This team doesn't get rattled anymore. 

Great leadership!

I don't know if I could point to a single thing that caused this turnaround for the Celtics, but I think Tatum's drastic improvement in movement off the ball has to be as important as anything.  He learned that he doesn't necessarily have to handle the ball to stress the hell out of the defense.  It's getting him easier shots and it's also empowering his teammates to make plays - often at the expense of defenders who now have multiple jobs and can't possibly cover all of them adequately.

He gets a lot of good looks now. Ime runs some good sets for him. Especially those Iverson sets

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

JT for MVP!

But, my God, we're just straight up embarrassing GOOD teams at this point.

And I hate to say it, but we're showing flashes of Showtime Lakers-type style today.

Man I hope Tatum continues this through the playoffs.  He's been incredible this month.
