INSTANT REACTION: Celtics’ depth on display in impressive win over Jazz

White quick trigger oh yeah Derek white have a night welcome in Celtics post game live Scout Chris forsburg Amina Smith here with you the Celtics dominate the Utah Jazz 123 to 107 the Celtics they do it when they’re down three starters forsberg what does that say about this

Celtics team now three and2 on this five game Road Trip yeah there also it just doesn’t surprise me anymore when it doesn’t matter who’s out there you’re going to get a complete effort from the guys that are available someone’s going to go up a level Derek White’s gonna

Shake off the Bad shooting I think it was 1 for 14 beyond the three-point arc on this trip before tonight boom waterf founded level and off they went but like it doesn’t matter who’s out there someone’s going to give it give it to you you know what I really liked about

This and this is not just one game for me it’s two game back toback games where you’re finishing a trip you want to make it a positive trip and everyone plays with tremendous energy Utah made a run just like Portland made a run Celtics responded I thought it was a great win

And forberg you mentioned a big night for Derek white he’s with Abby chin after this win Derek second night of a back toback oh are you guys doing an interview I didn’t notice I hadn’t seen uh you know Derek a white kill Jazz like that since

Ryan Gosling in la la land it was a pretty sweet moov he was just shooting every shot and it was awesome I do enjoy Ryan Gosling what kind of Rhythm did you find knocking down seven threes in this game uh I don’t know I mean I’ve been

Struggling a little bit and uh I told my dad I was just going to let it fly and that’s what I did today you guys on the second night of a back to back as I was saying come in here playing at altitude without three

Of your top six they cut it to two and you guys went on a 20 to nothing run what did this one take they’re a good team um they never give up um obviously well well coach sh out Hardy but uh we just stayed with it made plays and uh

It’s a good road win Derek all five guys who started this game finished in double figures and then you got Payton you also have X and O’Shea coming off the bench and pulling down rebounds how deep is this team yeah uh I mean we’ve been

Saying it all year but I mean those guys put in a lot of work and they’re always ready for us so um shout out to everybody for staying ready and we got a lot of trust in them they do so many little things for us finally you guys

Closed this road trip out with a winning record three and two what do you like best about the way what you’ve gotten back to over these last three I’m we just trying to get better each game um I mean obviously we’ve been on the road

For a little bit and uh just trying to get better I mean playing good teams having fun with it so Ryan Gosling you’re not just Ken then are you not not for this team uh I’m honestly I haven’t I haven’t seen L LA of land or Barbie no

I was I was doing a Barbie reference Barbie I have seen Barbie I I don’t just kid I’m kidding thank you congratulations I appreciate it that turned into movie trivia very quickly Drew Carter and also Eddie House joining us live from Utah the Celtics finishing out this five-game road trip

Three and two Eddie what did you like best about the Celtics on this road trip I thought that they finished strong right you started off a little shaky with your defense but the defense Clos it out here um especially in this game only 16 points in the fourth quarter

Half of the quarter the Jazz didn’t score and every shot was contested they kept him off the glass as one of the best offensive re rebounding teams in the league kept them off the glass and I thought they had extreme energy late in the game and and Scout kind of hit on it

When he was talking about you know at the end of the road trip you could easily start thinking about just getting home and let go of the Rope this team has not done that and I like what scow said too about how Portland would make a run and the Celtics would maintain Focus

I mean I feel like this has happened at least once in every game on the five-game road trip where the Celtics fans start to get loud in the visiting Arena we hear a let’s go Celtics chant that’s happened now five out of five games on the road trip and then all of a

Sudden the home fans they get into it because they’re like this is our building we want to represent we want to defend it and then the team goes on a run that happened when it was 9391 and Jordan Clarkson was starting to heat up Jazz had it as close as it had been

Really since the opening minutes how did the Celtics respond 20 to nothing run between the end of the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth I mean I thought that was incredibly impressive and I just want to flip it over to scout because that was an impressive run at

The end of the third going into the fourth Scout how did this change the game yeah I was wondering on a back to back are they going to lose their steam but what a great response Eddie when you’re watching this game watching this thing unfold do you feel like the

Celtics were losing it a little bit in the fourth were you always confident that they were going to put on not a 20 old run but definitely ultimately get to the uh the win tonight yeah they they had energy out there so I didn’t see anybody lacking energy or lack playing

With a lack of force they are were playing downhill trying to get either get to the basket get into the paint and I thought in the fourth quarter you talk about sliding your feet playing good defense contested shots up until they finally scored none of there was not

Anything easy for the Jazz everything was tough contested and they had to work for everything that they that for every attempt that they got in that fourth quarter so I was very impressed at the fact that we didn’t let go the rad we did not slow down at all we played a lot

Better in the fourth quarter I thought than we did in that second quarter Drew what’s the record for the lucky vest two and0 baby I’m going to pop this collar I’m going to Str up hold up you talk that vest up like it was some magical apparel before the game and it

Was one and0 dang just one and0 in the vest two and number that matters is the O in the L column hey real quick on the way out here number one we got to give some love to Luke cornette for that joke I mean he was definitely cooking that up

On a flight because that was so good and that like that’s legit stand comedy material but was was Cody went over my head I didn’t get it Mei I guess you I guess you had to have se la la land because I didn’t see La La Land Drew you can explain it to
