CELTICS 2010

and apparently leading the league in contests

22 points, 7 rebounds, 3 blocks for Kristaps Porzingis last night.

He's now 1st in the NBA with 14.6 contested shots per game ⛔️ pic.twitter.com/pU5pLpAh8O

yeah he shoots a little lower release which is not an issue when he can space out to the logo.

Happy birthday to the King of Cambridge, Bill Walton!

lol

would like to see more ball movement theyre way down in assist percentage, which is understandable theyre getting good shots anyway, have a bunch of guys who can create on their own, but theyd get even better shots with a lil more passing

yeah they are excelling in a very unorthodox way, they’re last in assist percentage on offense and second to last in turnovers forced on defense, also 17th in free throw rate offensively. so to say their talent has been overwhelming seems accurate, they’re shooting lights out and rebounding well on both sides too

yeah theyre getting good looks i think they just put defenses in such a tough spot with their talent that they havent had to do too much, and theyve been scoring so well that on defense theyve been able to mostly just play solid without really ramping up the effort, but one would think they will need to do more on both sides eventually

their numbers are off the charts but three of their five games have been close in the fourth and then there were two huge blowouts

so i dont think theyve been quite as good as theyve seemed but the potential is def there, and it makes sense that it would take a min to get everything coordinated since they made such big changes

a lot of hoo-hah about “now joe has his guys” and “now joe has had a whole off-season to prepare” and i know holiday came in late to that process but he plays the same type of role as marcus, so it’s not like some big monkeywrench. yet the player jrue seems to connect with offensively the most is.. kornet? idk. definitely a work in progress.

kornet was looking very effective at dunking the ball last game lol

need to see them play vs some better defenses before we know where theyre at

theyve got the #1 defense in the nba tonight

might be a tough match up for rudy tho

it always is against the teams that matter

poor rudy lol

rudy is playing much better than last year

rudy is good I’m sorry to inform the haters

correct hes good not great

it gives me no joy to report this but rudy is bad and dumb also he started covid

anyway my point wasnt really about rudys quality or lack there of just that the celtics have the personnel to pull him away from the basket where his value dies

whos he gonna guard whats the plan

Naz Reid season

tho white is out again due to the birth of his child which means the celtics will be going big so maybe rudy will do ok with horf

this is sick

Tatum is so nasty.. Peep the lefty finish. pic.twitter.com/QE2m1B9FId

pretty funny mazzulla calls timeouts normally now

the jvg investment paying off?

this new celtics play by play guy, i want to kill him

this fucking guy was like "7 on the clock" following a kicked ball that everyone knows triggers a reset to 14

tatums gotten really good at pushing off just a bit with his off arm, just a little chicken wing extended inches, not nearly enough to get called but enough to move an off balance defender

really nice pass from white

That Derrick White and Porzingis two man game is special 🍀 pic.twitter.com/QS7CM9zxzR

wow joe’s a dick

xpost ladies and gentlemen the pick and roll

joe maz has extreme weird guy energy

hes pretty weird

id probably be more down with him if he was coaching a mediocre roster to .500 instead of being the guy when they have a contending team

big patrick bateman energy

light bulb went off with kornet and the high energy play, he still not good but hes better

plus you just want to see the end of rotation guys running around like crazy when theyre out there that the good stuff

pritchard had a really nice night! that pass out of a double team to hauser for the catch and shoot three was super sweet.

i was cackling at that play where he missed a three got is own rebound dribbled out to the three point line and immediately took and made another three

i see austin reaves is no longer starting for the lakers and naturally the broadcasters are comparing him to ginobili

wrong thread smh

payton "livin in the lane" pritchard

great game for the bench whites last night

you cannot keep the rebounds away from this man

Payton Pritchard with a career-high-tying 4 offensive rebounds, leading to 8 second-chance points vs. Brooklyn.

teams appear to have gotten the memo that they can pressure jaylen at mid court if he brings the ball up and get free turnovers

or at least it's happened several times in the games I've watched
