30 a game is just becoming effortless for Jaylen. It seemed like Pritchard was scoring everything for a while there, but JB still ends up the top scorer tonight. What a scoring machine.

Jaylen's shot selection and efficiency is off the charts this season, as well as his defence.

To quote Adam Silver "Bill Russell would be so proud"

Is officially a Celtics legend and his number is going to be raised to the storied rafters one day !

1 shy. I don’t see why he didn’t try to get it on that last possession if they were gonna keep him in there that long.

Fun game
A lot of players played good - JB, PP, Hauser, Garza, Roco
Not a good showing by Walsh and Hugo and no Mynot at all

VC goes to JB, CP to Hauser - took the life out of IND with his shooting

Garza is outplaying Queta right now and playing more minutes. Queta should learn how to set picks better and play with more energy

I rechecked the box score and I guess I was wrong, Amari Williams and Max Shulga are not listed on the box score. Probable they are not with the team, I dont know why I thought they were there... lol, I was yelling at the TV for "AMARI TIME" with 3 mins left, lol
