00:00only one game so i don't want to overreact no but you can't you cannot give up a 22 point
00:08lead
00:08and expect to win a basketball game in the national basketball association correct that is what is
00:16very frustrating and i was there it was very convenient time-wise yesterday so i was able
00:22to watch that entire game i am incredibly impressed with pg-13 the man was shot out of a cannon
00:31and
00:32whatever whatever he is on i probably with my 60th birthday looming i probably need to get on it as
00:38well yeah uh i have questions about joe missoula i have questions about jason tatum but it's just one
00:45game i am so sorry to paul george i did not recognize your game i was uh-huh blown away
00:52at
00:52that age to be able to do what he did yesterday you're age shaving no i'm not i i'm i'm
00:58giving
00:59credit where credit is due like that i yesterday i was like you know i hope he stays healthy and
01:04i do
01:04i hope all of that what he did yesterday i was not prepared for no nobody saw that coming i
01:09especially
01:10i mean his from he was there was one point was he was on like a heat check but oh
01:14my deep corner
01:15threes like i i i just he was he was the alpha yeah yeah yeah but i came yesterday afternoon
01:23but i
01:23don't but that was like i don't expect him to be like that every night the question isn't his ability
01:31it's his ability to do it over the course of 82 games yeah and i don't expect that i understand
01:35that
01:36but if tatum's shots aren't falling is he able to step up in those moments that's all we need yeah
01:40and that's and that's what we got and that's what you're gonna get well if tatum i don't expect
01:44tatum to go six or 22 from the field again we hope and and so but you know when you
01:49look at like
01:50those things that's what you want when tatum's having an off night whether it's old man paul george
01:56whether it's p pritch whether it's derrick white you're hoping that somebody else has one of those
02:01nights that you know and it doesn't have to be a 38 burger but you're hoping somebody else has a
02:05good
02:05night i don't know again one game but i don't know if you're gonna be able to count on it
02:10being
02:10derrick white he he and sam hauser are i they're they at least to that game yesterday they're they're
02:17taking up space but i i listen um that was i just hate that i really i know whatever can
02:24we just stop
02:25saying it's one game because we all know it's one game yeah okay i'm trying to be fair there was
02:31some overreaction on our beloved new england patriots so i'm trying to be fair and they
02:35started oh and three last year it's not about the loss i just am so exhausted by the missoula
02:41experience like i never liked him though but right i i that's why i'm exhausted by it yeah
02:47uh i just i i wiggy i agree tatum's not gonna go six for 22 that was a rough night
02:52i don't think
02:53i think tatum's gonna be great he's a great player i'm not worried about him i'm worried about
02:57just the like you allow these runs to just keep going and you keep hocking up the threes there's
03:05never a desire to change anything in game bait like i understand the analytics i understand that
03:10the more threes you shoot the better your odds of winning i understand all of it but there has to
03:14be some feel like we talked about whether it was breslow or it was tracy right that there's a feel
03:21knowing that sunny gray's doing well i know third time through the order i know these things but you
03:25have to understand the moment and the player yeah and watching that just slip away a game they had
03:32dominated a game they just looked so good despite their best player playing poorly and it's like you
03:37let that game get away it was so frustrating that 20 point run in the in the fourth you're just
03:44you're you're sitting there begging joe missoula to do something to do anything and i agree with you
03:51curtis like i he was handed that job because of uh what was going on elsewhere in the organization
03:59and i don't know that he's necessarily the right guy for it so but that's a team though it's built
04:05like that like let me ask you this right you watch that game they went cold from three-point land
04:10and
04:11the um detroit pistons got hot how else do you score when your best player is having an off night
04:17inside the three-point line derrick white does that's not his game no sam houses that's not his
04:22game it could be jason tatum's game so no if you're better if he's having an off night but for
04:28instance
04:28paul george yes um several times fake the three couple steps yeah and gets the shot that it gives
04:37you the best odds of getting it in for two right and somebody needs to tell jason tatum or others
04:43on
04:43that basketball team that it doesn't always have to be a three but jason tatum didn't shoot a lot of
04:50three-pointers last night he only shot seven i granted he was oh or seven but normally he shoots
04:55eight nine ten a game so he's under what he normally shoots so there were a lot of times where
05:01but why can't you take it to the hoop but there were times but there were times where he turned
05:04down
05:05threes and he tried to hit you know some mid-range there was times he went to the to the
05:09to the to the
05:10rack and he missed layups he was off like he wasn't just hawking up threes but your team isn't
05:16like the way your roster is built if your star player is having an off night from everywhere
05:22and you have a guy like paul george stepping up where else do you score points when the three
05:27ball's not falling yeah i mean i don't know maybe in a game like that when jason tatum is
05:34attempting some sort of a bank shot off the uh off the top of the hoop right that doesn't go
05:41anywhere near i know but you're not answering the question i asked you ends up bouncing off right
05:45basically at the foul line right but you're not answering the question i asked you when your superstar
05:50player is off how do you you keep going back to jason tatum yeah jason tatum's off post down like
05:57just oh i robinson uh whoever whoever whoever wants it like right but mitchell robinson's not
06:04an offensive player get a foul like i i don't know like put somebody put bodies in there like but
06:10that's like that's what i'm saying you're not built that way you you're just like but i thought
06:14i thought it was jalen brown was the problem as it pertained to the offensive flow like this
06:21i would much prefer jason tatum and jalen brown to hate each other and joe mazula to be on the
06:26moon
06:26than to watch what i watched yesterday in that fourth quarter when you're hocking up threes
06:31and you have zero desire i want you watch the sixers next game yes okay sixers taking it to
06:37the basket being aggressive drawing fouls being physical like that is the basketball i enjoy
06:43watching but look at their roster though they have joel mb obviously they had jalen brown who's the guy
06:49that last year when he was with the celtics he was i think he led the league or his top
06:53three
06:53getting to the rim yep when you start to look at your even a guy like tyrese maxi unbelievable
06:58because he's so explosive other than jason tatum when he's having an off night how are you scoring
07:05inside the three-point line that is the way you built your roster so i understand that we're going
07:12to criticize tatum but your roster is built that way shireman doesn't shoot anything but three-pointers
07:18sam howser the same thing jordan walsh the same thing so you're saying it starts at the top if
07:22you want to change the way in which joe mazula coaches this team you got to change the players
07:26yes i for me it's just after the game when you hear joe mazula going on and on about like
07:30well
07:31you know jason tatum i always tell him like continue to shoot yeah i understand like continue to shoot but
07:36when your shots aren't falling and it's going over and over and i understand he had he had 11 assists
07:40so
07:40he was he was facilitating as well but shots aren't falling he was missing layups i know
07:44like it was it was surprising this is sal in the car good morning sal good morning greg good morning
07:54everyone how are you all excellent what's going on well i just want to tell courtney i married a
08:00boston college grad 50 years ago oh you lucky man congratulations well well she was lucky because i
08:08went to pc so that's a good match there you go so i'm just calling to say that i agree
08:15with curtis
08:16uh i've been a celtics fan longer than any of you before any of you were born and quite quite
08:22frankly
08:23this is not celtics basketball and and uh i've never liked the style um of play and quite and i
08:33think
08:34that the guy that should be coaching that team is sam to sell uh that's you know that's basically how
08:40i feel about it i watch yesterday's game to me that 23 to zip run is on the coach awful
08:47and you can't
08:49give up 23 to zip not that team no very very frustrating i had to shut it off i couldn't
08:56watch
08:56it anymore sal thank you it is a tough watch like that stretch was infuriating yeah not as infuriating
09:04as the lead up to the next sixers game ben stiller is such a dweeb oh i cannot stand that
09:13guy
09:13like
09:14like
09:14like
09:14like
