Boston Celtics Game Day Recap

The Celtics beat the Pacers 129-124 and continue to find ways to win. This was a game that we gave up 31 second chance pts that kept the Pacers in this game but the Celtics buckled down in the 4th and came up with some huge plays on both sides of the ball to pull out the win. All of our starters were huge in this game which is key when you're down Horford and Kornet. While the starters were gr...

The Celtics beat the Pelicans 118-112 after being down by as many as 17pts. This was a game where we played with no Porzingis and Kornet which left our depth at big pretty limited. With that being said, JB and Tatum were pretty solid throughout this game. Tatum did struggle turning the ball over 7 times though. This was arguably the worst offensive game of Derrick White's life through 3 quarte...

The Celtics were smoked 115-96 by the Clippers and this game truly wasn't as close as the score shows. The Celtics were down by as many as 36 in this game and we saw and all bench unit all 4th quarter. People will complain about the amount of 3s that were taken in this game but the majority of them were wide open. When the 3s weren't falling, they did take it to the rim and they missed the...

The Celtics absolutely demolished the Heat 143-110. As far as game play is concerned, there is not a single negative you can take from today's game. We got excellent performances from the entire starting 5 along with a lot of our bench. The Celtics shooting tonight was unmatched by anything we have seen in a long time. They shot 64% from the field, 55% from 3 and 95% from the FT line! Everythi...

The Celtics take down the Mavs 119-110 and improve to 33-10 on the season. This was an absolute masterclass from both of the Jays. Tatum led the way scoring wise with 38pts and JB was right behind him with 35pts. What I loved about this game from them was that the majority of their scoring came at the rim or FT line. They both did a great job of taking advantage of the mismatch against both Luka a...

The Celtics beat the Rockets 116-107 improving to 33-10 on the season. This was another game where the Celtics came out scorching hot scoring 70pts in the first half on 10-24 from 3 with 19ast on 26fgm. The ball was moving and guys were hitting shots. It definitely slowed down in the second half but they were able to pull it out with some incredible performances along the way. Porzingis led the wa...

The Celtics fall to the Nuggets 102-100 in a maddening game. The Celtics played pretty well defensively in this game but were ridiculously inconsistent on the offensive end. Holding the Nuggets to just 102 is solid but there is way to much firepower on the Celtics to only score 100. Porzingis came out of the gates unstoppable scoring the first 11pts and 15 of our first 20 but only ended the game w...

The Celtics destroy the Spurs 117-98 and improve to 20-0 at home!! This game was never really in question. They got out to an early lead and never looked back. These types of games are fun because you get to keep starters minutes low and see what some of the bench is capable of. Holiday, JB and Tatum were all really good in this one but one of the stars for me was Kornet! With Porzingis and White...

The Celtics beat the Raptors 105-96 and improve to 31-9 on the season! This game was led by the Stock Exchange! Jrue Holiday and Derrick White were both fantastic in this one. They both scored 22pts with Holiday adding 6reb and 7ast as well. This was one of the better Holiday games we've seen in a while. Outside of the excellent backcourt performance, we did see Horford play outstanding and Ta...

The Celtics bounced back after a tough loss to the Bucks in a major way. The beat the Rockets 145-113 in Ime Udoka's return to the Garden and improved to 19-0 at home extending their franchise record. This was another masterclass from the Jays. JB was insanely efficient with 32pts on just 11-15 from the field along with some incredible defense. Tatum also added 27pts before he was ejected afte...

The Celtics were embarrassed in Milwaukee tonight 135-102. This was the second night of a back to back after going to OT against a very tough and physical Timberwolves team and some would say this was a scheduled loss. While that may be true, losing in this fashion is tough to watch. The Celtics were down 75-38 at halftime and that is when Mazzulla decided to call it quits and went with an all ben...

The Celtics beat the Timberwolves 127-120 in OT and improve to 18-0 at home which is a franchise record!! This game looked over as the Celtics were down 9 with 4:09 left and then down 7 with 2:12 but the Celtics never gave up and went on a 14-3 run taking a 111-109 lead in the 4th. The game did go into OT but it was all Celtics in OT. Both of the Jays did everything in OT to earn this win. Tatum t...

The Celtics fall to the Pacers 133-131 without Tatum or Hauser. JB was unbelievable in this one with a season high 40pts and a great pullup midrange that he was fouled on that should've been the game winner HOWEVER, the refs overturned the call leading to the Celtics loss. What makes this worse even harder to swallow is the fact that Hield went up to Mazzulla at the end of the game and admitte...

The Celtics held the Pacers to a season-low in pts in a 118-101 victory! This was an impressive win. Tatum, White and Hauser found themselves in foul trouble and Porzingis left the game 6 minutes in and they still came out with a big win. This game was eerily similar to a lot of our games last year where the Jays had the carry the bulk of our scoring load. They combined for 69pts between the two o...

The Celtics dominated the Jazz 126-97 tonight improving to 17-0 at home!! This game was over as soon as it started. The Celtics got out to a 10-0 start and never looked back. They stretched this lead all the way up to 36 at one point in this game. They hit 100pts with 3 minutes left in the third and at that point, every single starter was already sitting for the remainder of the game. Tatum led th...

The Celtics lost to the Thunder 127-123 in a game they fell down by as many as 18pts. This game looked like it was over and the Celtics put on a show in the 4th quarter mounting an excellent comeback that fell just short. This Thunder team is not the same team as years past. They currently rank 6th in Offensive Rating and 5th in Defensive Rating and have been a very fun team to watch. With that be...

The Celtics destroyed the Spurs 134-101 and ended 2023 on a high note! Everyone played exceptionally well and it is certainly fun to watch Wembanyama do his thing out there. Both of the Jays played really well in this one, Derrick White heard All Star chants and the bench played really well. This was the perfect ending to 2023. The Celtics are walking into 2024 with the best record in the NBA incl...

The Celtics escaped with a 120-118 win over the Raptors despite having no Tatum, Porzingis and Horford!! It certainly wasn’t a perfect win as the Celtics turned the ball over 14 times allowing 22pts off those turnovers BUT they pulled off a very impressive win. As good as Queta has been at times during Kornets absence, Kornet got the start tonight and he showed up big time in this game. He ended u...

The Celtics came into this game as 17pt favorites over the Pistons who lost 27 straight games coming into this game and squeaked out a 128-122 win in OT. Porzingis was an absolute game changer in this one with 35pts taking advantage of every mismatch and getting big bucket after big bucket. Despite a bad first half for White, he turned it around and put together an excellent game as well. This was...

The Celtics beat down the Lakers 126-115 on Christmas Day and improve to an NBA Best 23-6!! This was a rollercoaster of a game in the sense that the Celtics watched an 18pt lead turn into a 2pt deficit over a fairly short span but turned the jets on in the 3rd quarter and outscored the Lakers by 8 and maintained a healthy lead the rest of the way. This was another very well balanced win for this t...

After dropping that embarrassing game to the Warriors, the Celtics bounced back with two blow out victories. Tonight was a 145-108 win over the Clippers!! Jayson Tatum despite being questionable for the game, did in fact play and was excellent throughout leading the team in scoring with 30pts but he was not alone. This was another game that was very well balanced with 6 players in double digits. J...

On the second night of a back to back with no Tatum, Horford or Kornet, the Celtics destroy the Kings 144-119. If you like offense, this was the game for you! The Celtics shot 52% from 3 making 22 of them and the Kings made 21 of them shooting 47%. This wasn’t even a game where the defense looked horrible but the shot making was unbelievable. The Celtics had a very well balanced attack tonight wit...

The Celtics lost to the Warriors 132-126 in OT. This was a game that shouldn't have been close. The Celtics led this one by as many as 17 in this one because of excellent games from JB and White. They were pushing the pace, getting out in transition and forcing Curry into mismatches and then it all stopped. The Celtics got outscored by 11 in that 4th quarter and a lot of it came down to poor r...

The Celtics blow out the Magic 114-97 and complete a very tough 4 game home stand while keeping their undefeated home streak going at 14-0. This was a JB masterclass capped with a team high 31pts and team high 6ast on 60/62/100 shooting splits. As good as JB was, he wasn’t alone. We saw great contributions from the majority of the team today. We ended the night shooting 47% from 3 and had all 5 of...

The Celtics played this game without Porzingis, Horford and Kornet and blew out a Magic team that has given the Celtics trouble as of late. With all 3 of our big men out, we suited Queta up for the game and even started Lamar Stevens at the 5 in this one and the Celtics just took advantage of speed all night long. When you are missing 3 rotational players, you need your stars to step up but you al...
