Heat stun Celtics in Game 2, Lakers host Nuggets, Nick’s updated NFL Mock Draft | FIRST THINGS FIRST

live from New York it's the show that is

quite fond of Drake May been watching

some Drake May are out this is the

biggest day since the Super Bowl

wow two and a half NBA playoff games

Cavs magic and then the N NFL

draft yeah but that was one event and

everything going on it's like a seven

hour Sports Extravaganza great day 12

hours if you start right now today oh

good take the heat pulling off the upset

in Boston MI comes in goes 23 for 43

from three wins by 10 to even the series

now Jimmy posted a confusing Meme here

feeling cute I might delete this later

don't let us get one which is what

Jaylen Brown said last year in ODed to

what Kevin malar said 20 years ago yeah

when the Red Sox were up on the or red

were down 03 so now and now all of a

sudden Jimmy's in jaylen's Jersey it's a

little bit of

it wasn't that confusing it was very

conf I me it was pretty why was Jimmy in

J because that's because that was a

picture of Jaylen Brown who the quote

was from and that he took that

screenshot and had his people put his

face on it is not that confusing it felt

like he did it himself the internet just

confuses you after thing that was clear

he watches the show he's feel our show

cute feeling cute that's a different

meme guys let's just get to the show brw

is your faith in the Celtics

shaken no because you guys know I have

been lukewarm on the Celtics all year

yeah and now I think they'll win the

East and I still feel that way they were

my pick but it's about a championship

for them they've won the East before

they've been to the Conference Finals

before they got to win a championship

and I've said it look we think Denver's

winning this series now against the

Lakers I think the lak if the Lakers

could win that series I think they could

beat Boston I think whoever comes out of

the West

assuming it's Denver it won't be the

Lakers but if the like I think there are

teams in the west that could beat I

think Minnesota would beat Boston I

think if they show the the mental

toughness and maturity to get out of the

West yeah I mean that's the thing I

don't look at Boston as your typical 64

win team no I I'm like they are lucky

the Eastern Conference is in shambles

all right that's it now they're a good

team don't get me wrong but no my faith

wasn't shaken it's where it is all right

and they look last night what happened

was Miami and this is what Miami does

they combine toughness they're the

tougher team both mentally and

physically with three-point three-point

Marksmanship and that's what they did

and I know jaylen's like hey they were

hot what do you do you know what though

they get hot a lot against Boston that's

weird in four of their last nine playoff

games against each other they've hit 50%

of their threes that's odd like it could

happen again I mean the numbers tell us

it will happen again in this series and

so that's the thing and I wish I had

thought of this before I would have told

Kett you know what the Celtics are oh no

they some breakdowns oh no they a

finesse under Joe Missoula they're

finesse oh see this is what I was

waiting for because you're putting a lot

of this on the coach yeah look they

weren't a finesse team under eme udoka

no they were tough they were hard NOS

they just ran into an experienced Golden

State team

that if they don't get out of the East

this is on Missoula and look porzingis

was they guard him with Caleb Martin

yeah porzingis couldn't get any shots in

the paint for the most part that's on

him but again he's a finesse player of

course I so like of course you have to

lose some Faith this was by a point

spread standpoint the biggest upset in

the NBA playoffs since the 2019

Pat Bev Lou Williams Clippers beat the

Warriors in that game that then LED

Kevin Durant to say I'm Kevin Durant do

you know who I am I'm Kevin Durant so

it's the biggest upset in the playoffs

in five years and it's a it's a terrible

loss that also Missoula and jayen brown

misdiagnosed after when they say oh they

were hitting tough shots we had good

Closeouts by the tracking data 20 three

of those 43 three-point attempts were

classified as wide open so no one within

5T so yes to make 23 of they obviously

all 23 were the makes but what I'm

saying is more than half of the

three-point attempts were wide open and

so yes it was a hot shooting night but

it wasn't because of nothing Boston did

and I you are I I agree with you brew

that there for Boston anything short of

a championship this year is going to be

disappointment he he doesn't get fired

if they get to the finals correct but

and I would even say anything getting to

the finals and losing to Denver I don't

even know if people will look at that as

anything other than that Denver is the

team right now that's right but losses

like this do make me question if they're

going to be playing in the finals

because I don't think they're going to

lose to Miami in the series and I don't

think they're going to lose to Cleveland

in the next series but in those

Conference Finals you will either be

playing in opinion with respect to the

Pacers a Milwaukee team that will have

Giannis back a a Philly team that at

that point will have embiid must be

healthier and they will be rolling or a

Knicks team that is

the like Miami but without its best

player injured and a loss like last

night Wilds makes me feel like man oh

man are the Celtics lucky that Jimmy

Butler got hurt like that and and that

would have been and the second straight

year that an eight seed Miami against a

one seed Boston either gave him trouble

or you know beat him or I guess Boston

was in the one last year pardon me but

an eight seed Miami beat him in the in

the Boston was the two last year so like

that's a awful loss I don't know that it

takes away I agree with you they're

going to win the series but they lost

homec court advantage too like there are

tangible and practical thing losses that

they had last night too not just kind of

psychological okay so here are the uh

deeper dig on the numbers Brew on heat

from three and how hot they were third

highest uh percentage on 40 attempts or

more in playoff history so we all know

this here's the weird thing Celtics

great at home during the regular season

and now we're at two playoff uh oh

excuse me last three years they're 12

and 13 at home a lot of these are are

weird losses a lot of them are heat

losses what do you make of this this

point losses is crazy if you look at

that number over three years in 100 that

133 games they have six double digit

losses and then in 3 years in 25 playoff

games six double- digigit losses that's

crazy what you look I've got to look at

my best players particularly the guys

who have the ball in their hands at the

end of the game Jaylen Brown and Jason

Tatum now you guys know I love Jason

Tatum I was pushing for him to be in

club Superstar before he was in it and

he is a superstar but he has not been

clutched and in the playoffs obviously

you had some blowout losses but in the

playoff off S the games are generally

going to be close and so what is your

execution like and what are your two

main guys like do they have ice in their

veins or not and they can have a

tendency too to be too much ISO

isolation basketball and that's an issue

too I'm going to bring up two other

quick points one is the big difference

between this year's Celtics and last

year's Celtics are the player

Acquisitions right Drew holiday is one

of my favorite players post Championship

he obviously had a rough couple

postseasons will'll see this one Chris

STS has no postseason resume whatsoever

he has one really good playoff game in

his career he had only played in a you

know 10 playoff games prior to this

series and so leaning on him a ton could

be problematic we'll see they he's a

critical part of there too 100% but that

and but he's to playoff unknown but the

last point I'll make is this everything

and this is one of the things I love

about sports and I love about the NBA

Playoffs everything has a cost so we are

going to see over the next two months

guys I'm not even necessarily talking

about stars but a fourth guy or a fifth

guy a guy like Grayson Allen for Phoenix

oh he turned his ankle he's out a week

he's out when you as I guess the common

Parliament now was play with your food

when you allow these series to extend

things can happen true and then it's

less of a like oh you got unlucky you

dealt with an injur if somebody from

Boston gets dinged in a game six against

Miami that's this game's fault if that

you know what I mean and if you're

trying to win a champion ship all of

that stuff has to matter this is going

to be a tough Series yeah I mean I think

at this point it's going to go six do

you think Boston's going to win the next

three you think five you think they're

going to win both in Miami I don't think

just be like the Denver series split

they split at home and it's like all

right let's go and take care of business

yeah I four is better than Boston okay I

know but on paper 4-1 the spoler gets

one that's what he does

okay I mean listen this here's the deal

the and I I apologize because I don't

want to be unfair but the Lakers if you

watch them night in night out they're

obviously not a well coach team and I

feel that I think it's tangible I think

you can see it and I think that we have

no problem saying we in the series we

just watched or we just talked about

that is a coaching mismatch that is Eric

spola Joe moula and Joe moula is in his

second years's ahead coach who got to a

Conference finals last year is we are

saying potentially coaching for his job

in this postseason but because I feel

like in the media at large there's a

little bit of a calvinball when it comes

to what we are and aren't allowed to

criticize when it comes to LeBron James

coaches right it's like okay you can't

criticize Frank vogle because he won a

championship so that's a weird thing

right because won a championship in my

opinion because of LeBron's greatness so

now in ad so now he's uncriticizable but

now he's in Phoenix and he's going to

get fired here in about 10 days and

everyone's fine with it the and so I

think I don't get I'm I'm trying to be

fresh but I don't understand what you're

so vogle got criticized that's the thing

LeBron's coaches B criticized correct

and then and then I think when it comes

to when we have talked about Frank vogle

on this show it has been oh what you

wanted more from Frank vogle what do you

want he w a championship wanted him to

get his get exactly that's your take

that's your take I don't think he was

very good I don't think he was good in

Orlando I don't think he was good in Los

Angeles they won a championship despite

I don't think he's done a good job in

Phoenix who's great in Indiana first

stop I don't think Darin Ham's done a

good job I don't think anyone can point

to anything that he's done a good job

now would that change this series I

don't know I know the last game

literally was as close as it possibly

could have been and we think Mike

Malone's an excellent coach so do I

think the Lakers are frustrated yes do I

think that they are right now at a

massive coaching deficit similar to what

we're dealing with in Miami Boston I do

do I think people are hesitant to that

because they think it's like protecting

LeBron yeah that's what I think he's

getting criticized yeah ham is on the

hot seat so you on the hot I'm not

saying he should be but he's being

scapegoated so but is it a scapegoat if

you if you're the problem was he a bad

coach when they won in season tournament

was he a bad coach when they were up 20

this is my point do you see what I'm now

what well yeah but I I got confused

about the Vogal stuff because you're

saying Vogal was a mediocre coach but

LeBron and ad's greatness were able to

overcome it now Darin Ham's a mediocre

Co coach but might be worse might be

worse and they're not able to to over

com yeah they're older and a harder

opponent LeBron is an awesome obviously

player when he wins it's LeBron's credit

when he

doesn't his teammates and his coaches

get blank we have seen that time and

time again except I guess every stop so

but they but that's spola was being

criticized Miami say so so I so I

disagree with that spola LeBron his

first year there LeBron and Wade went to

Riley and complained about spola and

then Riley said no and now spola is

universally recognized as as a great

coach but he wasn't then in the moment

like I think by the end he wasn't spoler

wasn't scapegoated for how them losing

the fourth finals no he wasn't no I'm

talking about the first year they they

woned sper was getting criticized was he

not a good now obviously he's a better

Coach better coach now but my my point

is this all right Michael Mone is a

great coach he he's up there with spos I

agree so they do have a coaching

Advantage yes but I want to address

Anthony Davis oh wow what he said we

didn't know what we were doing okay out

there at

times that is making an excuse that is

passing the buck that is look looking

for a scapegoat and that is not the

mentality that's going to get you back

in this series yeah right blaming the

refs yes right look in the mirror cuz

Anthony I know what you were doing

nothing in the fourth quarter you were

doing nothing you played 10 minutes 9

Minutes 55 seconds to be exact you took

one shot did he take one shot you got

one rebound you had zero points but

that's Darin H fault you have the clout

my man to say give me the ball I've been

killing these dudes for two quarters

give me the ball you didn't do that you

know what happened Aaron

Gordon muscled you up we know you don't

like physical play Aaron Gordon muscled

you up and you were looking for Darin or

Phil handy or somebody to give you some

advice what can you what can I do with

what the coaches are for you know what

okay if they didn't tell you I'mma tell

you okay well you wor with Anthony I'mma

tell you big boy him okay what does

Chris mean by Big Boy him the same thing

ni yish did to you okay that's when it

was time in the fourth quarter for a

bucket he backed you down and put a

bucket over you while being filed if I'm

not mistaken that's what you need to do

to a Gordon cuz he's smaller than you is

that enough is that somebody telling you

what to do okay brw can I tell you

something is someone who's watched 70

Lakers games this year I wish you were

the coach and so that I there is like

you know what you've sold me on and so I

so but Wilds now maybe I didn't explain

it properly but I think brw's response

to me was kind of the frustration part

it's like if they whenever they succeed

it can't if if it it is used as evidence

there that that's a good coach but by

that same logic then when they fail it

has to then that evidence it's a bad

coach or can we evaluate it and look at

it just like we are with Missoula versus

bolra and we think that is a big deficit

just like moua resume right now looks

great but you are saying is on the hot

seat you know why we think it's with

Missoula it's not cuz cuz the analytics

Kings out there love Missoula I mean you

you listen to them oh my gosh this team

is historically great they're awesome

right you know why we look at Joe at

least me Joe Mulan say you should be on

the hot seat cuz you were in the finals

the year before you got there and now

we're going backwards yes and the Lakers

I I just that was Champion you know how

I judge coaches results I'm not going to

sit here and tell an NBA coach they

don't know what they doing cuz they know

the EX better than me I'm going I'm

judging you by results okay and I think

the Lakers have underachieved love it I

think the Lakers have underachieve this

year they might be the second best team

in the league they just playing the

first best team okay maybe so and I

think in the margins I think that and we

didn't talk about it the day after

because I knew the reaction would be

there' be an allergic reaction to it but

I think the biggest in game two the

biggest difference between the two teams

was the coaches in a game that came down

to the final moment that's what about

when they were up 20 was I mean serious

was ham doing a bad job at that no what

I am saying is no I'm just asking no but

when they were when they were tearing

away at the lead when they were had

their fourth quarter runs when you're

going home with timeouts in your pocket

yes that is part of coaching can LeBron

can LeBron say you know what no we're

not running that we're ad let's do that

you're right he has the cl to do that of

course I agree with that that yes LeBron

could you overrule him there are things

that one can do but that is then

overcoming your own coaching right if

you have to then be like God dog it I

got to do this too that's overcoming now

we've seen you're right LeBron did you

over David blat famously but that was

another one I'll use that as in table

David it's like what do you want from

David BL got to the finals you have the

best record and the answer was he wasn't

a good coach in the NBA I think he was a

good coach I mean and to me there's

proof in that and that he's never come

back like I just I don't think it's a

black was even he was a different I

think different than he had no we have a

special alarm that I'm you were totally

unaware of it I'm somewhat aware of it

well we were supposed to just do

basketball here however on Monday we had

mock draft 4.0 breaking news we had the

official mock draft

4.0 however I have gotten Furious Intel

from Las Vegas and you guys know who it

is but don't reveal my most trusted NFL

Source okay oh that has made me flip one

top five pick so that was mock draft 4.0

that I promised was going to be the most

accurate in the

media we have one adjustment right under

under the wire show The Adjustment Jaden

2 4.1 for the okay well you know what

talk to the graphics department but

that's fine so everything else Remains

the Same 1 through 32 but now Jaden has

gone from even money to minus a th000 to

be the second overall pick there is an

element of Cliff Kingsbury coached

Patrick Mahomes he coached Caleb

Williams he's the offensive coordinator

is he going to have a say and a lot of

the speculation about what the Patriots

are aren't going to do is centered

around Drake May being available at 3 so

for all those reasons this is the

adjustment to mock draft 4.0 W you've

been all in on Jaden but I feel like

part of that was because you didn't even

get into Drake May because you were

certain he was fall in line now like and

just to speak your language what size

collar is Drake May wear in there yeah

oh yeah that looks like a 19 and a half

dude what and unlike Jen Daniels who I

think is a millennial Drake May is a

Zoomer generation a young guy

goodness well first of all Nick yeah I

could have told you this okay I I've

been saying Washington's got to take

Jaylen Daniels Jaden Daniels Jaden

Daniels he's I I like him better than

Drake man and M look he doesn't want to

go there we've seen all that right but

he hasn't said I'm not playing for no

he's just I'm fine with a player having

their preferences he hasn't been drafted

yet but once he gets there I think he'll

you know he'll be OD to go there if

you're like really trying to court

Someone Like You know what

group also sometimes you're like I don't

want to go to this restaurant and then

people tell you the restaurant

alternative and you're like okay I'll go

to the first one so he was like I don't

want to go to Washington they're like

then you're going to New England he's

like it's Washington DC sign me up

there's zero chance happen there's zero

chance you want to go to Washington

besides and not go to the team of the

century no I'm not sure look who's got

the best receiver of the yeah best two

mclen is the draft the best running back

best running back you're right no

Washington you're in a better position

to succeed The Proven coach Dan Quinn I

mean like I'm just what he's not more

proven than uh J okay Dan Quinn yeah go

to work with Dan Quinn great guy oh I

will and Cliff King who I think will be

a better OC than H you love going to

Super Bowls he's in a good situation
