Turnovers, Rebounding & Shot Selection Lead To Loss. Series Tied
Turnovers, rebounding and poor shot selection down the stretch led to this extremely disappointing 107-97 loss to tie the series 2-2. We saw a Jayson Tatum masterclass in the first quarter where he scored 12 pts and was super efficient. From there, he only scored 9pts the remaining 3 quarters and ended up shooting 8-23 from the field. JB had a killer start to the 4th with 6 quick points to build a lead back up but then disappeared down the stretch. I know this is oversimplifying it but those two need to be better. They are the pillars of this team and need to show up when it matters most.
This was a game where I thought Robert Williams played great. He played his normal disruptor role and was excellent all night leading up to the 4th quarter where he looked like he was wobbling around a bit which is a bit concerning given his injury history. Derrick White was the other role player that I thought played great. His shooting wasn't super efficient but he was one of the only guys out there that was super aggressive getting to the rim and hit some huge shots. This game really boils down to rebounding, turnovers and better shot selection down the stretch. You can't let Curry and Wiggins get 10 and 16 rebounds respectively. You can't allow 19pts off 16 TOs. You can't let the offense stagnate and settle for contested 3s for 4 minutes straight at the end of the game. This would've been a big win but I stand by my prediction before the series started. Celtics in 6 Baby.
