Wowzers you guys I can hardly believe it myself but we won our 8th big game in a row!

Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard and Derrick White! Also KP and Sam!

Celts started the game a bit sloppy but took control once they decided to box out and play a little defense. They went on a big run in the 2nd quarter and it was smooth sailing from there. Solid win without JT, Jrue and Horf!

Bulls tomorrow, Go C's!







2nd half:

I don't care what starters are out and how bad the team is we are playing..

I consider this fun as hell..

JB and PP for me!!!

JB and DWhite were TeRRIFIC

PP deserves a big ShOUT

JB made it look so easy.

VC to JB.

PP had a great game, CP.

Jaylen deserves it I know but I had to give it to Rabbit P

56-14 lol

ON to CHI ...keep it rolling, stay healthy

No competition tonight even w/o 3 of our top 6.
7 had an excellent excellent game - wish he could make FTs & stop the TOV BINGES.
ZINGER was hot & cold, but solid.
Derrick just missed another trip dub w 19 points - could not hit his 3 tonight.
Payton outstanding again w 20 points, 9 A and 4 threes.
Nice to see Sam make 4 threes as well.

56-14
Magic Number down to 1 more likely than 2 for HCA in the ECF.
Magic Number down to 7 for the NBA Finals.

Let’s sweep this road trip!

This team's achilles hEEL ...lose our eDge, play around tooo much with leads

It was nice to see Queta again. Haven't seen much of him lately, but I'd still like to give him that last spot, with an extra year or two at team option.

Great win!!

Such a drag going from Mike to Drew Carter though. Hearing him and Scal goof around the whole game isa drag for me. Wish they would have gave it to Grande instead.

But yeah, mini rant aside, it was a great win.

The Celtics were down a bunch of guys, didn't shoot particularly well, missed a lot of free throws and still dropped 129. Mazzulla ball is incredible.

Pritchard doing his thang again

Pritch has been playing really well. Always had low turnovers and decent 3 pt. %. Showing a much more rounded game lately. I hope his teammates continue to pass him the ball as soon as he has daylight. Jaylen showed one of his All NBA-like performances, which he does every now and then. Still, he managed 4 turnovers so he's keeping some of those old habits. Derrick White is the other engine that helps this team run. Nice to see Tatum (ankle), Holiday (shoulder) & Al (toe) get a day off, even if they are injured.

An alternative view:

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

+29 Jaylen Brown 32 minutes

+21 Derrick White 36 minutes
+18 Payton Pritchard 38 minutes
+16.5 Kristaps Porzingis 26 minutes

+10.5 Sam Hauser 24 minutes
+8 Oshae Brissett 19 minutes
+6.5 Neemias Queta 3 minutes

+6 Luke Kornet 17 minutes
+5.5 Svi Mykhailiuk 16 minutes
+3.5 J. Davison 3 minutes

+3.5 Xavier Tillman 20 minutes
+1 Jordan Walsh 3 minutes
0 J. Springer 3 minutes

Team Total = 130.5

Queta's got some real ability. As Mazzulla said a few days ago, "His time is gonna come."
