Call your family and spread the news you guys we won the big game yippee!

Payton Pritchard! Kristaps Porzingis! Derrick White! Jaylen and Jrue and Luke! (< all did very good things!)

Celts started a little rusty but got their cylinders firing and motored past the Pistons. Yep, I just wrote that.

Wizards Sunday, Go C's!

My post on page one when Pritch was drafted:

And this is a neutral take I’ll stand on
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Tough one tonight. Lots of Celtics played well. Excellent team win.

I think I’ll go PP for VC and Kornet for CP.

Nice start after what seemed like forever before the Celtics played again.

Edit: Great to see DWhite get his shot back

Control the paint and win the 3pt battle will lead to wins like this.

Unlike Udoka, Joe was really never able to use Grant Williams.

Joe believing going big is better will benefit the Cs in the long run.

Peterson did well. Especially, after playing for Maine last night.

Went White for CP because this is a nice bounce back game from White.

Went 7-12 from 3 after struggling the last game.

Pritch and Buffalo smoke it.

Fun and mostly stress free win after the first quarter (which is good for my blood pressure)

Enjoyed some vintage Luke Kornet highlights too which was a treat.

Bit disappointed with the lack of fight by these young Pistons from an neutral perspective, esp after they crushed the Knicks at MSG a few days ago.

I love the fact we are gifted with another game vs the Wiz for not making the NBA Cup 2nd round (lol Knicks)

Pistons need an identity.

Cade is a great player, but he's more like JT when it comes to leadership.

They need a Draymond type player.

Wow
Pritch, Buffalo, JB, Zinger, Jrue, Luke
Squashed them.
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Might say this is the most fun game of the year and Peyton Pritchard deserves everything he has coming to him.
There is no prize for coming so close Do something!

Butler with orange hair? Okc? Don’t do it OKC! I still like Butler, he’s competitive as hell, but y’all have something going! Stay young and win that way, in about five seasons, if we start letting other teams win. :lol:

PP is the MVP of players getting 7-8m per year.

What a bargain!

I dunno.

But in-game programming should sound an air raid siren when Cs bomb away like that in the 3rd lol.

39-pt advantage from 3, 24-pt win.

Appreciate making 20 threes, but this was won with defense. The 15.8% disparity in eFG% is our largest this season. 18.9% from 3 is the worst we've allowed this season. Proving my theory that we can't defend the three with double bigs wrong.

We won!! Thought everyone had their moments. “Shoot em Lizbit!” is what I kept screaming every time Pritch and White shot. (Bet no one gets that reference). They were cash money!! Korny is such a solid player now, really helped us! Can’t beat vet min and what he gives!

Love my Celts!!
