Schroder is like the Poor Man's Kyrie. He's won only once since getting traded from the Cs, now on a 10-game losing streak.

Tatum, and it's not close.

Despite what I said about him, and the coach, in the game thread after the 3 at the end of regulation.

By the way, special kudos to both Big Al Horford and Jrue Holiday. Seems like regardless of what they do during the game they seem to just about always be there when you need them. Pros pros!!!!!

Don't want to bypass the Trading Deadline. Quite confident Brad will make a move with Springer and Tillman...


The Celtics actually tried to trade Springer before the start of the season. They were not successful. Lonnie Walker might have had the inside track had Springer been moved.

we know. Lots more trades get done around the deadline than training camp, hence the interest in moving him by then.

voted JT and Jrue. Wanted to also credit Pritchard for hitting shots and DWhite for blocking them. Queta was valuable again as well, Walsh played some good defense in his rotational minutes, and Al with the double double!

crappy game but at least they won it

look forward to getting JB back.

No doubt JT for VC, but PP came up big in this game.

He's reminding me of Derek Fisher.

Big shot after big shot from PP.

That fade away against Cam Johnson at the FT line was clutch and sweet!

Celtics were just 14-24 (36.84%) when scoring less than 110 points in a game in 2022-2024 (Mazulla era). They're undefeated in such games this season (1-0).

This is just their 14th win in 45 games with an effective FG% below 53% in Mazzulla era.

This is the first time in 21 career 20-plus-point games that Pritchard was without an assist.

Tatum is currently at 30.5 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 4.9 apg and 1.8 spg. 30/7/5/2 in a single season has only been done once -- MJ (1988-89).

I don't like mentioning LA players in a positive way :)
For me PP is more like Dana Barros

Gutsy win. MVP performance by Tatum.

But there were several points in the game where I was thinking we could really use a Lonnie Walker lol.

True.

A SG who could drive to the basket and score or pull up for a jumper on the perimeter.

This was re Hauser's big shot and Tatum passing to him near the end: "It's a credit to him having an understanding of, You need your teammates. And all of his teammates were empowering him to keep shooting. And 1-for-9 just means he's going to have a 6-for-10 game coming up here soon."

Our options are really minimal (salary and assets). At best I think you could obtain Javonte Green and bring him back to Boston if the Pels keep on underperforming. Green has always been a very good perimeter defender and perhaps more reliable in his overall game than Walsh, Tillman or Springer as a low-usage defensive specialist.

Yeah, Javonte is better than Walsh right now.

In 2 weeks Javonte can be traded.

Springer for Javonte works.

Read on Twitter

Mazzulla's used this at least 5x and it's worked at least 3x.
