That was the most "What the hell?" Celtics victory I've ever seen.

They played like Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. from the second quarter to 1/2 way through the fourth, but then took care of business for last ten minutes.

I liked that Brad was tinkering with the rotations tonight. He recognizes the 2nd unit needs a tune up.

Would have liked to see Theis in there in the 2nd QTR but I don’t care cause we won!!

Al was nowhere except on the boards. And the C's still won.

4 of the 5 starters with at least 8 boards, Jaylen - Jason - Marcus all with 9....
we are vastly improved on the boards this year.  it helps

A little sad watching Dirk tonight.  He made some plays but you can see age taking its toll.

Yeah, he's one of the great ones. Hate to see them fade. Time remains undefeated.

A hard look in the mirror should be taken with this second unit. 

yeah i am still p---ed at CBS and we need to shore up bench SOON!


Rozier with a -13 tonight, worst of the team in this game. Awful.

All star Al also made a key help-side strip on Barnes to preserve the tie late.

He had 7 assists too but I don't understand these shot distributions. Smart is not encouraged to shoot less, Horford not encouraged to shoot more, Smart is one of the least efficient players in the NBA, Al is one of the most efficient players in the NBA.

Any win is a good win. 

Props to Kyrie and the kids. 

Marcus Smart continues to be the biggest enigma in the NBA.  +/- means little in a single game.  But the fact that he continues to shoot at an unplayable level while somehow having a positive +/- game in and game out is mystifying.  Makes no sense.  Good luck to the GMs who have to somehow decide what this guy is worth.

The backup G position needs an upgrade.
