I'd rather Tatum be off on nights we don't need him to score a bunch. White and Brown smoke it. It feels great to have a team where your best player can be meh and it doesn't matter even a little..... It will matter down the line though so get your s*** together JT!

25 point win, no KP and an off shooting night from JT. I'll definitely take it.

JB for the VC, D White for CP and shout out to Luke Kornet giving us good minutes off the bench.

I picked a sweep of the Heat and overcompensated by going Cs in 6 for this series.

It’s whatever, just don’t get hurt and keep rolling until there’s no more games to play.

It’s so soft, I’m sorry.

I get needing to see this team win the title before you believe, but there’s been some ridiculous posts. Chrisab probably still thinks we’re going to lose the Heat series.

It's pretty much the same deal. They can only win with a barrage of threes. That's not hard to take away if we're paying attention.

At this rate Derrick White is gonna be the Finals MVP. And I'm so ready for it.

Feel bad for Mitchell. That dude needs to find some running mates.

I really don’t feel bad.

Imagine if the ECF is IND and the Finals is MIN or OKC. People’s heads asplode. And I’m not saying Cs would be favored in the Finals.

Ben-N1ce wrote:Jaylen. Might have been his best game this year. Really good on both ends. Very impressed by the teams low turnovers. We are always super hard to beat when keep those low.

Turnover percentage of the Celtics last three years:
2021/2022 13.9% (13th)
2022/2023 13.3% (7th)
2023/2024 12.1% (1st)

Credit Mazzulla for getting those guys to play smarter and Stevens for get more offensive threats to stretch the opposing defensives and simplify the reads for the Celtics.

JB gets it for me. White for the CP. Kornet was huge cleaning up all the JT misses. Good overall game.

BK and Ex have praised Brown tonight, will Curm make an appearance and make it a clean sweep?

Tatum's shooting really is garbage though.

I will take a JT poor shooting night + blowout win over JT historic shooting night + close loss. No questions asked.

But can he maybe please take better shots than what he took today? Cavs defense wasn't even that good. In a lot of possessions, he just had one on him. Either he settled for threes or was making it tough on himself in the paint.

Bottomline, JT has to be better. Especially in later rounds.
