Ty Lue REACTS to Celtics BLOWING OUT Clippers | Postgame Interview 12/23/23



Ty Lue REACTS to Celtics BLOWING OUT Clippers | Postgame Interview 12/23/23

How you doing Ty uh Boston attempted 53 from Deep today when a team is shooting that many volume threes at that’s type of clip how does it test your perimeter defense especially without kawhai I’m testing a lot you know we knew come into the game um they’re going to shoot a lot

Of Threes they lead a league in three-point attempts and um all their guys can shoot them you know and so U coming to the game we talked about that discussed it you know um even when you think they’re not going to shoot it they’re going to shoot it you know so we

Had to be good at just getting out to those guys making them put on the floor you know making them get I think they’re second to last in the league at you know getting to the basket you know so we know they’re going to shoot threes and

We just didn’t do a good job defensively tonight or offensively as well in that regard hey coach these past two games you know what do you think’s been the biggest adjustment especially on the defensive end without Kawai being there um just you know having a shut

Down corner you know a guy we can put on uh multiple guys to to kind of slow them down a little bit and then just offensively being able to calm us down and um you know run run our sets and run through what we’re trying to do you know

Offensively and so um tonight was a was was a good challenge for us because they they did some things differently you know putting their Center on on guards and you know be able to switch a lot of different things and um we wern’t ready

For that and so um but like I said we can’t I told our team after the game like these last two games don’t let it you know discourage what we built and what we’ve been doing over the last um three four weeks and so we had two bad

Games you know got a chance to be off for Christmas the next two days and then come back Tuesday ready to go and so that’s got to be our mind yeah just to pick it back off that you guys are just coming off the one of the hottest winning streaks in the NBA

Um how do you guys pick that back up that that momentum back up yeah I think you know hopefully getting kawhai back getting him healthy and then just having a chance to get some rest you know um that was a tough trip for us you know

Three and four going to the east coast and then two games in the midwest with a back to back and coming back with an early game you know and so we knew it was going to be a challenge but we didn’t want to use that as an excuse um

You know to start the game I thought you know we were okay I think it’s 14 12 16 14 something like that and then we kind of let the game get away from us you know with that three-point barrage but you know we fouled you know I think

Three or four jump shooters for threes you know and things like that so we just got to be better and like I said we will and we’re not going to get discouraged by these last two games you know we built a lot of good things and so you

Know just come back on um on Tuesday and um hopefully get back on on a winning track t uh I know that you guys were short-handed and you mentioned you know the fatigue how tough this trip was but what were some of the ways that you

Tried to take away uh these shooters and and just the team not being able to execute that part of it yeah I mean we started the game you know blitzing you know liil Jay and just trying to get out of his hands and um I thought we did a

Decent job with it you know and then just you know transition we had some turnovers they got transition threes uh we made some baskets and didn’t get back in transition get matched up little Jay got two threes doing that uh pitri got a three so they probably had seven threes

You know after we scored a basket now get back in transition get matched up and that’s not who we are so we just got to be better with that and Coach only two free throw attempts from your starters tonight do you feel like that was more like Boston

Taking you guys out of your game and you guys maybe were settling when they maybe could have been more aggressive on certain offensive plays um I think you know the switching you know didn’t allow us to get downhill in the pick and roll um and then they did a good job of

Shrinking the floor you know and we knew they going to shrink the floor we knew they was going to you know overh help a lot off certain guys and you know just making those passes and and be a knock down those shots and sometimes we got

Too deep um and couldn’t make the pass and sometimes we made the pass and we didn’t take the shots you know so we got to be confident with that but it wasn’t a lot of driving gaps to get to the basket in order to get fouled

Either Ty in the back the way they offensive rebounded especially in that first half did you feel like you guys were prepared for that um I guess what your evaluation of just the rebounding in general tonight too yeah I mean they’re a big team you know so if you’re

Not boxing out you know when shot goes up and then the biggest thing is a lot of long a lot of long rebounds as well you know they shoot a lot of Threes And so um if you’re not turning and checking you know where your man’s at they’re all

Crashing and long rebounds you know you got to be engaged and understand where the ball’s going to come off at and so uh we didn’t do a good job with that either Ty um you touched on earlier you know you guys had the three- game Road Trip Midwest backto back early game

Today uh no Kawai um how much obviously you take something out of every game but how much do you take out of this game when all those factors you know could have played a part in what we saw it was good you know for me personally because

Just seeing how matched up with a five on on T man and put a five on air and just kind of see how we got to play and for our team to understand that it doesn’t matter who they put the five on if we’re get into our second and third

Actions the five is going to get get involved and I think we did a little too much and like I said it could be a lot on me just from searching out trying to get that five to come into the pick and roll instead of just playing our offense

And eventually getting to that and so it was a good learning experience for me and we’ll be ready next time that happens

  1. Everybody say ty lue is a great coach but aside from lebron era his been a below average coach and just a overated coach the cavs fired him after 20 games because his bad rotation and tactics

  2. I think Ty should be replaced! Absolutely no way his team should be blown away back to back he is making excuses for his team. Somehow he is not inspiring them or preparing them accordingly

  3. Wow. LA media really giving Ty Lue a pass on his team getting blown off the floor. If the score had been opposite and the Cs had dogged it the way the Clips did this game the Boston media would be using it as evidence of how Mazzulla has lost the locker room and cannot coach at all in this league and needs to be fired immediately. Winning a championship really does buy you some serious collateral. 😂

  4. Lue said something important Celtics are second or last in the league getting to the basket. That is by choice if they wanted to get to the basket there more than capable with there top 5 being in the paint just not joes method
