Right now Trey Murphy has a bigger bag than Tatum and showing more moves. All Tatum does is brick threes and barely hitting iron in his midrange fade ways. Now he’s starting to split free throws in the clutch. Tatum on a ugly inefficient stretch right now

Springer and Walsh should play in games like these instead of running the starters into the ground. Mazzulla is a moron.

Did anybody think he’d make that? Thought it 200% was hitting the backboard

Beautiful possessions from both JT and JB.

Shouldn’t have got this close but happy to see the clutch execution in a close game.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Second game winner for JT this season.

A reminder that doubting JT will bite you in the ass.

Lesson I learned a long time ago.

At least we won
JT and JB in the clutch, KP with the defense
Defense is again bad
Not enough Springer and Walsh minutes
Hauser was also good
