I’m not understanding the ‘no timeout’ thing in certain spots like tonight’s. I get the notion of working toward becoming free-flowing through the flow of games. If the Tatum turnover called for a play call, it probably called for a timeout. Can’t lose a playoff game the same way – 1:06 AM

One (Pritchard layup) of the #Celtics‘ 10 misses in a row during the 4th came in the restricted area. Others were jump shots or short-ranger floaters. Tatum finally broke the 11-possession drought with an and-one finish inside. – 11:58 PM

Joe Mazzulla took the hit on the final play call, but it looks like it only failed because Tatum didn’t sell the look at White on the elbow before he threw the corner pass to Grant. Herro was shifting to White then read Tatum’s eyes and stayed home at the FT line to pick it off. – 11:43 PM

The only half by a team this season in the NBA with more made 3s than the Clippers (15/23) was when the Heat made 16/29 3s in first half at OKC last month.

Morris: 1/2
Batum: 1/1
Covington: 1/1

It’s so pivotal for the Heat to see Victor Oladipo making plays for himself offensively. His presence gives a different dimension, taking pressure off of Herro, Adebayo and Lowry. #HEATCulture – 7:54 PM
