good tatum!  good!

Wiggins should be a lot better def player at this point.  Not that I want him to be better tonight, but he has the physical tools to be a great defender.

The Wolves offensive plan this game was flailing and hoping for calls. We might keep them under 80. That's awesome defense and terrible offense, or both.

They got to the line twice as much as The Celtics so it worked to a degree...

Our old D coach, Tom T makes me want to hit the gym tomorrrow...Man, he is like a square and needs to lose some weight! 😁 Never seen someone that square before

LOL I was just working out (at home) before the game.

I'll be honest though, I love winter and snow, but it's hard to freaking leave the house have motivation to physically go to the gym or even workout in this bitter cold.  :P

FTFY.

Screw working out. It's too cold to even leave the house right now. It was -1 this morning in Cleveland when I walked outside for work, and it was windy as all hell, too. I have about 150 yards to walk from the parking garage to the Clinic, and my whole mustache was frozen over by the time I got inside!

Held a top-5 offense to 84 points tonight! Add to that the GS and Cleveland games, and we are truly an elite defensive team!

Have the Celtics lost when they out-rebound their opponent this season? Can't be more than two surely.

Celtics are playing really well and the bench is a big part of it.

I like Jaylen and Tatum better than Wiggins. Wiggins is a one way player and he only has 10 points on 3-12 shooting. Wiggins is also on a max contract and Jaylen and Tatum are both on rookie contracts for a few more years.

Another good win vs a likely playoff team.

Another win vs the WC.

I believe that is now 5 wins in a row.

One of the best wins of the season as far as I'm concerned.

Great performance against a really good team.
