Anytime we went up 14 some sus shit got called on several possessions. Very normal stuff! Way to battle 5v8.
I concede that Giannis was out.
But Bobby and Khris played way better than their norm and helped bridge the gap of him being gone. There wasn’t much of a drop off in my opinon.
Still a great win in my eyes. Love that we never gave up the lead and stayed composed and resilient.
I’ll take this type of win over a meaningless blow out any day. There’s learning points in this game the team can take away
Doc: pull Giannis out so we can psyche them
Joe: give the Bucks hope, keep the game close in the 4th quarter so people will think they have a chance in the playoffs
JOE PLAYING 4D CHESS
Good teams go on runs, and the Bucks have been playing great without Giannis recently. We shouldn’t have given up that lead, but we executed in the last 45 seconds and got the win. But, I think this win shows what we all know which is we are vulnerable despite being fantastic.
Anyway 55 wins is fuckin sick amirite?
We missed Jrue on Dame and Middleton tonight. Glad we held out. And shout out to JB for the late free throws
That 4th quarter was so ugly, Celtics were The Hunchback of Boston Dame.
BUT: 55 WIN TEAM. GIVE US THE 3 SEED.
Edit: AND WE GOT THE SAME RECORD AS THE 2007-2008 TEAM AFTER 69 GAMES
55-14!! LFG BABY
The Celtics let the offense got pretty sloppy vs the zone and it nearly cost them, but luckily no repeat of the Cavs game disaster class tonight.
When this team messes up it sure feels like they mess up loudly, but they manage to clean up said mess this time around.
A win is a win I’ll take it good game by Crypto P if KP played better we win by double digits
What’s everyone’s takeaway from this game? Really fucking ugly 4th, but ultimately we didn’t squander a win against a strong opponent we’re extremely likely to see in the playoffs, and that’s a valuable experience to take away from this matchup. I don’t know whether I liked what I saw from this game or hated it. Very confusing evening.
Celtics Fans: Cherish this team
This season is truly something remarkable
Lmao Dame only cared about getting the last shot. If he went quick the would’ve still had at least hope
55 burgers, 55 fries, 55 WINS
Ugly win but I’ll take it.
Ass clenched but I’ll take a W
Weird dichotomy where Tatum is making good reads in the 4th but you almost want him to takeover. Idk what the right strategy is all those shots were wide open and his teammates were just bricking
Man some of you guys are not built to watch a 82 game season. You can take a break if this win has you feeling emotional lmfao.
Say what you want, we closed this game out
It’s so funny seeing the hugfest between all these guys postgame after what was a pretty tense game.
The only thing that matters was this was a W in our column, and an L in theirs.
See yall during the next game
When it was winning time and the Celtics needed something:
* JT free throws off a drive
* JT layup
* KP putback
* JB 2-2 FTs
* JT 2-2 FTs
* JT 2-2 FTs
It wasn’t pretty how they got there (I see you Scott foster), but you can’t argue with how they executed down the stretch. Good win. On to the next.
Bucks shot 49% from 3 and lost lmao
Shout out Tingus for one of the craziest offensive rebounds I’ve ever seen!
Take the W. Learn from the mistakes. Keep rolling.

Payton Pritchard player of the game
The doomers in here are so damn annoying lmao. Like I get they almost blew the lead, but the Bucks are a good team even without Giannis and runs like that are gonna happen. All that matters is they still found a way to close it out at the end. Just enjoy the win and quit bitching.
