    Philly, that Tatum/Giannis poster was for **the ladder** — you’re welcome.

    Merry Christmas.

  2. My Christmas present was watching Kornet dunk an Antetokounmpo

  3. aja_ramirez

    Folks, remember, Middleton didn’t play so this win doesn’t count.

    Anyway, I remember the days when JT and JB would shy away from contact at the rim against the Mil bigs. Everyone else does so no shame.

    But those days are GONE. JB SO close on his dunk attempt to make it two facials. Of course, we can’t forget that some people were trying to trade JB half way through the game :).

    Merry Christmas y’all!

  4. crackdup

    Tatum with a fuckin MVP game, and JB always manages to turn up in the 4th

  5. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night

    Except Milwaukee cuz they got fucking shellacked

  6. zgamer200

    [I like to think that this win was Santa telling me that you’re never too old to ask him for a present,](https://www.reddit.com/r/bostonceltics/comments/zu388z/daily_discussion_thread_december_24_2022/j1gwhyn/) and what a win it was. Tatum and Brown both going off, Rob looking good on both ends, 3’s aplenty on offense, Giannis not being able to get it going at all in a matchup of two MVP candidates and the top two teams in the NBA record wise, and last but most certainly not least [Tatum dunking on Giannis](https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/zv92hg/highlight_jayson_tatum_booms_giannis_for_christmas/).

    What a good Christmas Day this has been.

  7. TheTurtleOne

    I hope we get to see 10 more years of Jays in the Celtics. These two will break every single record out there. Magical.

  8. tittiegod

    the leprechaun eats venison tonight! merry christmas!

  9. BannerEighteen

    Great win.

    – Best team in the league
    – Js go off
    – Smart doing smart things
    – Grant hitting his shots
    – Offense is back

    Happy holidays!

  10. imthemelloman

    Thanasis talkin all that shit but can’t even get in during garbage time 😭🤣

  11. Brad-Stevens

    70 for the Jays

    They really got no one for them

  12. DjMoneybagzz

    “JT doesn’t show up in big games”

    – fools

  13. VortexCow

    Tatum when he’s in kill mode is the best player in the NBA. How in the hell are you supposed to stop him?

  14. stargazing1111

    Jb and JT dominance ✅
    JT dunk on Giannis ✅
    Giannis and cheerleader big mad ✅
    Blowout W ✅
    Merry Christmas y’all

  15. Theis159

    Chill on the JB hate y’all. Also, we back

  16. beefspecial

    Bud subbing in the bench after Giannis has his frustration fit was the icing on the cake

  17. Plastic_Database_645

    Thanasis is such a bitch ass player. You can’t trashtalk when you yourself is not even playing lmao

  18. Alloverunder

    The MVP of the league is that boy in Boston, and his name is Jayson Taylor

  19. ShadowMiku-

    Fucking the Bucks on National Television and on Christmas! No better way to bring us together until we inevitably put up Banner 18.

    Merry Christmas ya’ll. Can’t wait for Tuesday but until then stay safe out there!

  20. slab_diaz

    great win. what a 3rd quarter by jt. merry christmas

  21. Not going to lie. I was a bit worried after the 1st half when everything seemed to be clicking and we were only up by 1pt.

  22. OHBSquishy

    Thanasis thinks he’s part of the team😭😭

  23. TheSharkFromNemo

    Giannis and his little brother are soft as shit.

    Tatum and Brown are both Him.

    Smart, Horford and Timelord all elite

    The buffalo back roaming beyond the 3pt line

  24. queerwater

    I want to see Tatum posterizing Giannis every Christmas from now on

  25. sodabubbles1281

    Also JB haters what’s up. Thanks for making the game thread annoying af

  26. Kakatal1

    Tatum with MVP game; Team played very well just need to reduce the stupid turnovers. Merry Christmas everyone!

  27. The Batman showed up when we needed him most

  28. Plastic_Database_645

    Jayen Brown with the 4Q takeover again.

    ​

    Oh and yes it’s Jayen he gave his L to Giannis lol

  29. supersickx3

    Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are both all star starters.

  30. Idk what religion Giannis was but he’s Catholic now bc Tatum baptized that man

  31. In review:
    – Giannis only scores at the FT line
    – JT postered him
    – Smart wants that smoke
    – Fuck the Bucks
    – Merry Christmas, goodnight Deuce ✌🏼

  32. Fast-Minimum-8527

    Celtics won, Lakers lost, JT and JB combined for 70 points and Giannis with a game low of minus 27 points. Today was a good day! Merry Christmas everyone!!!

  33. KDBurner4

    Cue the bucks fans crying about how they would’ve won with Middleton

  34. GingerMcJesus

    I wish I could get paid millions of dollars to be a cheerleader for my brother

  35. PabloShwartz

    This game doesn’t count cause someone averaging 11 on 32%fg took a rest day
