JB’s defense is so much better now than previous years.

DWhite, agree, with @jimnance horrible first half…solid second half. It was weird to see him look so sloppy at the beginning of the game. He’s almost always zoned in.

JT was trying lot of these next level moves in 2022-23 but wasn’t able to finish a lot at the rim. It’s great to see these high difficulty drives paying off.

Knicks are 5-6 after a home loss to the Bulls. Lol

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

This is basically a G League plus team they’re losing to in 3rd quarter. Worst team in NBA missing their only talented players.

What the heck is going on here?

I’m guessing they get it together and pull it out but they’re gonna get embarrassed by Cleveland if they don’t break out of this funk.

Again, last second shot, Tatum.

Missed again. When will the learn? Never.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

We got our JT buzzer brick.

Only team in the NBA where one player takes the final shot 100% of the time.

Nice shot.

 

[ViperGTS]

Here is a do over. Gonna ISO Tatum again and clank another one?

Lets wait and see!

 

[ViperGTS]

Holy cow, he finally did it!!

Of course they missed a blatant foul on Brown but whatever.

At least they tried to open it up with Brown at top of the key. Hell of a shot given the play was broken.

The crow tastes good.

I also have a theory. My theory is the league is letting opposing teams get away a lot against the Celtics.

Finally. That might get him confidence in those moments. In basketball when you see one go in during a certain situation it can lead to more.

Nice shot.

Reminds me of Bird but with misses. Bird always made his.

I haven't seen the numbers but it looks like the Cs defense isn't playing that well.

That's just going to encourage more Tatum ISOs.

It’s funny how all the dummy former player pundits, and some fans, say “Live by the 3, die by the 3” with some satisfaction when a team doesn’t shoot well. Like we didn’t go through 50 years of “Live by the 2, die by the 2” when teams would frequently have poor shooting nights when they averaged 85-90 points before the 3 pt era.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Beautiful first half

 

[jimnance]

Wow what a 1st half for the C's!
3pt barrage just buried Cavs.
Boston up 17. Really well-played all-around game for us. Defense, hustle,rebounding,passing,energy and incredible 3pt shooting

Can’t wait to get Queta out of this game down the stretch. He’s had a really bad night.

If we lose this game it’s on Mazzula for not getting Queta off the floor.

Biggest regular season game and Tony Brothers is assigned.

Can’t handle quicker bigs. Too slow and overplays. This is why I don’t like this matchup.

Derrick White is devouring Darius Garland’s soul.

 

[jimnance]

Good game.
But stupid foul by JT on Mitchell with 14 secs left and up 5.
Why would you even attempt a steal in that situation?
Looked to me that JT was pissed off bout sumpin and lost his cool.
He's usually more level headed than that.
But he coulda cost us the game
