Celtics (22-6) at Lakers (16-14) Game #29 12/26/23

Bron Bron just lost the ball!

[Who]

LeBron only has 14pts. Feels like he has more than that.

9rebs and 7ast as well.

[jpotter33]

The difference in the second half is our much more varied offense, putting pressure on the defense both at the rim and from the perimeter. Much more difficult to guard that kind of offense over one that is almost entirely initiated from the perimeter like in the first half.

[Silas]

Keep running the same play when it works.

[SCeltic34]

Keep running that action until LA proves they can stop it.  Two good plays from DWhite with running high PnR at the top and Tatum also setting a screen.

[Surferdad]

Trying to do too much there, White.

But like Tatum's decision there to not just force up the three. Got to the line and two free throws because of it.

Yup, a rare mistake for D-White

[hpantazo]

We better not go into our usual slow the pace down and run out the clock strategy to try to close the game. Keep attacking!

[Who]

Porzingis has 24pts.

The other four starters have between 16pts, 16pts, 18pts (Jaylen) and 19pts (Tatum). Balanced effort.

[Phantom255x]

C's have attacked the basket this quarter and are doing well. Go figure!

[Kernewek]

Having to follow along with the box score play-by-play updates and this thread, but so far so good.

Hope everyone has had a lovely holiday beyond the basketball, as well.

Keep going to the rim
Play good defense and limit their threes

You got that right.

[SCeltic34]

Amazing we're up 10 despite shooting this poorly from 3.

[jpotter33]

Definitely pushing the ball alot more this half. Love it.
