With site back on line just adding a game thread to chat about Sunday?s comeback.  The good, the bad and the awesome all mixed in one game. 

Of note: Pritchard with DNp-CD

The Celtics flipped the script in this one. Usually they implode in the fourth quarter but came back strong against a depleted 76ers team.

We certainly decided near the end of the 3rd to start playing some actual def and attack the rim.   Once we started to get downhill going to the rim, the 3 ball just flowed like it should.   Great come from behind win.  Now don't get down by 26 to any other crap teams this year Celtics!!!

The whole team played really well in the 4th quarter.

This game aged me quite a bit

I said a lot of bad words watching this game the first 3 quarters.

I shut it off midway through the second quarter.  My daughter told me we got it to within eight, and I watched the rest of the comeback.  It's nice to see us show some spirit.

Great turnaround. The Celtics dug a deep hole and then dug out. Reminded me of the Marcus Smart Celtics.

[Donoghus]

I shut off on 3rd then my Dad texted me in the 4th and I was like "holy crap" and tuned back in.  Truly a case of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. They had no business winning that game at all.  Helluva 2nd half by Tatum.

Some of the best execution in the 4th (and late 3rd) that I have seen from this team in a while.  That is encouraging, but they need to play that way for more than 1.25 quarters.  They need to raise the floor for how bad they play when they are playing bad.  No team is going to play at their best all the time, I get that.  There will be stretches where shots don't fall or the other team is just hot.  But the Celtics can't let themselves play that bad.  They need to elevate their floor.  They should not be 26 points down to this team under any circumstance.  They showed how good they can be by coming back, their ceiling is really high.

Just think of how much they could have won by if they actually tried right from the beginning.  With shorthanded teams without stars, it's always the same thing.  No effort or focus.   I'm glad that they pulled it out in this one.  I guess better late than never for the effort.  Hopefully we see the 4th quarter Celtics against the Cavaliers.    I'm so happy to see Celtics Strong back again.  I've missed it!!
