Guess Celts are not too stupid to hold on to a lead.

Subbing out Brown for a guy who commits TOs is sort of missing the point.

But in fairness, TOs aren't usually Pritchard's thing.

Challenging the three isn't a mistake. He had one booboo, the pass off a rebound. Did more good than bad imo.

Nah. We're winning this. Jinxes aren't real.

Admit it's a good call to bench Jrue and not bring back JB to close.

Joe could put in the 3 stooges. If we win, I really do not care.

Guard the 3pt line
I have no confidence in our FT shooting

Fierce1 · Post #429 » by **Fierce1** » Wed Feb 5, 2025 2:59 am

Double big, check!

Dreaded 3rd qtr., check!

Hold on to the lead, check!

And this is not even one of the best games of the Celtics.

How come Scott Foster is still a ref in the NBA?

PierceFan4ever · Post #433 » by **PierceFan4ever** » Wed Feb 5, 2025 3:01 am

Scott foster **** off. The IQ of this team sometimes this season has been pretty low in big moments

ConstableGeneva · Post #434 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Wed Feb 5, 2025 3:01 am

Fouling and making it a FT contest puts trust on your inbounding and FT shooting. Not much trust on 3-ball defense.

ThePigeon · Post #435 » by **ThePigeon** » Wed Feb 5, 2025 3:02 am

Please make your FTs

The same reason Luka is on the lakers. I guess

He is a puppet and someone else is pulling the strings.

Good things happen when you defend

ConstableGeneva · Post #440 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Wed Feb 5, 2025 3:03 am

I still need our starting group to keep building their chemistry. Our bench saved us tonight. Everyone on bench with +10 and up. All starters in negative except Tatum who was even 0.

Matched the eye test. White did come alive late. Tatum passing was huge. Brown scoring early helped.
