Boston Celtics four-level failure in Game 4, Joe Mazzulla admits timeout mistake: Joe Mazzulla talked to the media on Tuesday and admitted that he should have called a timeout at the end of the game. Yes, he made a mistake, but he wasn't the only one. Marcus Smart and Jayson Tatum had big roles in the last play falling apart (Al Horford is excused but maybe he shouldn't be because everyone should have known better). Toss in the failure on James Harden and Jaylen Brown added a fourth level to the failure. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm discuss all that, look at all the ways the last play went wrong, and how the team has so far to go to reach their full potential.

Nolan Smith Would Add More Pop To Jacksonville Jaguars Pass Rush: The Jacksonville Jaguars say pass rush improvement is a priority, and their biggest need. Edge Nolan Smith, while a little undersized, has long arms, powerful and violent hands, and speed like no other (4.43 40 yd dash) which are all traits the Jags covet.
