Knicks are chilling through 3 quarters till Jayson Christopher Tatum decided that playtime is over
KP is good for Boston
Mad props to Hauser tonight. He kept us in the game during our struggles in the early quarters. Great to see the Celtics come out of the half strong to end the third and play even better ball in the fourth.
Tatum was cold for 2 quarters and then ends with 35 going crazy. **MVP HIM**
LOVE holding teams under 100
This Jayson Tatum kid is pretty good
FUCK THE KNICKS
TATUM MVP SEASON
At the end I was just rooting to hold them under 100
Back to back games holding the opponent under 100 pts
Humbly is one of the best players in the world
Stop giving Tatum techs. Please, we hate it *soo* much!
Tatum took over the game in the 4th quarter. That’s my MVP!
Y’all need to chill with the overreactions when we’re down a few points 16 minutes into the game. This team is really fucking good. But not every game is going to be a blowout immediately.
Knuck the Ficks
first knick game in a while where Quickley didn’t go off, so that was nice
Tatum looking like MVP. Our defense insane. JAYLEN highest +/-
Porzingis beautiful. I love this team
Oh this game was fun
That last 3 from Tatum was just mean 😂
PULL UP SHOOT JAYSON TATUM
80-3
Because we’ll blow a game to the Orlando magic for some reason
Jaylen good pass to bad pass ratio (JGPtBP) – an exclusive Celtics subreddit metric: 2.00
I think this is elite but iono yet lol
Didn’t look great in the 1st half but boy was that 4th quarter a thing of beauty. Tatum is on a different level this year
So basically the Knicks did everything they wanted to. They played physical, they slowed the game down, hit crazy buzzer beating shots, shot 43% from 3… and they lost by 16. This Celtics team is a juggernaut.
That was amazing. Tatum did a heat check, it went in, so he went fucking nuclear.
Love seeing Tatum getting angry and taking over like that. MVP shit
Watching the Knicks late implosion (especially Josh Harts) was very funny to watch lmao. This Knicks team hates us so much man, Brunson and Randle were already screaming at the very first minute of the game. Then when we started to pull away Brunsons facial expressions looked exactly like Syndrome in the Incredibles when hes tearing Mr Incredible posters down from his wall
Like relax man, lmao. Ive seen the Knicks in other games, theyre not nearly as emotional against other teams as they are against us, its corny.
Enjoyed almost every bit of that game tho, great win for us
Tatum with the 4th quarter switch flip to Assassin Mode
MVP caliber stuff
Jays with 13 assists works for me
Jaylen with the higher +/- of the Jays is nice
Dude this team is so fun to watch. Knicks played rly well and celtics kept with them for those three quarters without going on any crazy runs or anything. Then the takeover in the 4th by tatum is just different. Love to watch this team. those boys look good.
I rly want to see Brown level up his two man game with KP and maybe Al. I think that will be good to get him involved when hes not in his bag.
Knicks were definitely running out of gas in the 4th and then Tatum absolutely obliterated them. He was cooking in the isos against Hart all night and his 3s finally fell at the end.
I hope the Celtics close with Porzingis-Tatum pick and rolls every close game.
Without porzinGod we are much less lethal! hes insane from mid Arc, 3pt range deep!!!!!🔥🔥😮💨😮💨
This was the perfect game imo. Tight enough to make me be slightly stressed, and then 4th Quarter Awesomeness to make me feel super happy
Tingus Pingus 7-for-11, only slightly above his usual shooting.
4 shot-clock violations for the Knicks; the ultimate sign of team defense.
KP and Jrue are fantastic pickups. Aside from their obvious talents, they’re both just so calm and composed. This team needed that, and I think it’ll pay off big-time in the playoffs where the anxiety is heightened to an insane degree.
I’m just glad Tatum got going finally so we could rest Hauser in the 4th.
