no stress in this game at all. it is about time to put the deep bench into the game.

That second T might be rescinded by the NBA just to appease the Celtics. That was a clear whack. JT had all the right to complain.

Sticking it big time to Ime and his defense...

[Neurotic Guy]

I love how PP is playing this game.  Fast, aggressive, decisive.

He’s a weapon.  Don’t trade Payton.

I missed most of the first half - what was the reception like for Ime?

[Silas]

I love Payton's game and he's 3/3 from 3 tonight.

What's CJ Washington's problem?

When is this team going to learn? The refs (want to) control the narrative of each game. And blow outs are bad for the NBA. The reffing changes when you're up big (especially if you're on the road!).
Celtics fans belief that the refs are worse this year is a function of us being a better team with a better point differential. The refs are not giving us calls as much when we're up 30. We just have to deal with it.

+1.  I loved PP as a rookie and I love his game now.

I love that even when we're up big, our bench comes in and still maintains the lead or adds to it.

Even besides our Top-6, I think we have a solid 7-10 (Hauser, PP, Brissett, Kornet)

[Atzar]

Whitmore is really intriguing.

[hwangjini_1]

hauser is in a shooting slump it appears. at least it doesnt matter tonight.

Not much of one at all, even a little booing. I was shocked. I figured he’d get a standing O. But overall, not much more than for a typical coach.

[Silas]

This blowout feels so good after the Bucks game.
