Celtics Start Their Christmas Day Matchup On A 12-0 Run – UNCUT πŸŽ„ | December 25, 2023

RECENTLY. MEANWHILE THE CELTICS THIS IS THE FINAL GAME OF A FOUR GAME WEST COAST TRIP. THEY ARE TWO AND ONE ON THE TRIP SO FAR. FIRST MEETING OF THE SEASON BETWEEN THE TWO AND IT’S JUST ALWAYS JUST DIFFERENT WHEN IT’S THE CELTICS AND THE LAKERS. JAYLEN BROWN’S FIRST SHOT KNOCKS

IT DOWN. THEY ARE ON SOME OFFENSIVE STRETCH RIGHT NOW. >> THEY’RE AMAZING OFFENSIVE TEAM. YOU KNOW WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE THREES THAT THEY PUT UP JUST THE ATTEMPTS DORT THAT JUST THE MAKES AND THEY’RE SO EFFICIENT. COMES FROM ALL FIVE POSITIONS. >> THEIR BALL MOVEMENT IS INCREDIBLE. THEY’VE GOT TWO GUYS

IN TATUM AND BROWN WHO CAN TAKE OVER FOR STRETCHES. BUT IT JUST FEELS LIKE THE STARS ARE DOING A LITTLE BIT LESS TO WELCOME THIS GUY. >> YEAH THEY KNOW THEY HAVE TO FIT IN, RIGHT. THAT’S HOW THEY’RE GOING TO WIN. AND THEY’RE DOING A REALLY GREAT JOB

OF IT IN THIS GAME. MIKE I THINK THAT WHAT’LL BE INTERESTING IS CAN THE LAKERS MAKE ENOUGH TWOS COMPARED TO THE CELTICS THREES? WELL, OF COURSE THE LAKERS HAVE BEEN UP AND DOWN OFFENSIVELY. >> ONE OF THE BETTER DEFENSIVE TEAMS. JAYLEN BROWN KNOCKS DOWN HIS SECOND SHOT. THEY’RE COMING

OFF AN HISTORIC TWO GAMES. THEIR LAST TWO GAMES THEY SCORED 144 ON SATURDAY AGAINST THE CLIPPERS. THE GAME BEFORE THAT 145. JUST INCREDIBLE OFFENSIVE FIREPOWER. BROWN TOOK IT AWAY DAVIS GETS IT BACK, SHOOTS OVER PORZINGIS. AND HERE COME THE CELTICS. CELTICS EIGHT AND SIX ON THE ROAD. OFFENSIVE FOUL. THERE’S JARED VANDERBILT. THAT’S

WHY HE’S IN THE STARTING LINEUP. HE IS AN ELITE DEFENDER. >> SO WHAT YOU DO IS YOU REPLACE A SMALLER GUARD IN D’ANGELO RUSSELL WITH MORE SIZE. AND ALREADY BIG LAKERS TEAM BECOMES BIGGER AND DOK. THEY CAN SWITCH CROSS POSITIONALLY. THEY CAN MATCH BOSTON’S SIZE FOR SIZE. THAT’S UNUSUAL.

>> YEAH. YOU LOOK AT THESE TWO TEAMS LIKE LOOK AT THE SIZE ON THE FLOOR RIGHT NOW. IT’S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THE SMALLEST STARTER FOR THE LAKERS IS NOW SIX SIX DAVIS THROWS IT AWAY DEREK WHITE SPEAKING OF DEFENSIVE DEMONS COMES UP WITH HIS FIRST STEAL. >> JRUE HOLIDAY DAY HOLIDAY AND

WHITE PERFORM QUITE THE BACK COURT HOLIDAY LAUNCHES HIS THREE POINTER AND THEY’RE THREE OF FOUR TO START. EXCELLENT BEGINNING FOR THE CELTICS. LAKERS HAVE BEEN SO TOUGH AT HOME TEN AND THREE, ALTHOUGH THEY’VE BEEN ON THE ROAD 21 OF THE LAST 30 DAYS. IT REALLY HAS BEEN A ROUGH TRAVEL STRETCH.

JAMES GOES THE OTHER SIDE SHOT OFF THE MARK. SUFFOLK LOOKED TO PUSH. BROWN SPINS. UP TOP TO WHITE. WHITE A THREE POINTER. PORZINGIS RIGHT THERE FOR THE FOLLOW. AND A QUICK WHISTLE FOR DARVIN HAM. WAS GOING TO CALL A TIMEOUT. NOPE. BALL JUST GOT AWAY. SO THEY’LL BRING IT UP MIKE.

>> ONE THING THAT CAN HAPPEN IF YOU’RE PLAYING THE BOSTON CELTICS YOU CAN’T BE PLAYING CATCH UP. YOU GOT TO SPRINT BACK DEAD IN TRANSITION. MATCH UP QUICKLY BECAUSE IF YOU’RE PLAYING CATCH UP THE THREES START RAINING DOWN. >> THEY REALLY DO. AND THE THING AGAIN THOUGH IS YOU TAKE RUSSELL

OUT WHICH I THINK IS A GREAT MOVE. BUT YOU LOSE SOME OFFENSE. AND AGAINST THE CELTICS YOU’RE GOING TO NEED OFFENSE. >> BROWN IT’S MORE OFFENSE DEREK WHITE HIS SECOND STEAL. BROWN HIS
