 Welcome in the Celtics post game live Eddie house Amina Smith here within the south with a dominant win against the Kings on the road 144 to 119 a fast-paced matchup between these two teams a lot of scoring in this matchup as well all done without Jason Tatum Eddie what was the story of this game for you well I have time I said you know our Achilles heels the third quarter how we gonna come out how we gonna respond in the third quarter and it was Jalen Brown actually it was Jaylabs bro zingas yes it was them to combine I mean you talk about what Jalen Brown at 15 poor zingas have 14 but very efficient of what they did and I know there were a lot of threes that were shot today but in that third quarter Jalen Brown didn't make a three poor zingas made one three but they went to the free throw line five times a piece that means they were aggressive they were you know being the aggressor putting pressure on the defense because that was something that I don't think that we did in the first half put a lot of pressure on the on the paint it was a lot of threes that was being shot but they put a lot of pressure on the defense got to the free throw line knocked their free throws down and then D white D. Oh yeah Derek White is first let me say it Derek White has been become my favorite player and a assassin he's been on my favorite player because he does all of the things every little thing that you could think of and then on top of that his daddy's a great follow on Twitter man rambling wreck you got to go follow him on Twitter because he is a great follow on Twitter he knows he knows basketball and so I mean those three guys right there by their self 36 points in that third quarter alone that's what that's where the separation was Derek White lit the match in this match up against the Sacramento Kings he was at me chin after this win Derek 144 points 22 threes you guys had five players with 20 plus points how would you describe what occurred here offensively you're just playing the right way getting good looks and knocking them down playing up and down I mean they're they play fast and we won't play fast too so it was a fun game you had six of those threes to go along with seven assists and three blocks you working on that all start now I'm just trying to win games that's all I'm focusing on right now and I keep winning and see what happens the return of Chris stops you can't deny the impact he has on this team how does it change what you guys are doing out there he's unreal matchup nightmare protecting the paint for us it has a little bit everything for us so it's always nice having them out there and then you think Jalen Brown best in-game dunker in the NBA by far by far the best in-game dunker I mean he dunk on someone once every other game I feel like it's he's special finally the second night of a back-to-back coming off of a tough loss you guys are without two of your top six players what does this win mean yeah I mean second I have back-to-back two guys out people probably had people probably make excuses why we don't need to win but we had a right mindset coming in the game and came out with the right way and got a good one the good road win Derek thank you congratulations appreciate it it was raining threes in tonight's matchup a look at this presented by the Massachusetts health connector the deadline for new year's coverage is December 23rd go to ma health connector dot org today act now and stay covered both teams combined for 19 threes in the first quarter that tied an NBA record for any quarter the both teams also combined for 28 threes in the first half that also tied an NBA record for any half and both these teams combined for 43 threes in this game that's just one shy of the NBA record in the Celtics with the season high 22 threes made 22 threes made tonight any what was working from beyond the arc for the Celtics in this matchup it wasn't much resistance from the Sacramento Kings they weren't playing much defense or or forcing them to penetrate they wasn't running the guys off the line they were actually giving up the threes I think they looked at what happened last night with the 41 miss threes and they're like hey we look we can live with that they're gonna keep taking them well that's the gift in the curse with this team if they have it going they gonna knock them down and you know you have games like this and in the nice that they don't have it going they'll continue to shoot them I think they got to find that perfect balance but tonight it was going in and I mean it was play after play making the play making the right play getting wide open shot passing up a shot right there true how they could have took that three but he passed it over and got a better shot Peyton Pritchard came in I think everybody came in with a different focus I asked scowl said it on on the on the broadcast he was saying that the bus ride was quiet right there was nobody talking so that means they care that means that they knew that they let that one slip away last night they could have been a lot better they could have got that win and they came out tonight I thought that they didn't impose their will and it started with JB JB it obviously was out of sight tonight and Drew Carter and scowl joining us live right now from Sacramento and scowl I go back to the first quarter in this matchup where Derek White had a big block where the Celtics they were down in this game how did that change the momentum for the Celtics yeah I think it was a poor zingus block on the Deiren Fox layup think about the score it's 11 to 23 Deiren Fox makes that layup and he's one of the best guys in attacking in transition it's 11 to 25 flip the script we get the block we score seven straight points and actually you know like the floodgates open for the Celtics so that's a sneaky big playlist and who knows if there wasn't another big play that would have happened I just know at that point in time those four point swings in a game like this that was a big deal nice play by poor thing is and after that block eyes Mike Brown called two time outs in one minute and four seconds which is everything you know they were out of timeouts with like eight minutes left in this game because Celtics just kept coming on those runs it was like an avalanche the entire night really hey Drew how does it feel to be on the winning side of things finally let's go get over the home baby get on cuz I know for a second you cut the road man cut the community over here right now and drew anyone a little worried he was like I don't know he's like drew gotta get us out the gutter on the road I don't know what's going on when he said you know my garments 15 and 0 you could tell that he was thinking about his record you know he was thinking about it I was thinking about it I'm wearing this shirt for the Clippers game Drew just how would you describe you know what you saw from this Celtic team in terms of their demeanor in tonight's match up coming off of that loss against the Warriors and overtime just last night I thought it was a super impressive response and not only from last night's game Amina but from the start I mean you guys are talking about that I think it's easy to forget that Celtics were down double figures early in that first quarter and it was all about the response again from yesterday and then from that early performance where the Kings kind of jumped them and this place was loud I mean this is one of the best home court advantages in the NBA and for the Celtics to do that missing their best player missing another one of their top six guys and then missing Luke Cornette we got to throw him in there I think it was just an amazing performance and I think that that plane ride to LA is going to be a little bit more lively than the bus ready you've been a part of a lot of plane rides bus fries whatever I've never I've never been on an out it was an hour and a half an hour and a half and there wasn't a sound on that bus the whole time it was at the point Eddie it was so quiet so the Warriors their PR staff they give you people who were on that bus the whole time it was at the point Eddie it was so quiet so the Warriors their PR staff they give you peanut M&M's every time you come to their gym oh yeah I was trying to eat my peanut M&M's and I didn't want to like crinkle the bag you know it was that quiet I'm telling you Eddie yeah this in the NBA 15 20 minutes they start to you know people start to chop it up a little bit 20 30 40 minutes people start saying jokes yeah 90 minutes Eddie 90 minutes not a peep in the I don't I don't know what bus two was like a bus three but 90 minutes not a single word was set on that bus they was focused and you know what let's say this like the the Achilles heel has been a third quarter for us right and we've been think this was a fantastic third quarter I thought with between poor zingas and Brown and Derek why I mean by themselves they had 36 point I think from that bus ride like you said that they were really focused they understood that they drop one last night and you can't allow that to happen and you can see that focus and I think Jalen has been doing a fantastic job whether it's the first quarter the fourth quarter the third whatever quarter it is and he's been saying it whatever the team needs whenever it is I need to do that because I'm a basketball player I think he's coming into his own right now and he is balling right now best basketball of his career right now yeah the Celtics had a bounce back in this one drew we also have to teach you the Stevie Wonder version of Happy Birthday because I can have something that you don't know the regular version then you got to sing the Stevie Wonder version on the back end okay I'm getting blasted on social media I'm getting blasted on the post game show I know that I didn't know that that's a better version I'm just going to go to the plane and eat my candy loudly and then scowl's gonna be in the back there I'm going to the play
