I find myself liking every player on this team (well at least the top 10 or so players) more than any team in a long time.

I actually find Rozier growing on me a bit and a like what him and smart can bring together off the bench ALOT, and I really like the Chemistry that Brown and Tatum are showing with Irving and Horford.

Damn,

Cannot believe that this team may be adding a top 5 draft pick and at least Horford to it....

I do not Envy Brad Stevens with deciding who starts and who plays where.....damn...

Love the heart....

IMO Team Heart whould be a choice for VC tonight if the team holds off.

Just trade Towns to Boston for Yabs. Minny needs a change.

LOL, we knew Wiggins was a fraud, but where was Towns in the second half? He got his double double and then checked out.

Andrew Wiggins is so underwhelming. Seems to me to be a low motor player. Waste of talent.

Wiggins would've been a nice pick if he was drafted say, 6th

you expect more from a 1st pick. you expect way more from a guy that hyped

Celtics now 22-0 when outrebounding opponents. 23-1 when holding opponents under 100 pts. 24-1 when holding opponents below 45% shooting.

Cool beans.
