Sure we might win. But you think this team can make it far in the playoffs with these type of turnovers?

Kelly passing to Embiid in the backcourt during a press is crazy. Like **** tier execution all around

Maxey, Embiid and Caleb Martin shot 14 out of 23 in 3s

I mean, they're not gonna shot that normally, but George should not be 0-7 either

Maxey still isn’t a PG despite being a superstar. Crazy times.

good win. Merry Xmas y'all. Cavs are the clear best team in the East. All the Celtics do is launch a whole bunch of 3s that usually go in against us lol

Great win! If Caleb could play the Celtics all the time, he would be a hall of famer.

At some point people will start calling out George Paul...AKA, Podcast P, for the fraud he is.

George and Oubre are basketball losers. It's fitting that a fraud GM would like these guys.

I'm just glad we held on. I thought we'd thrown this one away for sure. What a cool gift this was for us. It's been a **** year. Hopefully we can turn a corner now.

Shut them haters up Tyrese.....

On a top heavy team, Tyrese and the role players showed in the 4th what it looks like to be able to put on a little run in the 4th, that they have traditionally needed to play 4 quarters of flawless ball to cover the loss of 100 million dollars of talent giving you nothing

Caleb and Yabu getting like 5 seconds of open look instead of being covered

Nice win but did we really give Paul George a four-year contract that might go down as worse than the Tobias Harris contract -,that guy is completely cooked.

Yup, need to find a way to get rid of Paul George somehow I don’t know how but this guy plays at about 50%. He doesn’t give a ****.

The Celtics have been previously prone to Sixering. I wouldn't say they are completely immune to it even after winning a chip.

The keys to this game were simple math. Kept it close in 3PFG while getting more FTA.

It's a good win and certainly could be taken as proof of Morey's concept here. That being said, they are such in a massive hole this season the smart play is still to tank.
