ROZ!!! Both Terry and Marcus have been so good today offensively. Kyrie is playing a really smart game like he did against Cleveland not forcing anything but trusting his teammates.

Terry Rozier this year is shooting over 40% from 3 from catch and shoot situation.

For those that think he "doesn't do anything well". He's elite as a 3 point threat in an off guard role.

And some said Kyrie can't lead a team.

Horford just looks a little tight, probably has a knot.

Also, Kyrie's playmaking has been sensational. He's been the most impact player this game without even shooting


Horford probably gets leg cramps too due to the freezing cold outside. It can make things tighten up more. And he is technically ancient compared to the other Celtics.

I gotta say, after sitting through 9 years of Doc Rivers not giving a **** about offensive boards, it is so refreshing seeing the Celtics get so many 2nd chance points.

Nice to see Kyrie so engaged on the defensive end the past few games, again.

Man Kyrie is loving the pass today, I really love his transition to a pure point guard / floor general, he has a great feel for the game

We still need another Center, preferably a Starter.
And Still need a Bench Scorer. Other than Morris (Who can't seem to play two games in a row.).

9 point lead feels like 15 in this game.
