00:00The Celtics took the NBA deems four tight free throws last night
00:05between two and four feet, so they were one for four on those.
00:11They took 32 open, quote-unquote, three-pointers.
00:16That's four to six feet of space.
00:18They were seven out of 32.
00:19That's 22%.
00:20In the regular season, they shot 35% on those.
00:23Six-plus feet, wide open.
00:25They took 24 of them, made seven, 29%.
00:27In the regular season, they made 41%.
00:29I mean, these are not hand-in-the-face threes.
00:31These are wide open.
00:32And so I agree with you to a point.
00:33Like, on the Knicks, were they defending well last night?
00:36Not really.
00:37I mean, they forced some turnovers on Tatum.
00:38I don't want to say their defense was, you know, non-existent.
00:42I think they gave a little more, you know, they were a little more difficult to play against
00:49than we probably talked about going in, but they still gave up a million open looks.
00:52I would just, I wouldn't want Missoula or Stevens or anybody upstairs, Mike Zarin,
00:57to just shrug their shoulders and go, ah, well, we just missed some open shots,
01:01and that's all we got to do, and the shots will fall in game two,
01:03and it's a make-miss league, and blah, blah, blah.
01:05I would hate for that to be their takeaway.
01:08Like, the Knicks kind of took it to them.
01:11Yeah.
01:11And the Knicks have some skill, and I wouldn't take it lightly and just chalk it up to,
01:15well, we just missed 45 threes.
01:16That'll never happen again, because that's a good way to lose a series.
01:18Oh, that's true.
