Payton Pritchard is the best bench player in the NBA this season. How did he take such a big leap during his fifth year in the NBA? What makes his story even stranger is the fact that Pritchard demanded a trade two years ago because Boston barely played him at all.

  1. Celtics fans have always known how good Pritchard is. If all the starters would sit due to load management. You knew you were getting a Payton Prtichard masterclass.

  2. Just like with your video about Hali, the timing, when you release a video is funny. Pritchard just had 0 points.

  3. I don’t wanna be that typical NBA fan but most Celtics fans knew about PP for years now. It’s nice to see him get his flowers. Hard work beats talent all day everyday

  4. You don't need that much Height or athleticism to play defense, you just need that hustle and effort

    For example Curry and Dillard, Lamian Dillard wouldn't even chase someone to guard while Steph Curry are willing to play defensively and contest even if he knows that he can't do anything

  5. If Celtics stay healthy they will propably repeat bc their roster is so damn deep, too deep if you ask me… 😅

  6. In my opinion the reason why he's been so good this season is because of the buzz beaters he made in the playoffs last year, those plays maybe gave him confidence to take more shots and with that it came the buckets. Not saying he wasn't good before that, it just gave him confidence on his work

  7. He's got that Jeremy Lin feel to the hype around his game right now. I hope it works out better for him because Lin was done dirty. Still fun to watch him balling out against the league right now though.

  8. Unless players injured I don't see anyone beating Celtics in 7 game series, great team formation,good on front office

  9. They let Pritchard shoot those because there’s usually very few seconds on the clock and they need to get it up the whole court. Tatum takes the game winners. You’re painting a narrative that is false. I watch every Celtics game. Pritchard is an absolute animal and he’s nasty at buzzer beaters Shooting threes dribble penetration all that, but at the end of the game, the ball does in Tatum’s hand for better or worse

  10. Great video. I’m glad people are noticing pritchard. He’s getting his minutes now and damn he’s showing his worth

  11. That’s not completely true he’s not only playing against the other teams bench. You’re not 100% accurate there. He’s playing 25+ minutes a night. The other team doesn’t play their bench for the majority of the game do they????? And I’m pretty sure teams do know about Pritchard. Listen to. Thanalysis podcast.. He’s not a secret. He’s just that one extra thing that makes Boston too hard guard.

  12. I felt Pritchard was going to be a beast when I watched him in college at Oregon, the Celtics are Stacked. The Cavs nor anyone in the East is beating the Boston Celtics in a 7 game series in the Playoffs!! I'm Happy for Payton Pritchard and how well he is Ballin, great video Casey!!

  13. Here's the deal with am hoops
    He says someone bad : he scores 30+ the next game
    He says someone good : he scores 0 the next game
