I've mentioned this all season long, but the Celtics really needed to acquire another scorer off the bench.

I can't wait for the league to crater. They been told over and over and over and **** over that the audience doesn't want that foul in the game.

JT might need to give us 55 to pull this thing out.

This team is so pathetic in 3rd quarters. Again a running joke.

We really could have used Holiday tonight

Pritch's performance in big games this season does not bode well for the Playoffs

No doubt they love PP but video and analytics don’t lie when guys get hunted on D and mismatches happen. Big leads lost two times after PP entered

Mitchell gets the foul on his drive, where he clearly fouled Kornet first, and Tatum doesn't get a whistle on the next play taking way more contact. That's all you need to know.
We won it for Al!!!

Celtics desperately need another vet wing who can defend. Holiday is always hurt and Hauser and PP can’t defend anyone

If Jrue is healthy, PP won’t get heavy minutes just like last season. Teams prepare very well for series vs regular season games.

Hard to pull away from these guys they don’t quit. I think we will end up closing this out though

Huge stretch for JB-led lineup to start 4th. He’s rested.

Put PP on a bad team and he’ll score 20 a night but his man will also score 21 that night.
