Looking good! Our offense is so much different with the addition of Hayward out there.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Anyone else getting tired of them talking about Toronto the entire game, even though the Celtics are leading?

I love the bash brothers lineup.  Williams and Kanter rebounding and setting screens like old school teams.

I won’t complain if brad gives Tatum extensive rest now.
Looks like the smarter opposing coaches have figured out a way to contain Jayson. They lure him into his favorite shot positions but with just enough coverage / room to force him to miss. Looks like a lot of open shots but they are not.
If he takes 20 shots a game with him being game planned for at this point of his career .... this will lose us a lot of close games

The Bucks are the clear #1 in the conference.

But a healthy Celtics team is probably #2 even in a loaded East (even over MIA + PHI, IMO).

Enes Kanter started 5-5 and looked unstoppable. Since then he's 0-5 and looks very stoppable. It seems like he gets blocked a lot.

I don't know, I think he's just missed some shots today.

Tatum looking poopy today.

Brown looking not poopy today.

Tatum and Brown..... WOW

Then we got Kemba and Hayward..

I like our chances in a seven game series against ANYONE.

I think they give him these semi open lanes to lure him in off balance iso plays... that’s the way it looks to me 🤷🏻‍♂️

Kanter with 12/11 in just 16 minutes.

I don't care what people say, Kanter's elite rebounding ability and also scoring ability are two things I love to see. Not something we've had in our front court for a while (not even with Horford honestly).

Yeah the defense isn't great, but he can help us in so many other ways. Remember his playoff run with the Blazers last season?
