Welcome to Boston, Payton Pritchard!

Payton played 1800 minutes last regular season and was 20th among all NBA point guards in WAR.

Switch table to “regular season” and type “pg” into ‘search in table’

Hes entering his prime and only making $6.5 million next season and he plays all 82 games. For Jrue Holiday, gonna play in Olympics and 34 yrs old, PP probably gonna play an even bigger role next regular season to keep Jrue fresh for a title defense.

I can't believe Pritchard made the shot in every alternate universe. The exact same way too.

Reminded me of the Jordan Poole shot near half court two years ago in the Finals. Was that the series-clinching game too? Shots like this just sap the energy out of the opponent and drops the jaws of your teammates.

Jaylen was staring at the DAL bench while striking that pose.

That’s gonna be the iconic moment from this whole title run, I’d guess? (Jaylen’s 3 against IND a close second) Pritchard from half court going to be the “Roberts steals second” for Celtics fans. If you know, you know. Bill Simmons and his dad said it was the loudest single in-game moment in the Garden since at least Larry stole the ball and fed DJ (which is mah gawd 37 years ago).

I, personally, bounced off the couch and didn’t stop laughing or smiling for at least five minutes. It was over right then and there.

I feel bad for anyone who tried to hit the snack bar early to avoid lines, and missed that shot. You know there were some. :nod:

Sean Grande’s one of my favorites I’ve got to look up some of his calls from the finals that reminds me.

Short video, yet padded even so.

They apparently value previous experience with the USA Team bball program. Galloway has played on a bunch of these FIBA qualifier teams.
