Grant Williams needs more minutes.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Grant Williams showing some stuff. Hopefully gives him some confidence moving forward.

I am guessing that Kemba never thought he would play his worst game as a pro and his team would be up over 20 entering the final quarter. Bet he is very happy to be a Celtic.
I suspect he's been happy since day one.  more talent on the C's roster this year than all the years he was in Charlotte

Grant William's has done everything Brad has asked for him and it has really come together tonight. Hopefully this is a sign of great things to come.

What a great game by Theis tonight too. Clearly Drummond is a mismatch for Theis but Theis held serve. Awesome job.

Oh, and BTW, the Jay's are showing why the Celtics future is very bright.

Good point. He's been the only game in town for his whole career. Tonight he has 7 turnovers 1 point and 10 assists. He gets to be a "distributor" while his team mates kill it.

Theis is criminally underrated. Everyone is always so quick to look for big man help while Theis continues to have a great year defensively. Only concern with him is durability. In the time he’s been with the Cs, he’s been great when fully healthy.

Time to get Walker out of there and let the bench handle the last 7 minutes.

Way too much focus on what he can’t do, not enough on what he can.

Romeo with a nice move.  wonder how many more he'll need to make before his detractors here stop calling him a bust.

Which is a big, big problem for a lot of people around here.

Haven't been able to watch game tonight. Is Kemba hurt? Or just cold?

Also is Grant looking as good as he is showing in the box score?

The move was so smooth. Great touch on the shot. I know he’s had injury trouble, but he seems to have a great frame. So much promise.

Even if the "we want Tacko" chants are a bit over the top, you can't deny how great Boston sports fans are.

Kemba’s mostly taking it easy, focused on distributing because they were blitzing him.

Grant’s been really good!
