[zoyathedestroya]

Bacon Tatum all the way.



When you tie Larry Bird's career-high at 19 years old, you're doing something right.

[Jammer]

Playing without Kemba Walker (strained oblique?) and apparently sitting Jabari Parker and Luke Kornet, the Celtics overcame a 32 point deficit to re-take the lead on a night they missed a lot of close in shots and had at least 4 atrocious foul calls where San Antonio got the whistle. Shooting 21-30 Free Throws in Regulation hurt, so on a 12 Turnover night, they made it hard. But the 25 foul calls looked more like 20 to me with 5 gifts to the Spurs. Definately a "D" grade for the refs tonight. Gotta give the game ball to Tatum despite rookie Aaron Nesmith having the second best game overall. This may have been the biggest comeback in Celtics history.

An alternative view:

Pts. + Rebounds + (0.5 x Assists) + Steals + (0.5 x Blocks) - Missed FGs - (0.5 x Missed Free Throws) - Turnovers - (0.5 x Fouls)

+52 Jayson Tatum (45 minutes) Monster Night, 60 points

+19 Aaron Nesmith (30 minutes) looked outstanding, played outstandingly too
+18 Robert Williams III (23 minutes) devastating in the time he's on the court
+16.5 Tristan Thompson (29 minutes)
+13 Marcus Smart (44 minutes)

+6.5 Grant Williams (9 minutes)

+4.5 Evan Fournier (21 minutes)
+3 Tremont Waters (7 minutes)
+1.5 Payton Pritchard (13 minutes)

0.5 Jaylen Brown (44 minutes) 5-24 FG, 4 TOs, wish he let some of the other guys have those 19 missed FG attempts

[akhan786]

Uh oh...goat candidate Tatum might be waking from his slumber

[SuperDeluxe]

Tatum of course.

Nesmith... Me likey.

[Tatumfor2]

Don't **** around. Tatum smokes it!!!!

[djFan71]

Man, what a half and OT! One of the first games I got to watch live in a while and the first half sucked.... but I think they made up for it. Tough call, but I'm gonna go Tatum for VC.

[playa-hater]

I plan on making a lot of posts tonight, after they release me from the hospital for the heart attack I just endured..

[The_Ghost_of_JB]

Rudy Gay, I mean Tatum gets it. I can never tell the difference between those two.

[Celtics_Champs]

Jayson **** Tatum!!!!!

[Celts17Pride]

Jayson Tatum 60 points. What more needs to be said?

[GotDaSauce]

Don't **** around. Tatum smokes it!!!!

Only guy this game to show up ready from start to finish today!!!
Nesmith gets a puff tho!

[Captain_Caveman]

Tatum, obviously. 60 points, 0 turnovers?

Hat tip Smart for an A+ game as well. He ate DeRozan alive for a solid half hour there.

[itrsteve]

This is insane. I hate to celebrate what should have been a loss, but whatever. That had me at my seat from 25, 20, 18... This has to quit being a habit though.

Nesmith is here apparently.

JT almost had the game scoring record, wtfffffffffff

Strange night.

Somebody needs to check in on Grant though

[djFan71]

I plan on making a lot of posts tonight, after they release me from the hospital for the heart attack I just endured..

Remember to mention Nesmith.

[reload141]

Please Brad. Play Nesmith more.

Best win of the season but my god, can we not dig a hole at the start of games please.

Death, Taxes and Tatum the GOAT.

[Mr_Mojo_Risin]

Amazing win, up there with all time and AoS in the same game

Tatum, Tatum and Tatum. Holy mother of god.

Nesmith and TT were huge.
