The one thing we can't do is come out flat in the 3rd and give life to the Pacers. They won't just go away. Have to put them away.

IMO, sit him down until he's healed.
Play Peterson.

No more buzzer-beaters from Pritchard? Trade his washed-up ass.

I honestly like the made up things you have said recently, it feels like you’ve come into my world. Always see them better than they are, that way when they do something great, you can say you always knew they had it in them. :lol:

There's still 4 months to make it right.

Back injuries are tough.

If we can avoid our normal 3rd Quarter let down?I expect to see a lot of Peterson and jordan tonight..

Back Spasms. Yeah.
Why is he even playing? -- He's just gonna make it linger on.

Play Peterson.

He’s so important because he spells JT and JB. They trust him, IMo more than PP because of his size. Joe has to make a decision soon with Peterson because he needs to build that trust in games not practice.

JT 7 straight double-double.

First since Bird did it in 1990, according to Drew.

Maine is doing terrible. Down as much as Boston is Up.

Absolutely. And Peterson can Handle the Ball.
He ran Point for a stretch in Maine last Season.

I think they found a gem in Peterson. He gets knocked for his giraffe neck

but the kid can play. He was the guy I wanted to make the team after last season. I guarantee Stevens would be playing him if he was coaching still.

I can't stress enough how great having Horford is, esp with KP out/struggling. There's a considerable dropoff between him and Q/K, in savvy and style of play.

JD is terrible, I'm sorry. His super slo mo play is extremely annoying because that will only work in the G League.

Don’t like jb’s last 3 or so shots.

Celtics free throw defense is the worst. 49 straight opponent FTs before that miss.
