Celtics (41-28) at Warriors (47-22) Game #70 3/16/22

[Celtics2021]

As much as we've been on White for his shooting, his playmaking and D are still good.

But one of his biggest contributions is the ability to play PP as a 2 with him. You couldn't do that with either Schroeder or Richardson.

LOL, TP for the same thought!

Sup with white !!! I need him to keep shooting though

[Goldstar88]

Get White OFF

I don’t think that would even help at this point.

[hpantazo]

Pritchard making the big shots when we need them tonight !

[celts55]

No matter what happens tonight, I just don’t see this as a championship contender.
Bench sucks.

Ding ding ding. It allows PP to give the opposition a headache with off-ball movement and shooting.

[Celtics2021]

Nice bounce back here in the 4th to keep the Warriors out of reach.

[SCeltic34]

Nice response C's.  PP really turned it around for us/

that is much nicer. 

more passes. taking open 3s. attacking the basket. lead up to a less nerve-wracking number.

One of the positives of White is that it lets Pritchard play off ball. That’s where his future is in the NBA.  I know White’s struggling shooting, but he still balances the lineups better than Schröder and Richardson did.

Terrible shooting night for DW tonight, but agree with what you said - and also his defense has been good. His help has been well timed and he hasn’t over helped.

The shot will come back 🤞

Having shooters on the floor changes everything.

His defense actually looks improved, too. I think he realized that he's got to be solid there defensively if he wants to play in Ime's system.

You'd think with his size that he'd be exploited more, but I don't see it all that much anymore.

Celtics move the ball much better on offense of late, but there is still very little player movement.

Our offensive sets still mostly consist of four guys taking their positions around the perimeter and either Brown or Tatum going into their one-on-one bag of tricks until they jack up a contested shot, drive and then pass the ball back out to one of the statues on the perimeter or, way too often, turning the ball over. When are we going to implement some motion into the offense ?
