Celtics (16-3) at Cavaliers (17-3) Game #20 12/1/24

Great start by JT. Love seeing KP's energy out there. Invaluable having your 7'3" big man coming off major surgery willing to dive on the floor to get the ball.

Great response to come out of the half. Definitely more energetic to come out this half. Seems to be a theme this year.

In order to win KP and Tatum probably have to go nuclear

Holiday unfortunately looks horrible tonight too

His offense hasn't been great most of the season thus far, and his shooting percentages are way down, especially from three and especially from the corner.

I'm hoping that now with KP back he'll start getting some better looks again, but really hope this is just a slow start for him and he starts rounding into form.

Refs have decided to make the game about them this half and switched up the standard at halftime. Hate when they do that. It's benefitting us right now, but it could very well turn against us soon.

Ha! Hauser looked off the open corner three and stuck it in their face!

[SCeltic34]

huge shots by Hauser.

i guess hauser decided he will play basketball tonight.

[Atzar]

Good response to start the half.  Hauser making a positive impact at both ends.

[Silas]

Nice start of the 3rd.

[trickybilly]

So has the Jordan Walsh project been paused?

[SCeltic34]

I hope Peterson has another good half left in him . We're going to need good bench play.  How we hold up in the non-Tatum minutes.

He is getting more crafty lately.

When Garland switches on KP it creates problems for the Cavs. Once the help comes KP just passes it to the open man, which was Hauser the last time.

[Silas]

5/7 from 3 big part of the strong start...also good D.

[SCeltic34]

Wow.  Atkinson chewing out the refs worked.

[liam]

WOW, refs...

[jpotter33]

Lol this is why NBA officiating is so bad. Now they've once again switched up their standard because Atkinson yelled at them. Grow up, zebras! So ridiculous and obvious this is.
