Celtics (43-28) at Nuggets (42-29) Game #72 3/20/22

[SHAQATTACK]

Solid 9 deep!

My Nessie is gonna be here soon

[nickagneta]

Nuggets get next to no production from any position but center.

That won't come close to beating this Celtic team. It's why I have no fear of Philly.

[ETNCeltics]

What we're doing on the road and defensively is historic. 10 of our last 11 on the road, average margin of victory of 23 points.

Speaks volumes for how incredible of a player Jokic has been that he has them 13 games over .500.

[Sophomore]

The Celts built momentum when Jokic went out and just kept pouring it on.

Once they put Grant Williams on Jokic they went nuclear. That was impressive.

That Grant block on Jokic. Wow.

[Silas]

Nine man rotation heading towards the playoffs.

Does anyone remember why Houston gave Theis a 4 year deal only to give up and trade him less than a year later? What were they planning? Did some other team structure thing not work?

His <10m 4 year deal looks reaaaalllly nice now

I think that's a clerical decision. Ink him to a multi-year, mid-level deal, and your rebuilding team is guaranteed to get quality for him in a trade.

[#1P4P]

Smart barely played the 2nd quarter. The only things that kept Denver in the game prior to the run were Jokic and the offensive boards, we took both off the table!

Only Championship teams dominate like this on the road! Like a well oiled machine, the Green Machine! What a time!

[radiohead]

That was an outstanding first half. Just WOW.

[slamtheking]

So this is fun.

I've really enjoyed watching this team since the start of the year. 

can't believe Tatum almost made that heave

Really?   I never stopped watching but they weren't all that enjoyable for a while.  Can't believe this is the same team.

meant since the beginning of 2022.  watching them prior to that this season was frustrating and demoralizing as hell

[SCeltic34]

Come out strong and close it early.  Would be nice if our starters could get a bit of extra rest.

[slamtheking]

Solid 9 deep!

hey man, this is a family site. 

[Sophomore]

Yes. Finish the game and get ready for tomorrow.

[Roy H.]

Nuggets threw in the towel.
