I bet you're on the -- -- blood shortly Cedric Maxwell house today -- overload here as well as time for our weekly chat go with the president of basketball operations. Of the Boston Celtics Danny Ainge joins -- lab before my hello mr. range. And aren't created her right. And I don't want to get viewfinder anything like that and of Phil Jackson is already commented on the officiating doc made some comments after the game last night. And not sit here and we've been talking about it a little bit the first couple of hours that it's going one way or the other. But as a player. If this inconsistency. With the officiating out on the floor do you have difficulty. Trying to get into your rhythm into your game. I I think. You know each game is an adjustment. Players like you just. How the game being played. All. -- or control. -- a lot of players. Are African. A -- or others. But it figured out. Danny one of the things we look at and you you and I -- many sounds of war. About wide open jump shots. And how are you confident sometimes is is big is for upper and in on the next day it's like he can't put it in the ocean explained -- us how. Ray Allen can knock down all those trays one night ending get her -- is saying come on looks and missed all thirteen the next night. -- -- Like major dispute. To set. I think that brick -- I think. -- shot at them. Eight even though it was spectacular. But the shot he dated back I think they make view it. It's there as well. -- work that way too. Gained three yesterday. At reader for workshops shot -- -- -- -- rate in. I would tell you don't Arco. Well. I think I think what -- -- yet. I think take -- should take. A bit also. Which it there. A couple of baskets -- penetration -- shopped. At. You -- Euro three point take an erotic actually a line. We talk about this earlier -- did not seem to look like he was getting. -- -- -- You're right now I'm wrong here I thought he was getting the looks skinny but I thought he was much slower with the release and obviously the release point didn't seem aside. Could that run our test when he got they -- -- -- -- our test earlier -- could have been affected that it affected his legs and he didn't get that same at bats and left. Yet I think the market. Hurt in the game I think -- the art test. There ought. And inspire all -- certainly. Political by the -- now so. But rush yeah a few opened up. But you -- and the epic eight or nine were pretty good shot. And I would -- -- view. Ask her and we seeing. And but rush. But a chance all or a lot. Of -- a lot. -- air. What the best options. -- -- -- what makes this team -- so many guys can hurt you you know we've done at the Big Three look at Ron W that the game won't Ray Allen out. -- game -- KG in foul trouble Paul Pierce game three. But we're -- -- -- you still haven't seen the you know the best of the Boston Celtics how much you give that the lakers credit for actually taken them out you know you game right now or is it just. No Celtics getting in that foul trouble getting moderate. I think accommodation. At the lakers are very good at. Other excuse they're all in apart fell to start smaller. Were so well we're wasting. Well. And do silly things and she. -- key player -- it. You gotta be user. Now why. Worker drop -- out of position. Which is caught -- a re it. I work does not in court for whatever reason -- Worked up like the 16 game road. And Orlando. And we're gonna win this series. We have to get it. What that it won at things that -- in the omelet commitment and some what concerning me is. The end of to have in the end of the quarter. Play. Selection because what we've seen in a lot of they have so in the -- all others. Rondo is an isolated situation they're trying to said the pick formed its other -- then -- isolate it won't want. And malice at the rod though to get the shy about it this more of a jump shot when he's at his most dangerous. He is taken the ball was a hole when he is forced to take a long jump shot isn't that plane into what the deacons once of the duke. Well oh we we have not been a few words. Here. And but. Oh what the biggest disasters happen. -- in -- kick receipt of him not. Long recount. -- shot. Other. Because this shot where. So it's a double and most don't score entry. Into the quarters you'd want that last shot. We last shot. At eight we are all alternately we expect restart. Almost every week -- Six -- And that's really Chelsea rarely get a rate shot that area in -- screen rolls up. And and typical so. You know. I think that we can do better. It. Danny US should know the questions here and this is I know you had this gives you the step the last time. And one of late in particular the 5050 ball is Lewis tell me mean you Gaza talked about before. One played that Kobe Bryant was AB get the rebound that -- it was in the first half. You give back in the Bowman was about the while about some lake was almost lost that position how did you guys do or the 5050 ball. You don't like it netstat so it must not use these. You know that are. -- or one where or Europe lakers get it but I think that it was so most of them are well -- what. What would happen. Look like our guys. Can. Happen -- all app. Our guys where -- recipe. Running try to -- it read go go which we do. And -- -- lost control out. -- say. And I'd still. On the perk already out at all. And re edit PG Duckett. The other hand but -- -- work OP and then you know -- one where they were like -- Or all remembered and our job to run. Out so we got one of those back the other. Or some. This seems to be a pattern here and it seems to have happen all three games with the Celtics have not playing through you. You make a great defense and stop guys worked their ass off for the entire 44 seconds or close to it you make the defense and stop. Ball is -- -- much is talking about the rebound but it could -- slapped around or whatever notable always seems to end up -- the lakers fans how much of that. Is concentration how much of that is feeling good about what you did defensively and in -- pounding your chest or how does that happen this softened. So for a three games. Well I think it's happened to -- I think what we want -- we get a better job secured all. Last night that. That works as a lot. You know one where alters that -- opposition. In the box shot out. -- with the way they've reached over the top here. About fifteen -- at a opt out. Way but all around that was the actions that everything right -- all. You're owed by. We got a in this series if we don't like it now. Like we in six games where. We in the that we all recognize. Dale want to ask you how you feel about that the the instant replay -- two minutes to go in the game to me almost seemed you know -- could happen in the 45 minute of the game that can be. Just as important as isn't the last two minutes. You know I ought to call her words. Out by the lakers are and they and they gave the -- lakers yeah. I was question that we couldn't read plate though. -- at at the game out what it's a culture which is where Cox -- now. And beginning. Really all. You can't replace now it the way. They receive from the point or three -- And you can replay. If -- hit the ball down in the last. But saw I think it was re -- plays in the last minutes. It is so good though the call. And it would have been certainly Buick you make the call. And you can. There are a typical that but you're right about the course the popular vote but look like and later. Rebounding has been a huge factor obviously in the two games you've lost in the game that that you want length. Has been the word of the week both in Los Angeles and in Boston are you concerned. In that. When you get down in the hole it seems like they have just got that length on it and guys like. Big baby may uses you know we strengthen his body and -- might do the same. But they still can't get up in the stratosphere. And get those loose balls up there's not a concern right now. Well you know what that that's an advantage that they out we stand. Like we -- able to. I think we. I think that's an advantage of there's but I don't think it's so much we can over Carl Everett -- well that's foreigners. Damn one that things see this team doing in the way -- or maybe not doing is securing those rebounds. And maybe to happen -- a little bit too much or their defense civilian because we've seen that if you secured the rebound. You guys are able to get out and run because they're saying maybe three and a half -- towards a glass if you give the clean rebound you're gonna have numbers going the other way. I've seen stretches as. You hear it the you know yeah that's the size that up. It stop penetration secure of the ball I think this series is that they're all. Well we had all her hands should have had all that come loosen it up with that so. We gotta do a better job -- -- finishing up. You cannot dedicate use when you words she like to use when you don't get the rebound like that. -- As is always that's aggregate as were those four letter -- gonna review. And a look at the Mormon curse -- -- -- I I -- stay away from those. -- is there any concern with. They one day in between the games a lot is the -- that do you have an older team. Even doc talked about Ray Allen on the court a turnaround in last night's game. Now Sunday between Thursday and Sunday you're gonna get an extra day but is a concern -- that you've got the one day in court turn around again -- may be a problem for them. -- Bynum apparently tweaking his knee again last W concerned about your team record -- I'm not you know we went back to back courses. That should be doctor Kaiser. Our -- healthy step up. Their bad guys that should not be back. -- Danny we'll talk to you was next week we'll see you tomorrow night. -- Heart related to any president of the Boston Celtics.
