[Highlight] Baylor Scheierman on Luka Garza’s game winner: “I was like ‘YEEET!’ He just threw that thing up there.”
So it seems that they drew up a play for Garza for a quick 3 to get the 2 for 1, but it got blew up. Garza still got the pass but was smothered and he just said “screw it” and chucked up a shot anyway.
It was such a ridiculous shot attempt to see before he made it, but Garza has been a sniper this year shooting 43% from 3, so I guess he has some confidence in his shot.
Poor man’s Cooper Flagg
Elevated Joe Ingles
My high-end comp that would be very hard for him to reach is White Khris Middleton.
Secondary creator than can handle the ball a little, gets to his spot, hell of a shooter, mediocre athletism, decent but not incredible defense.
Obviously that’s if he reaches his ceiling. But I imagine if he reaches his peak it they will be similar players.
Elite passer.
If your talking about Scheierman, he’s an elite flashy passer, but I wouldn’t say he’s close to an elite passer yet. He has flashes with really good passes, but he’s more of a connective passer than a guy who can facilitate an offense and manipulate defenders to get teammates open. I think he could grow more and show that, but right now he generally makes the easy passes and the right passes. I haven’t really seen elite pinpoint passing like you’d see with Tatum.
And if you mean Middleton. I think he was a good passer that could definitely make the defense pay for sending too much help and was always a quick decision maker, but I never looked at him as an elite playmaker, definitely quite a bit above average though.
I meant Scheierman. Elite circus passer, but still elite, which is fun…
Gen Zingles
That’s Evil Cooper Flagg to you.
I’m going to keep using this moniker until either it sticks or I get banned from this sub
Coopoor Flagg
Damn, mad disrespectful lol.
Copper Flagg?
The fact that this game had so much influence over playoff matchups and how it all went down, from Baylor Baggins to the better Luka to the better Harper to Desmond Bane and this shot
What I’m trying to say is that this was pure comedy
Yeah I saw someone say in the post game thread this wasn’t the best or most important win for the Celtics this year, but it was the funniest
Baylor Uso
Skrrrrt that
Whoever helps all of these Celtics Bros with their shooting needs to be more famous.
