Hey that was cool you guys we bounced back and won the big game!

Jayson Tatum right in your face! Jaylen Brown in your face as well! Jrue Holiday and Derrick White? Also in your face!

Celtics played harder tonight and were aggressive and much better defensively. Our guys must have gone to the dawg pound and got that dawg in em before the game haha.

Game 4 Monday, Go C's!

Tatum and Brown will get the votes, but Jrue set the tone and everyone followed.

Voted Jrue.

Joe Mazzulla is a basketball terrorist for playing washed Al Horford 39 minutes.

Despite a handful of incredible mental mistakes, Jaylen Brown is my choice for VC. Super efficient.

Jrue Holiday is the other player who stood out for me. Tatum didn't suck either.

Sky not falling, guys and gals.

Tatum and Brown both big. Jrue played very well. Horford sucked.

That’s the Tatum we need for the rest of the playoffs. Great all around game by him. Holiday played great as well.

JT and JB all day. Was Tatum amazing? No but he came out aggressive and everything went through him. Attacked the paint.

JB with the perfect secondary option game with 28 on 13-17 shooting. Doesn’t get better than that.

Jrue deserves a puff or two too. He was great on both ends

I wish I could be positive but I foresee a 3-1 deficit heading back to Boston.

Don’t have an assassin like Paul Pierce that would take matters into his own hands or anyone that could outplay the best players on a given night.

Paul Pierce has that aura, Ant does, Jamal Murray does, Luka does. None of our current players do.

Gave it to Jrue. He was so solid tonight.

Really good playoff win. Would have liked to see Tillman take some of Al's minutes though. Really need Zinger back

Stars showed up when we needed them to in a big way. Get game 4 too. Don't be satisfied.

Do not like White's slump. Or Horford's inability to move his body on the court. Or Joe leaving him out to dry. We need KP back. Joe doesn't trust Tillman enough I guess.

Good, solid win on the road. Tatum for VC and Jrue for CP.

JT hands down. Amazing on defense playing the center role when we got nothing from Al. 25 shots mixed with a lot of aggression is what I want to see with no KP out there

Please get 2 more wins so we can get KP back

Huge must needed win LFG

Hopefully these kind of games by JT are no longer rare going forward

Tatum and Brown.

Shoutout to Jrue who had an outstanding game and also White, PP for timely buckets.

Liked Joes timeouts but he still doesn’t have any good plays out of them.

Just need to get used to Tatum doing things differently.

Killing you softly, that's what he does.

Tatum gets my vote

Responded in the best way possible after game 2. His rebounding and defensive acts was outstanding

Confidence restored !!

Happy Mother's Day all the posters Mom's here (and indeed anyone who is a Mom herself:) )

I can stand next week with a much happier mood/frame of mind :)
