Celtics (49-22) at Jazz (33-36) Game #72 3/18/23

Not complaining, but it's very nice that Tatum has 0 points and we're still up 13 with a nice balanced attack. Good signs that we're a deep team

THE MOOSE IS LOOSE

[jpotter33]

Jaylen's definitely looked like our best player over the past week, even in a few of the losses

Eh, JT was great last night.

JT is also seeing double teams almost every night. They're double teaming him on every possession tonight. That makes a difference, especially when JT makes the right plays and doesn't try to force it through the double teams.

We are 7-13 shooting 3s this quarter.

Tatum hasn't taken any 3 yet after shooting 4-29 the last 3 games.

Love the ball movement.. where is Smart? 🙂

I wouldn't consider Marcus the cause of the team going away from moving the ball.

[slamtheking]

good first quarter overall.   Tatum not having a great game and a few questionable shots by some others but overall, a good quarter

[ozgod]

Good defense turns to good offense

[jpotter33]

Loving JT's demeanor tonight. He's a top 3/4 MVP candidate, yet before that dunk he'd only attempted one shot due to being double teamed each time down the floor. Trusting his teammates and making the right plays and passes.

LOL my dad entered the room and was like "wait the Celtics are playing again" 

It certainly feels like they've been playing a lot these days (3 games in 4 days)

[jpotter33]

That seems to be textbook flagrant foul material for that call, though JT usually gets screwed on these.

[SCeltic34]

Good thing JT didn't bust his foot on that. 

[Phantom255x]

TATUM MADE A 3!

[SCeltic34]

NBA inconsistent with that flagrant call.  I'll take it but I've seen worse that weren't called.

[jpotter33]

Starting to get lazy again and jacking up early, contested threes.

[ozgod]

The other players making Utah pay for doubling JT this game
