It’s always fun to beat up the Heat… but today was a little different. I turned the tv off after the game and reminisced of all the classic battles the franchises had and I started feeling bad. But either way Miami hold that L
John if you go back and watch the game look at how bam did not want to attack queta. And if u do can u please speak on it.
Was very ugly especially early on. Tatum was 💩John, yes. But it was fun as hell watching Luke get 6 blocks and Pritchard just run shit. He’s got almost 80 pts in his last 3 games. Spoelstra even had some very kind words for Fast PP postgame. I like Drew. I honestly knew nothing about him until the last few weeks when I read up on him and he’s a very hard worker. That’s what I like about this team-from the Jays all the way down they work hard. Pritchard & Brown especially. Looks like we’ll finally get to see Smart go up against his former teammates on Saturday which should be fun. Thanks John! ☘️🔒
no competition at all
When Joe looks at his bench, he sees weapons for different situations, not as fodder for resting the starters.
John always coming up with the best Simpsons references.
Missed the chance of mentioning something like Joe having a problem with Pritchard's sideburns.
Always fun to beat the heat because of their rabid fan base! Last season, they were taunting the Celtics for being chokers. But now they're saying trade bam, jimmy, duncan and terry!
Payton is real Celtic fans
Joe M is a true strategist- uses the players for reasons – optimizes the game plan for the competition and to maximize vs the rules — too many coaches are complacent — he is a rare gem
I’ve said for a while Luke has the same body as Brooke Lopez. He should study Brooke Lopez, because Lopez and holiday Was a great combo if they can create that or find that in Luke just the defensive part, it would be a blessing. Gotta love Luke kornet
it’s crazy that the Celtics have three 7 Footers and two small ball centers

I’m curious if the fact that Tatum plays so many games is actually good for his health and keeps him this Iron Man or if it hurts long-term. You see a lot of load management and those guys seem to get hurt just as much as they did before they started to load manage if not more so I’m wondering if the more you play the healthier, your body is.

Peyton Pritchard. Most Improved Player? Nope. 6th Man of the Year? Nah.
MVP! MVP! MVP! 😂
I know it's been out a while but I love the new intro music!
Great defense by Luke he had Bam in jail
WINNING!!!!!💚☘☘☘
Not always going to be pretty, but winning ugly is an artform in an of itself. Epsecially in a rock fight with the Heat 🪨🔥💎
Drew Peterson got more length and size than I anticipated, brings solid energy (similar to Walsh). Kornet Kontest with the block part & Precious P doing his thing. Tatum gotta be better but all around glad to stack the win. Thx John ☘︎🔒
Sorru guys have to comment how excited I am , MY CELTICS WON NBA, my DODGERS WON WORLD SERIES , and my LA GALAXY ON THE VERGE ON WINNING MLS CUP ON SAT, and on each of those teams we have a really good chance to repeat !LETSSSSS F GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I think i'm one of the few people that have watched peyton pritchard since he was at west Linn years ago
if Bam played in the 2000"s when the power forward spot was stacked he would struggle guarding the good ones due to not having enough strength and size.
