Omg you guys we stopped sucking and won the big ass game and we're back in business hooray!

PAYTON and Jay and other Jay and Derrick and AL HORFORD and Jrue and Luke and KP and DEFENSE and TEAM!

Celtics defense was sensational and we made our 3's and fought back when the Knicks pressured a bit in the 4th. Basically the Celtics played like the Celtics and delivered a much needed win!

Game 4 Monday, Go C's!!

I fully believe the winner of game 4 wins the series.

This game was won with super-solid defense and improved shot selection. The Knicks never had a chance.

Still a steep road ahead, but a good start.

Horford and Pritchard for the VC.

We play mediocre offense and we win comfortably
Defense is clicking and holding NY below 100 again

Do it again next game

PP and Al for me

JT needs to watch his Orlando series tape and take notes what he was doing.

Should be up 3-0. These guys are not good. Took a couple historically bad shooting nights for them to squeak out wins. Win the next 3 and be done with it

Celtics after 3 quarters : 96
Knicks at the end of the game : 93

Eliminate the need for the fourth. Not a bad idea after the first two games.

Took 40 3s out of their 83 shot attempts. This team will never change its stripes. They made 20 so it helps but they literally die from the 3. They might be the only team in the playoffs that relies on this.

Good win, after two horrible collapses. If this series isn't tied heading back to Boston, it'll be obviously a season ender.

Tatum needs to step up with a big Game 4.

I just haven’t seen anything from the Knicks to think that they are the better team.

We shot ourselves on the foot in games 1 and 2. Let’s go back to Boston 2-2.

I voted coach because Joe swallowed his pride and called time outs. Amazing how that works

Looks like Big Al is gonna be our primary big until he's 45, and I'm not really sure if that's a good thing or bad.

Knicks are not better.

Cs beat themselves in Games 1 and 2.

Most were open and in the flow of the game. Not rushed, not contested
PP shooting lights out helped
