It’s crazy how the Celtics can have a comfortable lead against a pretty good Cavs team with JT not as sharp.

Cavs scoring off lucky bounces. I like our defense in this game than last.

JB threes and fades (which i normally hate) falling is a gamechanger.

I'm liking the way we're playing, feels like the team has taken a step forward since the beginning of the year and they're still getting better

Good enough to be a starting and closing unit.

JB with his best JT impression so far, he's balling

Great after timeout play for KP.

Good timeout by Joe when the Cavs cut the lead to 7.

If they are shooting 40% not 20% from the three we'd be tied.

Too many weapons. As long as they keep moving the ball and not let opposing defense get set, hard to stop everyone.

Good job slamming the rebound to your teammate, Jaylen

Annoying, JT, annoying. That’s not even a 2-for-1.

Tatum playing hero ball is unnecessary on a team like this…

These shots from Tatum don't help anyone. Not sure why he doesn't back his man down more from the wing.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!
