when you know if whether that’s coming off a screen to relocate
That’s uh guy d drives and you got to be that emergency release valve in the corner he he sort of understands really how to get his shot off or a catch where he can get a little extra space to uh get away from the defender uh and some a
Smart man told us pregame it wasn’t on our story lines but someone in this little panel here was telling us that the Sam I don’t understand why Sam Hower wasn’t on the story lines when I asked for him because I don’t know if we had numbers for him they were waiting to see
What the starters were and but you were ahead of the curve what made you confident that he was going to have a big night I just felt like our star players are going to move the ball today yeah I was apprehensive about the Jason Tatum over but I was like I really felt
Like Jason tum was going to move the ball so when your stars move the ball you got guys that make shots that’s where I thought we were going to be today a big night for Sam Hower another look at and did you notice he made that pass with the left
Hand Drew Carter and Eddie Al joining us live from Portland to Celtics get their second straight win on this five game Road Trip Drew just what was your biggest take away after watching the Celtics get their second straight win Jaylen Brown’s left hand is magical huh guys ambidextrous it’s official
Officially official um man they moved the ball really well 34 assists just three turnovers fast break points killed them Edie and that’s a spot where I think we knew coming in the Celtics had a big time Advantage I know you were impressed with how they push the pace
And I think the fact that pton Pritchard was in the starting lineup probably helped with the pace cuz that guy’s always moving fast yeah no doubt about it and the thing the fact matter they didn’t turn the ball over and then defensively the way they played on
Defense they ended up with 10 blocks as a team seven steals so they were getting deflections and being able to take those def those defensive stops or the deflections or the blocks or the Steals and turn it into points by getting out in the F on The Fast Break guys you
Remember the Cleveland game they played great through three quarters in the fourth quarter they kind of lost their energy for from our point of view it didn’t seem like they lost any energy even that 110 run in the second quarter by Portland did it feel that way when
They were in in the building that it seemed like they were pretty consistent as far as their energy and their effort I I thought they were consistent I thought they were playing extremely hard that the hence the the 10 blocks and the Seven Steals and a bunch of deflections
And I was telling Drew is that the fact that when I was looking up they we were getting a rebound and the pace they were moving so fast we were getting our action at you know 17 16 you could do a lot of things with that and I love that
Pace for the Celtics even that one one play when Jaylen uh Jaylen Brown dunking the ball with 16 seconds left on the shot clock I mean that’s just playing fast and taking advantage of what you can on defense and I’m not sure what goes down as a fast break bucket and
What doesn’t but there was one play I remember where Jason Tatum he started to slow down at the wing and actually said he takes a foot off the gas just for a moment and then he went to the basket at a two-hand dunk I mean the pace and the
Energy and the force of Celtics played with tonight all super impressive in a game that quite frankly could have been a trap game against a Portland team that is really low in the standings and really banged up too guys the most important question of the night did
Anyone finally track down Rob Williams I knew you going to say it I knew you’re G to say why aren’t you here I did not see Rob Williams I didn’t see him I think he was in the I think he proba was in the back job he might have been you know
What he was hiding from you for he thought you was in the building he was like I got to get away I got to get away from forb saw this NBC Sports loo he said oh my God forest’s here I’m out he said I’m out I so right thanks so much guys let’s
Take a look at the road trip results as we head out to For foree foreign speee Spee for forign fore speee fore foree for foree Fore spee foree spee fore For foree Spee fore spee fore spee foree for foreign spee fore
