Smart has DOMINATED this game defensively.  Needs to be recognized.

  • So what if we don't win 73 - the ring's the thing
The thing that's so amazing with this team is being down a ton just doesn't seem to bother them. I hate that they get down in the first place of course, and you'd like to see them just bury a team for once, but this amazing unflappability and calmness from a very young group is extraordinary. I get as mad as anyone when they play like crap to begin with and get in these holes, but a part of me also accepts that it's probably part of the deal for these young guys and I know they will find a way to fight back, win or lose. It's what makes this team so much fun and yet so maddening to watch at times. But above all else, it just fills you with excitement for the years ahead knowing just how much upside this group has. Great time to be a Celtics fan.

Morris has looked great today. Are people finally realizing what he's going to bring to this team?

Love this team, but why does Smart take threes early in the clock?

Must be part of the game plan.

He has the green light as a shooter and if you are open Stevens doesn't care if you are taking it early.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This is my favorite Celtics team since the big 3s prime.
How many other teams have been good since though?

The tail end of the big 3, and Isaiahs heroics weren't quite as fun for me. Amazing, maybe, and made me happy to be a Celtics fan, but not as sweet as this team.
