It was a valiant effort by the refs, but in the end the C's were able to overcome.

Won by 8 with KP fouling out in the final 4 minutes. We’re just better than them

Tough call between White and Jrue. Went White. Nice dagger by Jaylen. Now THAT is a supermax play.

Good team performance. Any player on this starting five can get hot. Tonight White smokes it. He lead our team to victory in the 2nd half. Those Butler blocks by White were icing on the cake.

We are still turnover prone. Hope the staff can improve this during the regular season.

That was a game last season's C's wouldn't have closed.

But Holiday and Porzingis steady the ship, which allows players like Tatum, Brown, and W H I T E to make max impact.

Can't wait to see this team hit full power as the season goes along.

Not bad for a player that Joe wouldn't play in the 4th quarter most of last year.

D White Puff away!!

I thought KP would do a lot better against Bam but he lost that matchup quite badly tonight. That being said, starting 5 was great. Smoked a few bunnies earlier but they were able to survive some ungodly shooting by the Heat and most importantly, close a close game once again against a quality opponent

Good win. Two games in thy one glaring issue is a total lack of bench production. If they arent going to score put in the energy and defensive players.

All starters produced in the 4th.

My vote is White and JB 2nd.

Excellent home opener win for the Celtics against a tough team. Very fun game.

Tatum, Brown, Hoilday, White and Porzingis all played pretty well. Porzingis is not the answer for Bam. Shout out to Big Al for his 10 rebounds and Brissett excelled in his role, 5 big rebounds and hustle plays. Kudos for Brown coming up with some real tough rebounds.

DWhite is easy VC for me. I’m going with Jrue Holiday for the CP. Thought Jrue played well tonight.

Excellent win!!!!!!!!

Voted Jrue, not our best player per se, but he made timely contributions where past Cs teams would have fallen apart.

That is so true.

Jrue gives the Cs stability.
