I love Smart as much as the next guy, but you really do that trade 10 times out of 10. :lol:

Cuz Tatum has been shooked in the 4th quarter and would have smoked them.

Agreed. JB was the opposing team's best player again though :lol:

That's good for Payton's confidence to have him in there in a kay moment..and to have him deliver with getting the ball, drawing the foul and knocking down both FTs.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Beating a good team in their home opener when the shots are not falling is HUGE.

You advance the ball with a time out if you need to save time and get a shot off quickly. There's zero need for that if you are leading and the other team has to foul. This is elementary stuff?

It removes the 8 second violation and allows you to inbound across the entire court as opposed to under the basket. Wtf are you talking about?


Yeah not sure why you would risk a potential trap underneath the opponents basket when you do have 2 timeouts available.

Celtics are the best team in basketball!

They just BEAT a team that shot OVER 50% FROM 3. That's INSANE.

Jaylen needs to take a back seat to zinger and accept that he should be playing 3rd banana and not forcing things. Become a cutter and spot up shooter who maybe 3-4 times a game goes iso into the midrange. Doesn’t need to do more than that when we’ve got JT & zinger on the team

Terrible game and we win. Celtics have a large margin for error. So much talent.
