With Irving and Hayward they'd go 66-16. Stevens uses his big men really well.

Lol Celtics won cause Philly couldn’t hit an open shot all night. Enjoy talking **** while you can.

Celtics won because the Sixers left the Celtics open all night and couldn't keep up defensively. I sure enjoyed your **** talking while you could.

Man rozier is a beast. Going to be interesting watching him find a new team after next summer. Surely if he keeps this up no way Boston can justify paying rozier and Irving.

Simmons is a legit cheap shot artist. That's his 3-4th cheap shot in 5 games against us.
Good assessment:

I don't think kyrie could play any better than what roziar is providing


If Kyrie and Hayward would be there it would mean less shots for Rozier, Tatum and Horford. Would those two really shoot 65% like those 3 combined? No they wouldn't so actually that Kyrie and Hayward are out from this game it actually made this team better. For this game, but we will see about remaining games. Not taking anything away from Irving and Hayward, but it quite often seems people think the shots they are taking are addition to teams shots, but fact is all their shots are deducted from team's current shots and the way Boston shot today they would not improve this team (most likely, but who knows maybe they would have made all their shots).

I think Hayward prob makes them better especially with brown out

Fultz had the same stats as the SAC19 pick did for Boston. What a trade.

Simmons is pretty annoying. His head is biiiig. You're pretty bait-y for a mod though.

Such a well-oiled machine, and Terry and Jayson are playing great.

Specially Terry, seems like its not just one off two off thing this, what happens if Terry Leads the Celtics to the NBA Finals this year? by averaging lets say 26 pts and 8 assists from here on out.

Good win for Boston, I know you can say this about a lot of games but I think the winner of game 2 wins the series.

-Philly would win both at home and go 3-1, taking the series in 5-6.
-Boston would steal one in Philly and win in 6.
