I think everyone agrees run ‘n gun bball is lousy, but if there’s an open, take the shot. The Celtics are (usually) great at finding the open man and every position can shoot … including some on the bench

Yeah when you are open then sure shoot it.. For the most part... Celtics still need to drive the lane and score in the paint and they are starting to do that more it seems

watching JT and Luke master the pick and roll this season has been kool … add Pritchard’s charging the basket and they have new options from last year

Fin on the regular season.

61-21.

Relatively healthy going into the playoffs.

Right where we want to be going for the 2-peat.

… sooo … was this dogfight with the Magic a help or hinder to the Cs going forward? They certainly learned how to play a different game , but did that throw them too far off of what got them here? …
I hope they get to play the thunder now more than ever just to see how the two will match up with that OK defense …

Orlando is tough... that was a good series, and the C's did well to put them away in 5.

The (minor, hopefully all minor) injuries are concerning. But it is what it is.

I imagine whoever we play next... to some extent it will feel like we're running with the wind to our back when we're on offense.

When healthy, the Magic are easily a top-5 defense in the NBA.

They def could use Holiday back … the rest will do the others a lotta good

Let’s hope Orlando didn’t sell anyone the blueprint … I fear OKC already has it

It looked like a perfect setup against the Cs with the Magic having the best D in the league against the 3s …

JT was outstanding

They should have played the bench more
