Celtics (48-19) at Nets (22-43) Game #68 3/15/25

[SHAQATTACK]

Looks like JB is injured. Not a good time to hit the injury bug for him...still got time to recover for playoffs, but kinda pushing it.

Oh no

[mobilija]

Wins are good!

We escaped. They were killing us with offensive rebounds and 3s. I am glad bubble wrap is back but how do we barely beat a team playing for the Flagg when we got up by 21 at one point. Man, that Sharpe would fit nicely on this team.

[mobilija]

Good lord, seems we've been scoring 2 and the Nets 3 the entire 4th quarter.

Where is Mazzulla ball when u need it!!!?!??

[Goldstar88]

Celtics only had 38 shot attempts from 3pt this tonight.

Better now than April 15.

I think they're gonna start to rotate who plays and who rests from here until the playoffs. I really believe Tuesday is gonna be a full Hospital Celtics game, because there's two days off until Tuesday AND another two days off after that for the next game, so essentially it'll be like a full week off between games.

I'm fine shutting down Jaylen for a bit now that Porzingis is back too.

1st time since Tatum's rookie year where the Celtics won a game when Tatum's +/- was -10 or worse in either the regular season or playoffs.

The Celtics could be playing the best team in the the nba or your local YMCA men?s team?they?ll get up 20+ and then blow the lead, just who they are. I know they?re capable of it but the only way they repeat is they take it up a notch or 2 once the playoffs start and keep that gear through the finals

[Redz]

I didn?t get to watch the game, but this one worried me.  Brooklyn has been competing hard no matter what lineup they throw out there.  I thought it would be a little easier when I saw Claxton was out (and Porzingis in).  Glad for the win.

I also missed the game being out at dinner but apparently he had a back spasm.

Close call

[Vermont Green]

Our starters (not counting Hauser since he is not really a starter) were 4-22 from 3.  I did not see any of the game.  Just missing shots or was BKN doing something on defense?

It appears that we did adjust and start taking it to the hoop more as we only ended up with 38 3PA.

I hope so. A win or loss to the Nets is pretty meaningless at this point and #2 seed is almost locked in. I would much prefer to see solid minutes for Queta and Craig (even Scheierman) as guys who could see spot minutes in the playoffs.
