God I hope Jaylen is ok. Good to see from Fournier though.

Timelord VC, ain't close.

Rob with 20-9-8 and dominant at the defensive end. VC. Great game by Smart. Fournier with a shooting display. Laugher when we needed it.

Timelord.

Props to Smart for the monster defense and playmaking, and Fournier for heating up late.

This was a team they should've beaten soundly, so not gonna celebrate this one as much.

On the other hand, seeing Fourner hit 7 threes on the way to 23 points was fun, as was Time Lord getting a 20-9-8. Hard to pick VC between those two, but I'm going with Fournier. Looks like he blew the game open in the 4th with his shooting.

Fournier for the narrative or Time Lord for merit.

I'll go Fournier.

TIMELORD

I’d say Tatum is our best player and our closer but if Timelord keeps these kind of performances up, he will be our most important. Absolute gamechanger.

The real VC for the game is Ball Movement!!!!

Since I have to pick a player it’s TimeLord easy.

20+ pts, 8+ rebs, 8+ asts, 2+ blks, 0 tovs by a Celtic since 1983: Bird (38 mins), Tatum (37 mins), Timelord (26 mins).

Check out Rob's mins lol. Oh, and he didn't miss.

Not much competition tonight. Don't get too excited about a weak opponent.

An alternative view:

Pts. + Rebounds + (0.5 x Assists) + Steals + (0.5 x Blocks) - Missed FGs - (0.5 x Missed Free Throws) - Turnovers - (0.5 x Fouls)

+34.5 Robert Williams III (26 minutes)

+23 Jason Tatum (32 minutes)
+22 Jaylen Brown (27 minutes)



+16.5 Evan Fournier (30 minutes)
+15 Kemba Walker (28 minutes)

+10.5 Marcus Smart (27 minutes)
+5 Tacko Fall (4 minutes)

+3 Tremont Waters (5 minutes)
+2.5 Grant Williams (17 minutes)
+2 Luke Kornet (18 minutes)
+1.5 Aaron Nesmith (4 minutes) - man I wish they drafted Saddiq Bey

-1.5 Peyton Pritchard (15 minutes)
-1.5 Mo Wagner (4 minutes)
-1.5 Carsen Edwards (4 minutes)

This Celtics team would probably go undefeated in the G-League.

Since 1983, only two players in the NBA have put up 8/8/8 without a FG miss and without a turnover in a game -- Jokic and Timelord.
