Have seen that before, unfortunately.

Coupled with a steal into turnover & the clutch makes. All Jrue.

Tatum gotta be the most manufactured star in the league. He’s not that guy

Jrue had stretches of pretty remarkable clutch shots with us in the regular season, iirc. He could be 0-20 and then hit that step back in the final 5 minutes.

Murray getting mauled turns into a bricked Boston three.

Joker putting Porzingas into the stantion three times in a row is amazing.

Brook can do it too.

Kinda on brand for Jrue when he was with us. He’d be like 3/16 then randomly drill some huge step back three in the clutch.

Can't stand how they never call him for push offs and hooks with his off arm.

Yeah Jrue is 'clutch' but still 2-6. If he would hit shots earlier for us, he wouldn't have to be clutch

Yeah, except he'd do it against the likes of the Wizards or something. Never really in big matchups, unless I'm forgetting some?

Is Doris in a green blouse behind the Cs bench?

Hit clutch shots vs. the Nets in the ECSF 21. Was clutch vs the Cs in '22, despite all of the terrible decisions & shooting.

Fun game. Missed free throws the difference

I'll never forget the last Denver/Boston matchup.

Read on Twitter

Was absolutely laughing out loud with how insane the favoritism from her was.

Must have left my memory of the specific clutch shots. I just remember his abysmal shooting in that Nets series, particularly the last two games. Think he was like 3/20 from 3 in that stretch.

Cs needed the refs to stay in it. Jrue hacking Joker with a no call. Tatum having a chance to miss a second FT.

Thats the thing. His shooting was awful. But he had the big balls, cold veins clutch makes. When the bucket was absolutely necessary he'd come through.

If you define clutch as only very small moments in a game, sure. He was 3 for 16 from 3 in games 5-6 that I would define as all clutch minutes

Oh I remember. All too well. Begging him to pass the ball.

The Celtics are like the 49ers of the NBA.

No matter good they are, there always seems to be at least 1 team that has their number.
