Joe is the coach that went 18-0 at home to start the season.

This can’t be said enough, DWhite and Jrue came up big when it mattered the most in the 4th

One of the worst losses in the season turned into one of the best wins of the season.

One of my favorite Jaylen games ever. The boards, the drives, the free throws, the fight. Loved it.

White and Jrue don't get a lot of attention because they're not as loud and demonstrative as Marcus Smart.

But both guards really came up big in crunch time.

C's passed up a lot of 'just okay' shots that they normally shoot. Great decision making under high pressure.

Definitely no interest in seeing these Wolves in the finals. No weak links in that rotation.

Man I see a lot of teams play big games but the Celtics crowd is easily the best in the league. You would think this was a huge playoff game out there with how crazy they were going

Another game where JT played with a nasty edge - especially down the stretch. It seems to focus him. He makes better reads and decisions when he's agitated.

Easily.

I was watching a Suns game the other day and it almost could have passed for a Covid game

Luke Walton had the best start of a season in the history of professional sports 28-0. Was it him or talent...who knows.

The teams with the two best records in the league took both games in their season series to OT, with the home team winning in each case.

Jaylen gets the VC, with JT close 2nd. That 13/13 free throws was beyond spectacular. Kept us in the game with his aggressive drives. Loved Jt when he’s playing angry. Probably pissed off he missed that free throw and that potential winning shot to end regulation. Anyways, good overall win. I think joe needs to take another look at his bench. Hauser is just playing horrible. I think some of those bench guys wouldn’t do worse than hauser right now.
