The Boston Celtics Are Making History & It’s INSANE
Regardless of how they progress following this recording Boston going 2080 at home exactly halfway through the 2024 82 game grind is insane you’ll see a meticulous breakdown of every key to Boston’s obliteration the records they’re setting and the most important factor to this team’s success outside of
Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown who’s also not named Drew holiday christs porzingis Derek white or even who you may think it is the crypto scammer Payton Pritchard my answer to that question is one of many segments regarding the current NBA best Celtics that you have to stick around for first the community speak
Shout out goes to Quick clutch who says only players you can say are more clutch than Dame all time are MJ and Kobe Dame has more game-winning shots than any other player all time other than Kobe the buzzer beater stat is kind of cherry-picked compared to the
Game-winning shot stat I agree with you on the MJ and Kobe thing but I still think the buzzer beating shot stat for my last bid was an interesting one but leave your take on the question at the end of today’s video for a chance of both getting on the speaks board and
When free merch of your choosing Jason Tatum has been the best player in the association throughout the month of January as his 51% clip from 3point range is the best among any of this month’s top 20 point per game scor this stretch included dropping 45 over Boston’s fellow number one seated
Minnesota Timberwolves just over a week ago which was tied with Donovan Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers for the second highest single game point total in January against the NBA’s best defensive rating Tatum did have one early drive for an and one but three of his first four field goals were
Contested High arching deep range bombs as the game progressed he’d then however start tearing up the lane hesi In-N-Out cross combo gets towns reaching before a Euro Step beasts him out of the way heesy tween behind combo freezes Kyle Anderson or as they call him slow-mo at
The point of attack leading into another Euro but this time going left which gets Tatum around Nas Reed after this Spain pick and roll gets him switched onto towns Carl’s going to fall for this stop on a dime hesitation which opens up space for a dicey step Back we go again with Town switched onto him and also in this case slow mo stunning on the strong side a hesi inverted crossover to his left gets Jason downhill for a beastly Euro Step around two Minnesota Defenders remember it’s the best defense in the association
That Tatum’s working on he can make you forget that with how dominant he is empty side flare action with Horford said in the solid screen sees holiday’s Bullet Pass lead to Tatum pump baking and jabbing right directly after the catch he then suddenly fakes The Sweep through left instead attacks re’s Lead
Foot to his strong hand and it’s another forceful widely extended finish here he denies a Horford on ball screen and with the Wolves ball pressure ramped up Tatum’s able to attack the pursuing McDaniels on a 20° angle then power through him for the bucket around the top Defender still down five with
Under 2 minutes left the Wolves forget to change their pick and roll settings from switch to drop so towns again gets matched up with Tatum whose signature size up chains into a signature s step to cut to two takes it skipping ahead to OT and will’ll let
The elite Celtic crowd plus the goat Mike Gorman do the talking to the basket however then tied at 120 the Wolves weren’t done switching there so Tatum also wasn’t done there as this next size up leads into a Smitty which forces towns to commit contact that isn’t called but Tatum perfectly
Responds to that with one momentum cross right and another momentum cross left to fo towns just nasty in ot’s final minute following white and holiday trap in Edwards resulting in Drew getting a game saving steel Minnesota chases the ball back in transition doesn’t communicate leaving Tatum wide open for triple
Number six on the night sealing one of Boston’s most impressive W’s on the season like the rest of his bag Tatum’s rebounding has also been been at the best level of his career as his three 13 rebound double doubles are the most at his position and tied for the third most
Among all players in January but before covering another Celtics top weapon who’s been terrifyingly just as good as Jason this month in other news for the crypto Thief Payton Pritchard he may have given himself some bad press by just pulling off another crypto scamming Heist that was even called out by his
Own teammates being Chris DS porzingis viu andos set on Instagram but given fast PP is leading the Celtics in plus minus in this calendar month I had to write a segment about him PR has recently been working his way up the ladder in terms of top bench producers
In the game of basketball as the Oregon alumni’s four double digit scoring performances over the last six games are tied for third most among players Off the Bench over that span for Jaylen Brown how he’s been going off on the NBA recently can simply be explained by mentioning that both jaylen’s field goal
Percentage and field goals made per game in 2024’s opening month are the best output on the Celtics JB’s a different type of focus and when he’s playing with that tenacious anger can resemble a top 10 to 20 player in the association for the first year Celtic Drew holiday it
Was good to see the champ rack up a second straight game of scoring 22 plus points as this helped make up for the loss of tingis pingis similarly to that scoring Drew’s defense is also starting to resemble his prime Milwaukee buckes self some of his recent clamps are
Coming up later on in this video in terms of the depth up front for Boston Celtics backup center Luke cornette gets underrated due to the fact that he’s overlooked by fan favorite on a two-way contract namish kada whose Celtics Nation argu should be in the rotation having both Luke and kada at your
Disposal for the playoffs would be a luxury if Stevens is willing to convert Nim’s two-way deal given the injury history of porzingis and Horford having a ton of mileage racked up stepping up for the absent due to knee inflammation porzingis in the starting five against San Antonio aside from getting Dunked On
By wanyama cornette was productive in a hefty 30 minutes of action racking up what was tied for a season most three blocks in his second start of the Year Luke also snagged a game high nine rebounds and was a game fifth best plus 11 for the man caught up in cornet’s log
Jam kada checked in late to abruptly record six points eight rebounds and two blocks in just 12 minutes to be fair he nearly fouled out racking up five personals in at Short span former Raptor product of Syracuse in the Toronto born OA brette made an appearance to drop
Seven points in 7 minutes completing a flashy dime from JB even checking in for Boston against the Spurs was to having been progressing in the g-league 38th overall pick in rookie Jordan Walsh as Stevens recalled him before the game and he suited up for his first few minutes
Of non- preseason NBA basketball Jordan may not have gotten the score sheet but with the main Celtics down in the miners Walsh’s 15p point eight rebound per game averages on 41% three-point shooting has been encouraging like it’s been for JD Davidson developing close to the team in
Maine has been huge for Walsh a game before the Spurs matchup Boston displayed their potential defensively north of the Border watch how Horford and holiday stay solid as quickly fakes this cross screen before Drew picks up on the slipping Porter Horford cuts off the post entry to force the kick out to
Barrett who Tatum stays in front of and forces the kick to shudder who porzingis recovers back to to force the swing to the now traded cakam and the close out from the having flown over Horford Smothers Pascal’s attempt forcing an airball after the Raptors run this Zoom action which features a handoff right
Back to the initial passer watch the on ball pressure of Pritchard and the smart help of porzingis to force McDaniels to beat them twice by first rotating onto Dennis and then stunning on to Barnes which leads to Jaylen making an ill-advised attack and getting swatted
By Tatum this time in a 23 Zone Horford and cornette sandwich cakam on the back side to neutralize his cut of the basket forcing Barnes to toss it to Young whose handoff attempt is shut down by the pressuring fast PP Barnes instead receives it on Young’s kick out and it’s
Horford’s positioning and lateral quickness plus Tatum’s backside activity that forced Scotty into chucking it out of bounds on a separate note the most important winning contributor for the Seas outside of JT or JB despite weird Celtics Twitter relating His Image to aircat has to be Man In Charge Joe
Missoula who’s breaking the records of some alltime great head coaches throughout NBA history I mentioned this in my video a little while back covering Derek white but Joe’s maintained his number one ranking among coaches with at least 100 games played in winning percentage he has a great cast of
Assistant coaches but Joe is the current Coach of the Year favorite by a mile in my opinion based off the fact that he’s done a stellar job in all coaching aspects from chemistry management to rotations to assistant coach utilization to Playbook implementation to preaching defensive fundamentals all boxes are
Checked for Joe coaching the Celtics to both the NBA’s second best defensive rating and offensive rating Boston’s the only team to even be top five in each of those crucial Advanced stats let alone top two for a chance at next video shout out let me know down below the most
Important factor to the Celtics outside of Tatum m brown in your opinion def flow signing off
How’s Jayson Tatum meticulously breaking down defenses? Who’s the most important contributor to Boston’s 20-0 start at home other than Tatum or Brown? Stay tuned for that and a lot more you won’t want to miss

Was waiting for this one 🔥🔥
This is our season baby let’s go😤😤
I can’t wait for my lakers to sweep these dudes in the finals lakers in 4💜💛.
Honestly, the Celtics have been winning so much this season that it never occurred to me how crazy 20-0 at home is
You can say it's KP and the spacing he brings to the table. You can say it's D White and his ability to be the floor general. Or Holiday and his ability to be a little big man. But at the end of the day, it's Al Horford's voice that has led this team for a long time, and they looked lost when they didn't have it for a few years.
Why you got to do Pritchard like that in the intro🤣🤣🥶
I’d like to say the biggest contributor to winning for the Celtics is KP. You can tell the huge difference on both ends of the floor when he’s there vs when he’s not. He’s a matchup nightmare and teams have to choose with what they’re willing to live with when he’s out there and it’s even harder during tight games. The difference between this years team and last year is KP.
yeah great now we are cursed
Clippers will beat them at home first. That game is coming soon
OSHAE BRISSETT A DOG
crypto P at it again lol
For the all the stats and praise for JT and JB, also remember that both have specifically said (and shown) that they’re currently sacrificing individual stats to concentrate on team wins.
outside JB & JT has been dwhite. He's consistent and timely offense flies under the radar until the Cs need someone to step up when the jays or kp go cold. His 1-1 and team defense is tenacious and smart. His decision making is his biggest asset; he always makes the best play, not just the right play. Him and Jrue have massive effects on winning, contributing in ways left off stat sheets. Pushing the ball up on breaks, hockey assists, setting decent picks, knowing their rotations so well they can cheat and recover, knowing when to be aggressive and when to move the ball. It's like having another Al Horford.
Larry Bird is the most clutch player in NBA history. Whoever that was didn't even have him on the list. It's funny how Larry is just erased from every conversation about the greats. It's sad to see.
Payton Pritchard is legit. Excellent shooter and his handles are exceptional. Where he really stands out is his playmaking and hustle which make-up for his short stature. I'm glad he's getting his minutes. Derrick White and Jrue Holiday are the best backcourt
Important factor for this years Celtics are, unlike the last three years, the team avoids ill advises forced shot at the end of the shot clock, the team really had what it takes to close out games.
🔥🔥🔥
He's only 25 not even in his prime yet. People are sleepy on Tatum
Best clutch shooter ever Larry Bird not even close then MJ then Kobe ..just end game clutch shot
Still waiting for incoming heat fan who will brag about the past and still living on it.
JT is underrated. He'll drop a quite 30/10/6, and people are like, "Meh, that's what he does." All the dude does is win.
I'm not sure what "Celtics Nation" is, but I can state for a fact that they aren't clamoring for Quetta to get more rotation minutes. That's not a thing. Kornet is fine. Greg Kite 2.0.
Good video otherwise.
If we were the Warriors or the Lakers, the whole world would know about it. But it’s all good, we like being underestimated 😎
