We are making him better than what he is because he has 4 players to pick on. And if Embiid is left 1vs1 inside then it’s open season for the Celtics.

Don’t even get me started on defence last 2 games, he’s made Harden turn into Bum Simmons lol

These scrubs that can't defend or score on anyone need to atleast come up with some loose balls.

We’ve found way to punish them at the block if they switch a smaller defender on Biid

Good quarter. Celtics living and (thankfully) dying by 3s for now. Joel playing like an MVP and imposing his will. Let's keep this intensity and pull away. Don't let them get any closer.

Stop me if you've heard this one before, but I can't wait until we no longer have to deal with Tobias Harris anymore.

I like Maxey’s aggressiveness. He’s doing the other things better also.

Even if he doesn't hit them, Boston is forced to guard him because he's actually a good shooter, so he provides spacing even when missing.

Tucker is not gonna get guarded until he makes 2 or 3 on a row

Tucker only takes the corner 3s....which makes him a lot easier to guard...Niang will shoot from anywhere.

Derrick White was godawful in the playoff last year and looks amazing against us.

Marcus Smart is a career offensive scrub and looks amazing against us.

Exactly, the Celtics don’t care about Tucker at all. His rep is so overrated he’s hasnt stopped anyone.

Then people praise him for hustling and getting rebounds but the reality is if you actually put a sizeable player in his position then they would get double the amount lol.

Niang actually gives you a threat outside that has to be guarded then it’s 4vs4 offence with one spacer instead of 4vs5 ala classic Bum Simmons special.

When did Marcus Smart turned into Steph Curry?
