Omg can you believe it you guys we already won our 2nd big game this is nuts!

C's started slowly but got it together soon enough. It was the Jays + DWhite Show again and Payton was feeling it and Queta played well and we won yay!

Pistons Saturday, Go C's!

The search for a team that can force Tatum to play in the fourth quarter continues.

I wished Tatum developed more of a paint game. Still basically loves the 3 point arc. Anyway another expected win. Go C’s!!

Went with Payton. And I’m sorry, gonna rant a minute but not keeping Lonnie is criminal. Look at the absolute scrubs on our bench. Sign that guy ASAP!

Praying for a close game so we don't have to watch our scrubs in the 4th. Celtic fans deserve that :banghead:

Liked what I saw from Queta. Energy.

45 3PA is a nice sign after 61 attempts on opening night. I still think a little more JT/JB in the midrange, high post would be nice … but 45 attempts is pretty reasonable

Very chill game. I love these types of games where you know you're going to win pretty much the whole time.

Send JD out of the organization.

Send Walsh to Portland.

Send Rico Dorchester to a 3-point clinic.

Send Springer off with a future 2nd.

Send a new contract to Walker...

Voted for Team. Just such a delightful performance to watch. Also a much needed distraction for me as my elderly mother had bladder surgery this morning (I just spoke to her on the phone, she is fine and the operation was a success thankfully, I was still feeling a lot of anxiety, but this game helped quite a lot.

The maturity and confidence of Pritchard continues to impress me.

I am sure some fans on social media will complain about Joe Mazz pulling out Tatum for most of the fourth quarter in order for JT not to keep going for his early season MVP push but it's a very long and gruelling season and it was the right call.

Loved Jaylen's third quarter (Happy Birthday JB)

Queta was quality for the minutes he played tonight. I love his work ethic..

I think that number goes right back up with Sam Hauser back and a little less double big lineup..

I secretly hoped we would lock Tatum in a room with McHale and big AL Jefferson for a summer

They might be scrubs but they're scrubs with upside. If we give them minutes and develop them, they'll get better and won't be scrubs anymore. The hope is that at least 1 or 2 of them develop into a solid rotational piece. That's less likely to happen if they're on the bench in favor of LOnnie Walker - a guy who's about to turn 26, with 6 yrs of NBA experience so he has much less upside.

At this point, Walker pretty much is who is he is - a guy who all 30 teams passed on offering a roster spot to.

We won the game by 20. If we had Walker in there during garbage time, we would have won by 20. It wouldn't have made a difference.

It doesn't matter how many points we score or how many points we give up during garbage time. All that matters is that we use those mins to develop our end of bench players so they can get better and hopefully develop into rotation players.

I would rather see Queta in that room myself, or Watson.

Last year the Maine Celtics often became pretty lame when Queta went out of the game. The same thing happened to those same players tonight. They didn't even have Kylor Kelley.

Jordan' Poole's scorching start temporarily made this appear to be a game for a little while, but that didn't last.

There was some question about where Hauser's missing minutes would go. In part they went to the big men. HKXQ logged 65 minutes with mostly Tillman playing the second big man alongside others.

In his first half stint, Queta faltered on defense a couple of times when Kuzma flashed through the lane. Other than that Big Portugal added high energy, high efficiency effectiveness. He played well against Valanciunas just as he did against Poetl in the preseason. I thought that 3 was going down.

Pritchard did his thing.

Tatum and Brown look really truly good, and so do the Celtics.
