Marcus does a lot of good things, but a lot of stupid things also. Breh, STOP fukkING SHOOTING THREES! I love his defense, and rebounding. His passing is good, but sometimes he gets crazy and turns it over. Can he drive or post dudes up please? What's the point of being stocky if you don't use your frame?

Jerebko is dogshyt, and has been all season. Luckily Amir Nowitzki showed up tonight.

One thing that bothers me about this team is the cheap ticky tack fouls they commit that gets the opposing team in the bonus with 5 minutes to go in the quarter. They need to stop reaching in when they don't grab the offensive board and just hustle back on defense.

Big win for the Celtics last night. Glad we were able to give the Bulls their first L of the season.

Here are some highlights:



We have a potential Eastern Conference Finals showdown against the Cavaliers. Let's remind LeBron why he had to leave Cleveland for Miami. :lolbron::troll::sas2:

Are we sure Smart is working hard to improve his game?

To be fair to the guy, he made a number of big shots last night. And his individual defense was stellar.

But his shot-selection is so frustrating to watch.

We definitely saw the best and worst of Marcus last night.

Can't be mad at the effort at all. We kept the game close without Horford, Crowder and Olynk. Jaylen is a dark-horse candidate for ROY. Avery Bradley is establishing himself as a serious 2-way threat and a serious MIP candidate. Isaiah just finds ways to score. We'll get one back on Cleveland.

Highlights from last night's game. We definitely had a few great stretches of play but we just couldn't overcome the Cavs without 3 of our major players.

In case you haven't seen this @SchoolboyC

"Essentially, the Celtics prioritized future cap space over keeping Young next season. The $2.8 million he would have made then will not go on the books, a reminder that every bit helps as the team attempts to clear enough room for a maximum contract this summer. While it would have been possible to trade Young -- and his future salary -- after picking up the option, the Celtics learned this fall the market for him was either slim or non-existent."
