Sam Hauser it’s a Duncan Robinson that’s not a bitch in big moments.

What has Sam shot from 3 in his last 6-7 games?
So pure
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Sam is also better defensively.

Would love the Bulls as a first round opponent.

We better win the **** title. This is an all time great regular season team. The only 2 regular season games worth being interested is the home game against the Thunder and to a lesser extent the road game against pelicans. Don’t really care about the road game in Milwaukee when there’s 4 games left and Joe is likely going to rest players for that game.

Was worried the ankle injury would derail the shooting. Nope. He's locked in.

We probably just clinched HCA in ECF!

As great as Tatum is, he can still get a lot better at handling double teams.

If Hauser can be a lethal shooter in the playoffs his gravity will be huge

That's why if the Cs win the chip this season, it's going to be for Banner 20 in 2026.

This will be the weakest this current group of Celtics will be.

They will be better next season and they will be gunning for 70 wins in 2025-26.

Pelicans will be without Ingram so not that challenging. But Zion has been balling lately.

Wish Knicks are whole when we play them. Mitch Rob could come back soon. Dunno about Randle and OG.

I have to admit, Kornet has really surprised me this season.

He's really gotten so much better since December.

Such a deep team. It’s almost a shame the rotation will have to shrink in the playoffs.

It may not.

Maybe in the finals it shrinks.
