Chris Forsberg, Brian Scalabrine and Drew Carter join Tom Giles to offer instant reaction and analysis following the Boston Celtics’ 108-105 win against the Toronto Raptors. Despite a poor second-half performance from Boston, and a huge surge by the Raptors, Derrick White sunk a clutch three-pointer with under 30 seconds to play, which ultimately proved to be the difference for Boston. Later, Abby Chin catches up with Kristaps Porzingis in an exclusive 1-on-1 interview following the win.

Boston winning🏆
An ugly win, but still a W! It'd be fun to meet Toronto in the first round…
Tough W. ☘️💪
Derrick white saved them again tonight. In derrick white we trust.
Too many 3s in this game. Not enough post-ups or off-bal cuts. Defense has to be better. Lots of hands down. Low energy too.
Derrick White has truly been the unofficial G.O.A.T of the Celtics since they have signed him. Funny that the games he was gone in this season, we lost.
Once again, we need to find some more great role players for the bench, we don't have enough weapons on the second unit
I need a D white jersey asap
different player every night!
Even when we play average we still winning. Cheat code Celtics ❤️
Glad C's got the win but the offense in that second half wasn't up too par with what we've seen by them to many possession's with no moment and just taking bad 3's and the fact they gave up 4 straight 3's in the start of that 3rd was just weird it really felt like last season where they would get a bit too relax and give up leads but they executed when it matters at least.
These courts need to go. They are dangerous and terrible for television.
Definitely another game we lose last year.
Glad to see the Celtics find other options in close games, besides JT or JB.
I don't like giving up 16 points leads but the Celtics didn't fold.
am l the only one that noticed DWhite lead the Cs in scoring for 3 quarters vs the sixers even tho Joe took him out at the end of the 1st?
That 3 made possible by JB for selling that cut good. But of course, DWhite the savior.
Scal is right , the driving inside just to whip back out is a bit outta hand with this squad , they need to figure that out!
Good team finds a way to win, tonite the C's is the one!
Sometimes you gotta win ugly they did it
Let's not forget D white hororics during last year playoffs against Miami when he made the last minute layup by far the best underrated trade we picked up from the Spurs is truly paying off now we must lock him down long term.
Love this combo
Derrick White deserves every PENNY 2024 summer if he re-sign
Way to many 3's , but that is the way the entire NBA is these days. I miss the old days when the low post game was the norm.
We alllll need to thank the spurs lol gave us super saiyan d white
We were -7.5 wasnt even worried i knew celtics will win 😂 then raps on ats 😅
Love smarty but playing D White during crunch time this season instead is way much better offensively.. Defensively, not much difference as well..
No fear, D White! ☘️
what is wrong with his hair?
Derrick Right still undefeated on the season.
We played really soft tonight. Even with the win, it wasn’t convincing. Lucky at best.
Too many 3s. It shouldn’t be half of the teams shot.
Drive to the paint. Draw some fouls & get FTs. This coaching method & game style is horrible. Very predictable & stale. Lack versatility. 3s, 3s, 3s, 3s and that’s all
Kinda blew the huge lead but at least they hang on till the end.
Derrick "The Bald Mamba" White strikes again. ☘️🔥
White is the man! I heard a bunch of warriors fans talking tonite and one said "we should just go trade for Derrick White and Horford, they would be a good fit with Curry" Apparently they thought Klay Thompson and Draymond Green for White and Al would be reasonable🤣 People throw around the most delusional trade scenarios. They have no idea how much Brad and all of Boston value what White and Big Al do for this team.
Dwhite finals MVP and future hofer
☘️🍀💪🏿
EXTEND DERRICK WHITE
😂😂😂😂 it's Boston Celtics guys not New England cheateriots …
Everyone talks about Derrick White, true playmaker on that play was Jrue Holiday!
Tatum and PP bricks keep it close. And the 4 straight 3s after half time? Man that’s ugly
JT was very inefficient! He kept on firing 3 point shots instead of settling for high percentage shots.
How many players upon hearing a reporter's question take a pause to think and go "good question" before answering. I like this guy. Love that he leads the league in techs as well. He's a keeper.
We need more 3s😂😂😂
ANOTHER GREAT VICTORY FOR THE CELTS!!!!
THE GRIZZLIES, TOMORROW NIGHT!!! 😀👍✌
Maybe smokin'-hot Amina will be back!!
Thats it
💚
Porzingis hit some big shots late
D. White for Most Improved Player
DERRICK WHITE IS THE GREEN LANTERN!!!😉😉😉
I love the wins… I’m really not a fan of the bombs-away-mentality though, especially late in games. If this team pulls the same crap as last year just hucking up 3’s and letting their mid range and attacking fall by the wayside and then isn’t there when they need it. I don’t know if Mazzulla gets it, I really don’t.
