Celtics (36-35) at Knicks (40-32) Game #72 5/16/21

Happy for Tre Waters. Could earn him a backup role for some team next year.

Lol catastrophic choices to end the match but it was two funny matches to end the regular season, after so depressing ones.

-24 for Pritchard as a titulary and +20 for Waters, it gives credit to CBS choice to keep Pritchard on the bench 

Pritchard finished with a 6-6-6. Uh...

I think Jabari Parker just earned a slot in the playin rotation.

How many points did Jabari get?

[Tr1boy]

The Wiz!

Torch those overachievers!!

Hopefully TL can play..... bc Thompson won't be enough against Lopez and Len

That could end up being the deciding factor

So I missed the game ,  but I gather if CBS had left PP in the game for the duration we would have won ?

unknown...PP struggled today.   He looked tired

Waters deserved to finish the game

He was really good at both ends.   He is a thief at the defensive end

It was like the 2020 NBA Draft redemption game for Ainge...well, except Carsen, but at least he showed a spark. Parker and Tremont stealing the show, but also glad to see Langford look like a player and Grant scoring in a variety of ways.

He needs to go elsewhere Stevens does not know how to use him

[footey]

Celts had several opportunities to tie or win game at end. Several missed wide open 3's, one or two of them by Kornet.  Team showed a lot of grit.  Particularly Parker and the two little guys, Waters and Edwards. 

Romeo showed okay today.  He is able to get inside pretty well, just needs to finish a little better.  And make his foul shots.

I think Romeo got back into the running for some bench playoff minutes; will compete with Nesmith, who has slid back the last couple of games IMO.

[footey]

I feel Parker has gotten better defensively. He is quite strong, and was able to defend Randle one on one okay, which is no easy task. Randle is a Tazmanian Devil, he is.
