No team can beat this team in a 7 game series. The back to back documentary is gonna be great in 2036 :D

It's just about seeing the big picture.

I think some of the Celtic fans are just not seeing what Joe and the Celtics are seeing.

The Cs are clearly playing the long game.


JT might not sit out the rest of the game so he might play 44 minutes tonight after nearly playing 40 minutes against the pelicans. These are awful teams the Celtics are in a big fight against and a lot has to do with the start of games

True.

But the supporting cast is just not very good this season.

That's why JT is needed more this season.

Just **** drive to the hoop, get easy baskets and then the threes start falling. That should be the approach every game

Likewise, let's hold the "fire Joe" chants until the game's over.

Not a coincidence Boston hasn't used the double lineup at all in this run... Hauser who sometimes doesn't even play that much has helped create all the spacing and Tatum has just gone off with that extra space..
