Man, all 5 makes dunks or layups. Nice.

KP isn't hitting shots, but that's the KP effect of drawing Embiid out with his deadly three.

Jrue doing a nice job on Embiid so far. Interesting strategy.

We don’t need center depth, we have Jrue!

He's done well so far, but that only works for so long. We saw that with Smart previously, too. Eventually Embiid will figure it out; he's too big and too good not to. I'd like to see us continue to switch up the looks on him between Jrue, KP, Tatum, Brown, Horford, etc., just like we do with Giannis.

1 for 8 start and tie game! The tide is turning. Wild matchup of Jrue on Embiid!

KP has the right thumb taped up, any info on that? Could be why his shot is off so far.

How long will Joe go with Jrue on Embiid? It seems to have worked on the last two possessions.

Good to see that Celtics were not just relying on 3s to get back in the game early. 2 point buckets still count

I want to know how this discussion goes in walkthroughs before the game. 

Is it "Coach, I got Embiid tonight," and Mazzulla starts laughing, until he realizes that Jrue is dead serious?

Or is it "Jrue, you got Embiid tonight," and Jrue starts laughing, until he realizes that Mazzulla is dead serious?

Boston have nobody with the muscle to stop Embiid down low. He has to go inside and punish people.
