Jayson Tatum on Jaylen Brown’s injury: “I feel like I need to buy him a car or something.”

What kind of car? “Something safe.”

ha

muscala looked a little lost on D last night but i like the way he plays

god that pritchard to tatum lob in the 1st q was nice

pritchard really has gotten so much better

rare off game for time lord

it’s been said a lot but for the life of me why is tatum playing when boston is up 17 in the 4th

celtics are like a lot of injuries its fine we will just hit threes

good decision imo

yeah its not a bad plan

its actually the correct plan if you are light on talent

it's pretty nice, muscala is the cherry on top, next man up always able to hoist

he was getting roasted on d tho they were going after him suspect kornet is ahead of him in situations where it really matters

The Celtics have made a league-best 19.5 3-pointers per game since Mazzulla said this. They’re also leading the league since then in 3-point attempts per game (45) and 3-point percentage (43.3). https://t.co/hsqj6Uw1SQ

threes

leading the league in attempts and percentage thats they way to do it baby

pretty good

Derrick White has started the last 10 games in place of Marcus Smart, while the starting point guard recovers from a badly sprained ankle. In that stretch White has played his best basketball since joining the Celtics roughly a year ago.

White has averaged 19.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.1 blocks. He’s also shooting 50.4% from the field over that stretch, including 47% on three pointers.

hed never had a 20-10 game before having two in a row the last two games

stats

After yesterday’s win against the Grizzlies, the Celtics are now 13-4 against top-10 teams (by point differential) and are outscoring those opponents by 10.1 points per 100 possessions. Dallas has the second-best net rating against those teams at +3.1.

celtics continue to hoist

congrats to the official coach

The Celtics announced that they have officially named Joe Mazzulla their head coach. He had been working with an interim tag all season after replacing Ime Udoka days before training camp. At 42-17, Mazzulla has the Celtics in first place entering the All-Star break.

congrats to coach joe, an absolute weirdo if ever there was one.

with coaches its the bigger the freak the better

btw marcus ball hawking in his first game back last night was good stuff he was just taking the ball from them lol

suspect they held him out the max amount let him get in good shape altogether he tends to get banged up

nekias on white

Among the 161 players to defend at least 300 pick-and-rolls, only Desmond Bane (0.22%) has been washed out by a screen at a lower rate than White has (0.26%), per Second Spectrum.

Put another way: Of the 760 screens that have been set on White, only 20 (!) of them have taken him out of the play.

wild game

the pacers always seem to stumble into having a bunch of good players despite not really trying to

the jays > kobe-shaq

Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have each scored 30 points in the same game 9 times this season, including tonight's win over the Pacers.

Over the last 30 years, the only duo to record more such games in a season is Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal (10 in 2000-01, 12 in 2002-03). pic.twitter.com/NIFY7pbXXX

i was going to say, before i even saw this game, how many times have we read “tatum overcame a poor night of shooting…”

https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/derrick-white-doesnt-produce-like-nba-superstars-so-why-do-the-advanced-stats-think-he-is-one/

hes been so good

he's really one of the most annoying players to be on the other side of unless it's one of those games where he's bricking all of his threes

it’s not fair they have too many guys

any game where marcus smart & derrick white are doing marcus smart & derrick white stuff while also making three pointers is prob the most aggravating backcourt in the NBA

v happy for derrick, going from culinary school to important role player on a title contender is the fuckin dream

yeah its crazy he didnt even play d1 until senior year

a late bloomer, iirc he was hella short (i think 5'10" out of hs?) and then grew like 5 or 6 inches one year while at colorado springs
