Queta's got some real ability. As Mazzulla said a few days ago, "His time is gonna come."

He really does. He's been impactful in non-garbage time real NBA minutes.

PLEASUREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PRESSUREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

pRITCH has truly been a pleasure! Yeah I want Caruso, but not because Pritch was bad at any point this season, it's purely based on how much I think of Caruso as a player. I'm so proud of how pritch has stepped up in ways I didn't think he could, pg and D. Surprising but so enjoyable to witness! Been excellent!!

THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

Gave it to Pritchard, he’s been hooping these last few games!

PP vs Caruso.. Doesn't get.
Any better than this...

Caruso better overall, but PP is perfect for this Cs team.

Celtics have 12 more games, mostly against cupcake teams.

Cs should take advantage of the Hawks that are missing Trae, Bey, and Jalen J.

Pritchard is a starter in this league. Funny we don’t see any trade Pritchard posts anymore but y’all know who you are. Embrace the shame. Tossup on the cigar for me between Jaylen and PP. Flipped a coin and it landed PP

The trade deadline passing might have something to with that.

Good display by the team overall. With little to play for and against one of the worst teams, the Cs managed to keep it honest. We don't seem to play down to the competition anymore, which was a very frustrating bug.

Good job by the coaching staff rotating the starters and giving bench players minutes and confidence. I wish I saw more of Tillman today though, I'm not sure exactly how exactly he is supposed to get his looks.

This is crazy, because most of these teams became champions and this year's Cs are at the very top, yet I still think we're not favoured against Denver. I guess this talks in part about the changes in the game and the softization of the regular season.

Only 7 TO!!!
Great game by JB (looks like a man against kids) and PP (what a steal his contract is right now).

I thought Svi played good in his minutes, especially his hustle and quick hands on defense.

Yeah, despite them having a good game overall, let's not forget it was against a Pistons team with lot of injuries. I guess a part of the story of why so many threes were missed could be atributed to the absence of Tatum, who's gravity tends to be our main engine and get people open.

Who smokes the big cigar?
