What a crazy end to the game.  What the hell was Holiday thinking?

It seems like he is often lackadaisical going up for what he thinks are uncontested shots....but missed dunk to seal the game, wow

Wild ending.  Not a great performance, but a win is a win.

As Janos would say, this is not full perform, but the Grizzlies do the suck

Lol. This is a game we absolutely would've lost last year. We're 11-2. And yet....

Porzingis seemed like the only starter locked in on both ends. The Celtics were pretty fortunate to win.

I know bad teams provide stat-stuffing opportunities for stars, but if they're going to sleepwalk through it I wonder what the point is of even playing a Tatum or a Brown. Especially with a b2b, why not rest 1-2 guys?

Wow - crazy finish.  Holiday misses the dunk and it looked like Memphis was going to take it on that 3. Great block by KP. Big game for Zinger. I know you all complaining about the effort tonight, but I found it pretty entertaining and the Cs pull it out. Another tomorrow.

Last year the Cs probably lose this game...KP and Jrue make a huge difference.

How about Zinger with 6 blocks…[dang]!

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.

KP with a great game...26pts, 8 rebs, and 6blocks...

On just 13 shots.  Remarkable.

Tatum with the clutch assist to Zinger.  8 turnovers for Tatum, but some of those were on some awful calls by the refs.  To be fair, both teams were the recipient of the bad whistle.

it feels like we have a target on our back as the best record in the nba, and every team is going to be gunning for us.
Tonight, we didn't respond well, Tatum's 8 turnovers almost sunk us.  But some great def play by KP and JB down the stretch.

He gets the game ball. This game had his fingerprints all over it from start to finish.

They definitely are a stabilizing factor when our two superstars put their heads up their butts like they are known to do every now and then
