40
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: a couple things. First of all, for some of the

41
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: Celtics fans there Celtics and Heat fans that had asked

42
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: me why we didn't go live after every game in

43
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: this series. Kind of fluky. We did after Game one.

44
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: YouTube TV was down, but I still stayed up late

45
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: and watched the film and recorded. But then when I

46
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: uploaded it to my team, as fate would have it,

47
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: Google was having issues across the board because YouTube was

48
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: not allowing us to upload videos at all, so we

49
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: had to wait till the next day. Then Game two,

50
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: my wife and I were going to a charity event

51
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: that was like a fashion show thing, and I had

52
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: agreed to go with my wife a long time ago,

53
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: so it just was kind of a scheduling conflict. Game three,

54
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: we did go live after the game, and then last night,

55
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: is fate would have it, I was at the Debt

56
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: and Company concert up in Phoenix, tickets that I had

57
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: gotten a long time ago. So we are going to

58
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 1: be covering immediately after the games moving forward. We actually

59
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: did for two of the games. One of them we

60
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: just had some tech difficulties, so I apologized for the

61
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: delay in some of the cover of this stuff. But

62
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna be right after the games the rest of

63
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: the way here, so Boston gets to come from behind win.

64
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: There's a lot I want to dive into, but I'm

65
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: gonna kind of sort it down into three specific things

66
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: that I think Boston has to do down the rest

67
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: of the way to get to be the first team

68
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: in NBA history to come from down three to zero.

69
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: So these are my three points presented by Chase, and

70
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: the first one is very simple and not one that

71
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna dwell on very long. You absolutely have to fight.

72
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: The Celtics gave up in Game three. I thought it

73
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: was fair criticism from the announcers watching the game and

74
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: from the people who covered the game after the fact.

75
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: First two games not so much, right, Like, you throw

76
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: great punches and Miami just out executes you down the

77
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 1: stretch of the game. That happens. It can be discourageing,

78
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: but you're a team that has a talent advantage, and

79
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: the only way that your talent is going to manifest

80
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: on the floor is if you bring the requisite fight.

81
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: We talked about this a lot for Game three, but

82
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: in basketball games, when you're trying to win at this level,

83
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: there is a level of intensity that requires you to

84
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: give extra efforts when you are truly exhausted, and the

85
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: only way you're gonna do that is, if you have

86
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: a belief in your ability to reach the goal and

87
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: you have enough competitive fight in you to continue to

88
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: push when you're out of gas. And in Game three,

89
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: that fight was not there. In this game, every single

90
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: time Miami came with the run, there was fight from Boston.

91
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: I have no idea what the deal was. I don't

92
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: know if it was just the humiliation of Game three.

93
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was just kind of a

94
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: look in the mirror moment for the guys. I don't

95
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: know if it was something Joe Mizula did. But as

96
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: a team, they brought a level of effort that they

97
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: hadn't brought in the first three games of the series.

98
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: And that is first and foremost the biggest reason why

99
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: they extended the series. So Number one, in order for

100
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: them to win four straight and get to the finals,

101
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: they had have to fight every single minute that they

102
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: are on the floor. Number Two, they need to embrace

103
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: the defensive end as the true identity of the team.

104
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: The defense has not met as good this year for

105
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: Boston as it was last year, not only in the

106
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: regular season, but in this playoff run. Before last night,

107
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,559
Speaker 1: the Celtics were allowing one hundred and fourteen, one hundred

108
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: and fourteen points per one hundred possessions. To give you

109
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 1: an idea, last year in the postseason they allowed one

110
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: hundred and six. So their defense is eight points worse

111
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: than it was last year. That's a significant decline and

112
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: one that's tough to make up for on the offensive end.

113
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: Last night, their defensive rating was one oh five point three.

114
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: So last night really, for the first time in this postseason,

115
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: especially given the stakes and the matchup, they engaged themselves

116
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: defensively to a level that they have not consistently done

117
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: this entire season. I think that, foundationally is why they

118
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: were able to win. Why because when you look down

119
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: the roster, I think Jimmy Butler is actually a better

120
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 1: player than Jason Tatum in terms of his overall skill

121
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: set in basketball IQ right, And I think Eric Spolster

122
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: is the best coach in the series. I think down

123
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: the roster that just simply focusing on the skill set,

124
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: Miami has a lot of skill. They got a lot

125
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: of guys that can dribble and shoot right. The true

126
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: advantage for Boston is the combination of that skill with

127
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: their size and athleticism advantage, particularly on the perimeter. They

128
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: just have a lot of guys who are big and

129
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: tall and can move at a much higher level than

130
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: the guys in the Miami Heat jerseys. That's their biggest advantage,

131
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: And so when Boston kind of devotes their resources to

132
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: the offensive end, it kind of plays more into Miami's strengths,

133
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: which is their skill set. Right, Like, if you want

134
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: to get into a offensive execution match with Miami, Miami's

135
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: probably gonna beat you, right, But if you can devolve

136
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: it into a rock fight where defense is the name

137
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: of the game, Boston's gonna win a lot of the

138
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: time because when they devote their resources to that side

139
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: of the floor, they're just so much bigger and so

140
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: much more athletic that it can be deeply impactful. We

141
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: think a lot about athleticism with offense because it's driving

142
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: by guys and going up to dunk or rebounding situations

143
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: because it's jumping up and high pointing the ball. But

144
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: on the defensive end, that's literally the best way that

145
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: you can impact winning with your athleticism, just by the

146
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: ability to keep the basketball in front, fly around in rotation,

147
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: and help situations. That's simple, and it manifested everywhere on

148
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: the floor. In that game, when they were making those

149
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: efforts in ways that they were not earlier in the series,

150
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: they blocked eight shots. They were averaging five blocks in

151
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: the series before that. They forced the Heat into sixteen

152
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: turnovers and scored twenty seven points off of those turnovers.

153
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: They held Miami to forty three point six percent shooting.

154
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: Miami had been shooting fifty two percent in the series

155
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: before that. As a result, they were able to get

156
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: more stops and get out in transition. They had twenty

157
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: five points in transition in this game. They had averaged

158
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: twenty per game in the first three games of the series.

159
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: So if that's their biggest advantage in the series, which

160
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: is like, we don't have the same coach, our star

161
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: is not quite as good, Our overall skill set is

162
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: a little bit closer to even than you would think.

163
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: But our biggest asset is we are the bigger, stronger,

164
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: more athletic team. If that's the case, that needs to

165
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: be where you devote your resources, because that's your biggest

166
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: chance to gain an advantage on Miami. And I thought

167
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: that was a huge advantage in game four, especially since

168
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: they are so prone to ugly, offensive stretches. Angie's list

169
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: is now Angie your home for everything home. Angie doesn't

170
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: just get your home projects done, Angie gets them done well.

00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 1: With twenty plus years of experience combined with new tools

172
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: to simplify the process, Angie makes completing home projects easy.

00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: With over two hundred and twenty thousand pros in their network,

174
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: Angie makes it easy to research, compare, and hire pros

Speaker 1: by others in your area who have actually used their services.

178

Speaker 1: You all know what it's like to own a home.

179
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: You walk around. I walk into the kitchen the other

180
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: day and my refrigerator is just making this horrible grinding noise.

181
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: Or on Saturday, we were having a pool party, I

182
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: had to use a couple outlets that I hadn't used

183
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: in a while, and I found three or four outlets

184
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: around the house that just didn't work. And that's super annoying.

185
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: But the best part about Angie is it's a great

186
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: tool to help you find the best available deal to

00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: a ngi dot com. Last, but not least, number three,

193
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: they need to run as much of their stuff through

194
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum as possible. So last night, Jayson Tatum had

195
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: a usage percentage of thirty point four percent. Now, usage

196
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: percentage is an imperfect way to measure this sort of thing,

197
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: but it basically amounts to the percentage of your possessions

198
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: where you're either the guy who shoots the ball or

199
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: makes the pass to the guy who shoots the ball. Right,

200
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: that's your usage percentage. I'm pretty sure that's the calculation.

201
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: It's some combination of passing and shooting, but it's an

202
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: advanced analytic So in Game three, Jason Tatum's usage percentage

203
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: was twenty five point nine, so much lower in Game

204
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: one and two at home twenty nine point three. So

205
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 1: Game four was Jason Tatum's highest usage game of the series.

206
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 1: Why is that important? One, he's the best player on

207
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: the team, obviously, but more specifically, he has the best

208
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: combination of overall offensive skill and the ability to get

209
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: the defense in rotation and the playmaking chops to be

210
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: able to make the read when the defense is in rotation.

211
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: You could argue Jalen Brown is maybe a little bit

212
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: better as a slasher and a little bit more versatile

213
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: as a score. You could argue that, right. I mean,

214
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum has been better than him in this series

215
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: by a mile, because Brown's had a rough series. But

216
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 1: you could argue Jalen has some of that ability, but

217
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: he's not in the same stratosphere as Jason Tatum as

218
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: a passer. Guys like Marcus Smarter much better passers than

219
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,719
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum, but they don't have nearly the amount of

220
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: ability to compromise the defense and get the defense into rotation.

221
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum is your best combination of those two things.

222
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: So because he's your best option there, you need to

223
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 1: flow through a more. But secondly, it's also the best

224
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: chance to keep him in rhythm. There are two reasons

225
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: why Jimmy Butler has been so good in this series. One,

226
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: he's the best player in the series. But two, he

227
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: always has the ball in his hands. He is making

228
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: every decision, so he's always in rhythm. The ball always

229
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: feels good, his handle feels good, his release feels good.

230
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,599
Speaker 1: Why because everything flows through him. Jimmy Butler has a

231
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 1: usage percentage of thirty one percent in this series. That's

232
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: higher than any single player any team in the Conference

233
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: finals so far. So Jimmy Butler is the high usage

234
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: guy and that's an advantage to Miami in this series

235
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 1: because he's been the best player and he's been in

236
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: rhythm more frequently. So it's really it's time to lean

237
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: into that with Jason Tatum. It's time to get him

238
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: into that type of rhythm, and they did last night.

239
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum was the guy who stifled every single Miami

240
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: Heat run in that game. And I have three runs

241
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: in particular that I want to kind of shout out

242
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: for Jason Tatum. So you guys might remember a sequence

243
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: in the early third quarter where Max Strews shoots the

244
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: three and Jayson Tatum's kind of trailing the play in transition,

245
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: reaches over the top and blocks the shot. Big, big

246
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 1: time defensive play, and the ball just happens to kind

247
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: of bounce off to the left and Max Strus just

248
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: goes and gets it, and just by pure luck, it

249
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 1: happens to land in a place where he's in a

250
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: spot where he could take another three, and he takes it,

251
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: and he makes it bad luck play down nine, which

252
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: first starters brings us back to point one in their fight.

253
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: This is the kind of time in Game three where

254
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: Boston just let go of the rope. They did not

255
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: in this game. Most importantly, Jason Tatum was the guy

256
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: who took over the offense from that point. He hits

257
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: back to back threes to get it back to three.

258
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: When they went up nine one against Kevin Lovin, dropped

259
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: coverage where he just comes off of a ball screen,

260
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: gets a good amount of separation, and then after that

261
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: on the left wing, just a regular catch and shoot three.

262
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: But Jason Tatum is the guy that's shooting them back

263
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: into the game. So the Sea's going a huge run

264
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: from there, and they get up by nine, but then

265
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: Miami goes on a run and they get it back

266
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: to four. Now it's seventy three to sixty nine, and

267
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: Jason Jason Tatum takes over two of the next three possessions.

268
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: There was a clear side iso against Caleb Martin, which

269
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: we'll get into the schematics ofven a minute, but they

270
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: clear the floor and leave Jason Tatum solely on the

271
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: right side of the floor against Caleb Martin hits him

272
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: with the jab step and knocks down the shot from

273
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: the mid range. Then two possessions later, he runs a

274
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: pick and pop with Grant Williams at the top of

275
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: the key and he's trying to target max S Truce

276
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: and which so they end up but they end up

277
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: running like a hedge and recover thing. So Caleb Martin

278
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: follows Jason Tatum and before Strews can recover, Tatum just

279
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: hits the I think it was a behind the back

280
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: pass if I remember correctly, to Grant Williams at the

281
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: top of the key and he hits a three. So

282
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: again Tatum running the offense. Two buckets and three possessions.

283
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: Now the leads back up. Then early in the fourth quarter,

284
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: Miami goes on another run to get it down to

285
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: eighty eight to eighty three, and Jason Tatum kind of

286
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: starts down on the block, flashes up to the high

287
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: post like just right above the free throw line, and

288
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: catches and shoots an easy short jumper, knocks it down,

289
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: and then two possessions later he's posting up. Caleb Martin

290
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: on the right side of the floor another cleared side

291
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: post up, so instead of a face up, he's turned

292
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: his back to the basket, but he's by himself on

293
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: the right side of the floor. They've cleared the sign.

294
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: Miami double teams hard with bam Atebaio. Marcus Smart cuts

295
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: from the top of the key, gets under the basket,

296
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: Tatum hits him on the bounce he makes the shot

297
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: under the rim. So again, three big runs in this

298
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: game that Jason Tatum stifled by being the focal point

299
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: of the offense shot making the first time and then

300
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: in the second two bursts a combination of playmaking and

301
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: shot making, because that's the best player on Boston's roster

302
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: that can do both well. But there's two specific elements

303
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: there that I think probably stood out to you guys

304
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: if you've been listening to the show over the course

305
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: of the series, that I think also helped Jason Tatum

306
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: get going clearside ISOs. So what I was talking about

307
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: early in the series was not only is Jimmy Butler

308
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: having a better series than Jason Tatum, but also Eric

309
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: Spolshra and Jimmy have been really smart about the way

310
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: they've been attacking. So again with the clearside ISOs, when

311
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: you run the defender, you run your offensive players to

312
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: the other side of the floor. Yes, the Celtics can

313
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: leave them and stay in help, but it becomes more

314
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: difficult to do so. So if I'm in a traditional

315
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: four out set, for instance, and I'm on the left wing,

316
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: and I've got shooter in the left corner, and I've

317
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: got a shooter on the right wing, a shooter in

318
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: the right corner, and a shooter in the dunker spot,

319
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: with the regular defensive shell drill, they can dig off

320
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: on my left hand driving lanes, they can dig off

321
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: in my right hand driving lanes, and then the guy

322
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: guarding the guy in the dunker spot can kind of

323
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: pop into the paint, pop out of the paint, Pop

324
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: into the paint, pop out of the paint. Right A

325
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: lot more hell defense that I have to deal with. Now,

326
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: if I clear the side and all three shooters are

327
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: on the other side, and I've got my big man

328
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: just kind of oscillating between the dunker spot and kind

329
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: of like a high post kind of flash area now

330
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: on this right side of the floor, if they want

331
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: to leave one of those shooters on the weak side,

332
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: they've got to come all the way to the other

333
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: side of the paint, otherwise it's going to be a

334
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: defensive three seconds, which is what we call zoning up.

335
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: When you completely ignore your man to come over to

336
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: the other side of the floor. You've got to rotate

337
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: all the way across, like twenty feet to the other

338
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: side if there's a shot. So a lot of teams

339
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: will opt to just stay on the week's side the

340
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: floor right and they'll have a foot in the paint,

341
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: but they're not in a position where they can help,

342
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: and you've simplified the action to clear the side. The

343
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: right hand driving lane is wide open. The left handed

344
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: driving lane goes towards the middle where you're gonna draw

345
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: help from the big man, and you've got your big

346
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 1: man there as a release valve. Miami's been great with

347
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: that the entire series. When Jimmy's attacking Marcus Smart or

348
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: excuse me, when Jimmy's attacking Malcolm Brogden or Derek White

349
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: or Al Horford, they clear the side. And for the

350
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: most part for Boston it's been a lot more kind

351
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: of like in the flow of their four out one

352
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: end stuff. They'll give the ball to Jason Tatum or

353
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: Jaylen Brown and have them attack, and the spacing just

354
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 1: isn't as good. It's a lot easier for Miami to

355
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,239
Speaker 1: dig and recover. And like I've said before, Boston has

356
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that can shoot, but none of

357
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: them are like absolute dead eye like Duncan Robinson type

358
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 1: shooters where you cannot leave them open even with a

359
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: tiny bit of space, kind of like with KCP and

360
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: Michael Porter Jr. Which makes that a lot harder to

361
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,040
Speaker 1: close out on. Like if you are digging down in

362
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: to a driving lane on Jason Tatum and that's Marcus

363
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: Smart on the wing and he throws that pass, a

364
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: good hard closeout is probably going to bother him or

365
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: chase him off the line. So it's so important for

366
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: Boston to have good spacing principles for Jason Tatum to

367
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 1: go to work, and clearing the side is the best

368
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: way to do that, just like Miami has been doing.

369
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: Those two baskets I talked about the jab step jumper

370
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: on Caleb Martin and then the post up where he

371
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: hits Marcus Smart on the cut. Those were both cleared

372
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: side actions. So that's one thing I want Boston to

373
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: run a lot more as we look forward in the series.

374
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: And then secondly, attacking from the midterange. Two of those

375
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: runs there was that flash to the high post where

376
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: he hit the jumper over the top of Bam at

377
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: a bio and then the jab step jumper on Caleb Martin.

378
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: Those are like nineteen twenty foot jump shots. They're just

379
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 1: much higher percentage for Jason Tatum. And again analytically, I

380
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 1: understand the advantage of taking a three, but against a

381
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: defense that is chasing you off the three point line

382
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: and trying to funnel you into the paint and a

383
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: little bit more willing to con those mid range shots,

384
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: you're just gonna hit him at a higher percentage, which

385
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: is gonna make them worth more per possession anyway, not

386
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 1: to mention it makes you more unpredictable and harder to

387
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: solve over the course of a game. So again, he's

388
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,239
Speaker 1: Jayson Tatum's not as good as Jimmy Butler. I think

389
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: Jimmy's proven that, but he's very close. And so if

390
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: you run everything through Jason Tatum, he's gonna come close

391
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: to playing that matchup evenly. And then from there the

392
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: rest of your talent will make up the gap, especially

393
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 1: on the defensive end of the floor. But they've got

394
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: to run through Tatum. They've got to set him up

395
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: to succeed with proper spacing, and Tatum has to be

396
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: more willing to score in the mid range. That to

397
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: me is the third and final key to the Celtics

398
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 1: getting back and winning this series. My three points were

399
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 1: brought to you by Chase Freedom Unlimited. Earn five percent

400
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: on travel purchased or Chase three percent on dining including takeout,

401
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: three percent at drug stores and one point five percent

402
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 1: on everything else. How do you cash back? All right?

403
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: What do I think will happen? I'm I belie the

404
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: heater are gonna win the series because I think it

405
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: will be extremely difficult to beat Jimmy Butler and bam

406
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: Adebayo and Eric Spolshra four times in a row, simply

407
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: put standing right now at three to one, that's just

408
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 1: a safer bet. But can the Celtics do it? Absolutely?

409
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: In fact, I would argue that they now probably have

410
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: the best chance to do it in NBA history again.

411
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 1: And it's funny because I was so dead on in

412
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: first round and second round I've been so off in

413
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 1: these conference finals it's not even funny. But like I

414
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: told you, guys before the playoff run, that's how it's

415
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: supposed to be. I was literally just getting lucky when

416
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: I was picking matchups in the first two rounds. But

417
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 1: I said that I thought the Celtics were far more

418
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: likely to get swept than the Lakers were because they

419
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 1: had quit, and at the time, through three games, that

420
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: was the evidence that we had the Lakers that competed

421
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: in all three games. The Celtics had only competed in

422
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: two of the three games and had most recently quit

423
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: in Game three and got their butts kicked. So it

424
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: just seemed like to say, for bet, they have flipped

425
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: that dynamic simply by fighting, and so as a result,

426
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: a fighting, desperate Celtics team that has a legitimate talent

427
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: advantage against Miami, that's where you're getting the real capability

428
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: for them to come back and pull this off. Like, guys,

429
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: they're an eight point favorite in game five, like they're

430
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: down three to one, but they are going to be

431
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 1: a significant favorite in every game, Like they're an eight

432
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: point favorite in game five if they win Game six

433
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: in Miami, Boston will be a five point favorite in

434
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: all likelihood or somewhere around those along those lines. Then

435
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: if they go home for game Game seven, they're gonna

436
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: be like an eight or nine point favorite. Right. So, like,

437
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: clearly the Vegas thinks they're the more talented team. I

438
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: think they're the more talented team. Jimmy in the Heat

439
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: and Eric Spolstra have deservedly gone up three to zero

440
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: by demonstrating that they're a better overall basketball team through

441
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: people embracing their role, competing in all the areas of

442
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,479
Speaker 1: the game, execution and coaching. Right, they've demonstrated that. But

443
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: Boston does have more talent, which is why even after

444
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: they had quit Miami was only a one point favorite

445
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: in Game four at home. This team has the talent

446
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 1: to do it. They just have to fight and they

447
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: have to execute. Again, it's the Heat are by far

448
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: the safer bet, But the Celtics can absolutely do this.

449
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: They are They're every bit as likely, if not more

450
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: than any team in NBA history to do so. All right, guys,

451
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: that is all I have for today. So the plan

452
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: for right now tomorrow morning, I'm gonna be working on

453
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: kind of like an obituary for the Los Angeles Lakers

454
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: going into their offseason, so keep an eye on that.

455
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: And then tomorrow night we'll be going live after the

456
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: final buzzer of Game five of the Eastern Conference Finals

457
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: between the Celtics and the Heat. And then we got

458
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 1: lots of plans over the course of the next week

459
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: or so breaking down the NBA Finals from a bunch

460
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: of different angles. We're gonna be doing some stuff with

461
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: the nerd sash guys. We're gonna be doing deep dives

462
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: on both ends of the for It'll be a lot

463
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: of fun. Alright, guys, I appreciate you, and I'll see

464
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: you tomorrow night. The Volume
