Boston Celtics Game Day Recap

THE CELTICS SWEEP THE PACERS AND ARE HEADING TO THE NBA FINALS!!!! Jaylen Brown won the Eastern Conference Finals MVP deservedly so. He was spectacular this series and in this game. He had 10pts in the 4th quarter and a couple of monster defensive plays down the stretch as well as the assist to White for the 3 that put the Celtics up 105-102. After missing out on an All-Defensive nod and and All-N...

The Celtics found themselves down 18pts in this game and mounted an incredible comeback to win 114-111! Tatum led the way scoring wise with 36 but it was Al Horford who stuck out the most to me. He had 23pts on 7-12 from deep and seemed to hit every big shot we needed from him. Holiday certainly struggled from the field for most of this game but had a huge And 1 to go up 112-111 and then a monster...

The Celtics blow out the Pacers 126-110 taking a commanding 2-0 series lead. Jaylen Brown led the way with 40pts and was damn near unstoppable in this game on both sides of the ball. Jrue Holiday played another outstanding game with both Tatum and White playing well in the second half. They were both pretty horrible in the first but they turned on the jets in the 2nd half lol. While JB should be t...

WOW the Celtics beat the Pacers 133-128 in OT taking a 1-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals. This game was as nerve wracking and fun as it gets. The Celtics were down 115-110 with just under 2 minutes to play and forced an OT after JB deflected an inbounds off Siakam giving them the ball down 3 with 8 seconds left. He then went on to hit a ridiculously hard corner 3 tying the game forc...

The Celtics beat the Cavs 113-98 and win the series 4 games to 1 advancing to their 3rd straight Eastern Conference Finals! This game was played without Mitchell, Allen and LeVert for the Cavs and it was probably closer than it should have been BUT it doesn't matter how you win in the playoffs as long as you win! This game was dominated by Al Horford. He had 22pts breaking out of his 3pt slump...

The Celtics beat the Cavs 109-102 and take a 3-1 series lead giving themselves a chance to close it out on our home court on Wednesday! About an hour before tip, news spread that the Cavs were going to be without Donovan Mitchell and this game did not go the way that Celtics fans were expecting. With that being said, give the Cavs some credit because they put together a solid game without their bi...

The Celtics beat the Cavs 106-93 and take a 2-1 series lead! Both of our superstars stepped it up big in this game. JB scored 28pts along with 9reb on an insanely efficient 13-17 from the field. Tatum, although he was less efficient, scored 33pts along with 13reb and 6ast and had a massive footprint in this win. While both of those guys were great, that wouldn't have been enough to beat this C...

After a blowout victory in Game 1, the Celtics come out and lay an egg losing 118-94 to the Cavs and the series is now tied 1-1 heading into Cleveland. White went from looking like an All Star to going 1-8 from 3. Tatum and JB were less than efficient in this game as well shooting just 7-17 from the field and JB went 0-6 from beyond the arc. Both of them were aggressive getting downhill which is g...

The Celtics cruised to a 120-95 win over the Cavs taking a 1-0 series lead. JB and Derrick White were both incredible in this one. JB started the game off hot with 15 first quarter pts on his way to a team high 32! White continued his hot stretch scoring another 25. In a game with no Porzingis, we also saw some incredible minutes from Kornet which should make Celtics fans feel really good. While J...

The Celtics beat the Heat 118-84 and win the series 4 games to 1!!! This game was tied 11-11 and the Celtics went on a 21-5 run and never looked back. We got contributions everywhere in this game. With no Porzingis, Horford was slated into the starting lineup and Kornet got a lot of bench minutes at the 5 and they were both great. Kornet did as good a job on Bam as anyone in this series. White had...

The Celtics beat the Heat 102-88 in another masterful defensive performance. This game really had 2 storylines. The first was the play of Derrick White. He was sensational in this game almost single handedly carrying the Celtics offense with a career high 38pts on super efficient shooting splits. The other storyline however wasn't a good one. Kristaps Porzingis left the game with Right Calf Ti...

The Celtics destroyed the Heat 104-84 and take back home court advantage. This was one of those hard nose gritty defensive wins that Celtics fans have been clamoring for. After giving up a Heat franchise record 23 made 3pt shots in Game 2, the Celtics held the Heat to just 28 3pt attempts in this one. They made it an emphasis to run the Heat off the 3pt line and it totally threw their offense out...

The Celtics fall to the Heat 111-101 and this was an ugly one. After blowing out the Heat from beyond the arc last game, the script was flipped and it was the Heat who had a historic shooting night. The Heat went 23-43 from beyond the arc while the Celtics only shot 12-32. Shooting 38% from 3 is perfectly fine but there is no world where the Celtics should only be taking 32 3pt shots with the amou...

The Celtics beat the Heat 114-94 and roll to a 1-0 series lead!!!! Tatum recorded his first career playoff triple double but we got contributions everywhere. Mazzula stuck to his normal rotations with Horford, Pritchard and Hauser off the bench and got solid contributions from everybody 1-8 in this one. While Tatum may have been the best player on the court in this game, Porzingis may have had the...

The Heat without Jimmy Butler trounced the Bulls to become the 8 seed securing a first round matchup with the Celtics! Why will this year be different than last year? The easy answer in the personnel on both teams is drastically different. For the Celtics, the addition of Holiday and Porzingis means that the Celtics can now play 5 out making the Heat Zone almost impossible to play. For the Heat, w...

This game was bittersweet to say the least. While it won't be the final game we hear from Mike Gorman, it was his final regular season game and the Celtics sure made it memorable. They honored him throughout the entire game with pictures of him on every seat, dedicating the home broadcast booth to him and shining him with countless endorsements and Thank You's from Celtics greats. The Celt...

The Celtics beat the Hornets 131-98 and improve to 63-18 on the season. With this win, they will now end the season with under 20 losses which is an amazing milestone but they will also end the season without losing 3 straight games! We played this one without our whole top 6 and we still managed to destroy the Hornets with Pritchard leading the way but also getting major contributions from our G...

The Celtics lose to the Knicks 118-109 in another ugly loss. Give credit to the Celtics bench for outscoring the Knicks 38-18 in the 4th and making this seem like a close game but the Knicks led this one by as many as 31pts. It was another ugly performance from this team but they got out of it injury free which seems to be their only focus right now. The Celtics proved all season that they are cap...

The Celtics beat the Trail Blazers 124-107 and improve to 62-16 on the season which is the 6th best record in franchise history! JB scored his 10,000th career point in the process and was super efficient adding 26pts on 10-17 from the field. Pritchard continued to play at a very high level adding 20pts and 8ast and led this all bench unit to a 4th quarter victory! The Celtics were absolutely destr...

The Celtics narrowly escape an 18pt 4th quarter blown lead and win 101-100 because of an Xavier Tillman floater at the end! This was a game that meant absolutely nothing to the Celtics as they already clinched best record in the NBA but meant a lot to the Kings who are battling in play in territory right now. JB and Derrick White both sat out of this game and then we saw Holiday, Horford and Porzi...

The Celtics beat the Thunder 135-100 improving to 60-16 on the season and have officially clinched the Top Seed in the NBA with 6 games remaining!! We saw an absolutely dominating performance from Porzingis from start to finish which was great to see. It was by far his best performance since returning from his injury. Tatum was great throughout this one too. JB really struggled through the first 3...

The Celtics beat the Hornets 118-104 and improve to 59-16 on the season!! The flamethrower Sam Hauser had 25 pts in this win on 7-11 from deep and was a catalyst off the bench but he wasn't alone. Tatum also had 25pts and we saw really strong performances from Horford, Porzingis and White as well. The Celtics didn't shoot particularly well from beyond the arc at just 35% but they defended...

The Celtics beat the Pelicans 104-92 and snap their 2 game losing skid. The Celtics came out of the gates sluggish and were outscored 37-28 in the first quarter. They allowed 9pts off their 4 turnovers and 10 fast break pts in that first quarter. The Celtics clamped down after that though and outscored the Pelicans 31-20 in the second and 24-11 in the third building up a 22pt lead that they coaste...

The Celtics lose to the Hawks 123-122 in OT... Dejounte Murray scored 44pts in this game but despite what those numbers might say, his shooting splits were horrible, he just happened to take 44 shots lol. The Celtics played pretty well on the offensive end but they lost this game on the glass. They gave up 17 offensive rebounds that led to what felt like a million second chance pts. The Celtics ha...
