Tatum routinely throws the forward pass now. Even if you don't get a transition bucket, it helps with the pace and forces the defense to scramble/match up.

That was a Curry play for Hauser easy lay.

I love that.Hauser doesn't get many opportunities.So why not Cut ..he did and they found him perfectly.

Houston should be buyers at the deadline. They’re playing well and have some assets.

It’s a real surprise that Drew Peterson played 12 first half minutes against the #1 team (record wise) in the conference. Tillman, Queta, Walsh, Springer & Scheierman logged *0* minutes … Coach Mazzulla might have played a hunch or the front office could have sent down a suggestion such as if trades could be on the horizon when restrictions come off players on December 15…

Might be nothing, might be Joe just called Drew’s number … but it’s pretty interesting decision to go with Peterson IMO

The Hause Is Finally On Fire...

Okoro adds nothing offensively against the Celts and Garland is a constant defensive liability.

Celtics!

Maybe JT's complaining worked on the refs? Quick whistle with the KP postups/screens.

Okay, who's saying bad things about Hauser? He heard you.

Fierce1 · Post #238 » by **Fierce1** » Mon Dec 2, 2024 12:28 am

The Celtics really don't care about the traditional rules of NBA basketball.

They really let the 3s fly!

One of the better 3rd quarters we have played in a while. The defence has been on point, and all our ball movement and shooting has been great. More please Celts

Hauser saw his job on the line after the Peterson stint.
