That first possession is Jrue's fault. Watch him and you can see the breakdown unfold before it even begins.
LeVert passes to Garland in the corner, and Garland drives to the hoop with White on him. Porzingis is in the paint for the double, making a shot attempt by Garland unlikely. Allen, at that point, is a potential option to dump to, but Porzingis is right there, and is a capable enough defender to contest if Garland chooses to give the ball to Allen.
Meanwhile, Jrue is in no man's land with Jaylen, completely ignoring the guy who's already scored 9 points in the corner, including two threes. Based on the angles and traffic, Garland is unlikely to find LeVert, but Dean Wade is wide open. Easy pass and decision to shoot, and Jrue is nowhere near Wade as he hits his third triple of the quarter. You can see about three seconds into this clip when he realizes that his man is like 10 feet away while he's been ball-watching the whole possession. A huge misstep by an otherwise great defender.
The second possession is Jaylen's fault. Garland and Wade played a two-man game with Jaylen and Porzingis. Garland hands off to Wade, who's about 7 feet behind him, with both guys guarding the perimeter and nowhere near Wade. Brown slips between Garland and Porzingis as Wade is setting his feet, essentially setting a soft screen and giving Porzingis not nearly enough room to contest a pull-up three from a guy who just hit a wide-open three.
And that's exactly what Wade does here with the space he's given. You can see how much space he has once he sets his feet; Brown is chasing Garland while at the same time denying Porzingis the ability to switch onto Wade. Smart shot by the guy with the hot hand and poor defensive rotation by Jaylen. He probably should not have followed Garland and instead, let Porzingis stay on Garland while he guards Wade, who either could have taken the shot anyway, or (IMO most likely) would swing it to LeVert near the corner.
This is the shit that’ll fuck the Celtics come playoff time, they’ve been just throwing up 3s with hardly any ball movement for a good 5 minutes. Watching the bucks do that for the last 4 seasons I can say it doesn’t work.

Random role player not missing threes against Boston, a tale as old as time

Jason got the sense to stay his ass sat down and not make this about him
