Rico getting some extended burn tonight. He looks pretty good out there.

I think that Scheierman can play the 2nd ballhandler.
Maybe playing with White and Pritchard can get him into that?

White is as tough as old cars, I would call my brothers to jump someone, but he just gets wiped up and goes back out there

Minott yet to get in.

Defense much better in the 2nd quarter

No Minott? Even with Walsh in Foul Trouble.
Hugo coming up the Depth Chart.

Did he fly home for Christmas?

Excellent decision by JB not to settle for the 3.

I believe the difference from last season to this season is the Cs are not settling for 3s.

Maybe that's because of the personnel, but this season you really can't say the Cs keep jacking up 3s.

I feel like we have been sleeping on rico this season and he’s been playing just about every game, for a reason.

Perfect area P

Don’t know, but I doubt it. He’s 19, could be missing it though.

Jay Huff can't defend a chair.

Rebounding the basketball and doing a really nice job on the defensive end. Just made a hustle play too.

Baylor hanging around the basket more and getting those defense boards from his position. Nice.

Fierce1 · Post #78 » by **Fierce1** » Sat Dec 27, 2025 1:07 am

Celtics have been great on offense and defense this season.
The rebounding has also improved the last few games.
Guess this is the reason why they have the #3 seed.

Yeah. Baylor is a versatile young Man. Can bring the ball up. Bigger body.
He needs to improve his 3pt shot. Wasn't he supposed to be close to a 40% 3pt'er?
