Just following along until overtime when I could watch it, great win for the team against the second best team in the league. These are the wins that build character. TPs for all!!

Just too bad they were facing the best team in the league!  ;)

As frustrating as they can be at times, I think when fully healthy we're clearly the best team in the league.
yea, no porzingas tonight and the celtics still win. i hope it deflates, disheartens, and destroys the wolves.

Celtics 30-31 from the line and only 8 turnovers.
In close games those two matter a lot.

JB+JT 26/27 from the line.   Excellent job fellas!
Glad they have improved their FT scoring and limited turnovers

26 points for Tatum in 12 minutes from the 7:00 minute mark in the 4th. Amazing.

But - it all started with him attacking the basket and varying up his offense. He's GOT to learn to do that more consistently. He's got to stop playing like Curry and diversify his offense more, which he absolutely has the skillset to do.
At halftime, I thought the only way the C’s would win is if Tatum puts up a heroic late-game effort, and that’s what happened.

This win was also important for a potential tiebreaker scenario with Minny.

I doubt they keep up with us in the record with both of us having really weak schedules remaining, and it's still going to be tough for them to make it through the West with a middling offense, especially with how unplayable Gobert has traditionally been in the playoffs. But that said, it's a possibility still to meet them in the Finals, and tonight will go a long way in making sure we retain homecourt in that scenario if we would by chance tie in our final records.

White had a bad night shooting but had 6rebs,6assists and was a team high +11

That rebound off of JT’s missed freethrow was huge!

Tatum was dodgy for a large chunk of this game but he came good late on.

The finals home-court talk may be true, but I'm gonna focus on the East first. This team has shown me they struggle beating teams like Miami Heat, so we need to smoke them hard, along with any other eastern conference foes in the way.

Also just want to add that the Garden crowd was awesome this game.  It seemed like the TWolves were rattled by the crowd's energy at the end of the 4th and later in OT.
