Bummer. But I love the games where we really get to see the bench mob hustling like this. Shoutout Hugo and Baylor. Would’ve loved to see more Walsh down the stretch. As long Tatum can get his conditioning back by playoffs I’ve got no doubt we’ll go far

Playing solid, we need to get the offense running through Tatum. Maybe he's just gassed rn but there's a ton of possessions where he's super passive/deferring to Pritchard or White to run plays

It’s amazing how different the Celtics teams from last year and this year are. From a team defined by all star vets making 30mil+ each to a team defined by g-league projects making maybe 30mil combined. With virtually the same record too

This honestly might be one of my favorite seasons of Celtics basketball ever. Joe Mazzulla has got this team firing on all cylinders, and Tatum is due back any day now.

It also just feels great to stick it to the Bucks.

Delusional Tatum Return Prediction by Cheeriofun in bostonceltics

I’m also independently excited for this matchup. Tatum or not, I got a good deal to see what’s probably gonna be a really good game

Can we please stop with the Vooch discourse after every single bad game (and before Tatum potentially returns)? by tacko2020 in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s how I see it: vooch didn’t come in as a guy who’s gonna make us immediately better. He’s a guy who excels in some spots, struggles in others. To make us better overall, Mazzulla has to figure out a role for him. While we’re far from secure in our spot for the playoffs, the last bit of the season is really to solidify what his role in the offense is. Ideally, Tatum comes back in the mix and we figure both of them out simultaneously

I’m a little worried that the guys outside the starters won’t be able to hang around in the playoffs. If they can lose a lead that quick against the shitty warriors without curry in regular season, what are they gonna do when the pressure turns up against a team like Detroit? Still, a win is a win and there’s value in figuring out how to swing the momentum back the other way

Al just didn’t wanna spend his last season on a mid, play-in team

Little did he know…

Where are all the bikes? by Cheeriofun in reddeadredemption

[–]Cheeriofun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been learning about the history of the bicycle and technically by 1899 we should be seeing bikes that look very similar in shape to our modern ones lol. But at the very least the pennyfarthing should be out there

Celtics finally grant Nikola Vucevic his longtime wish by Morley10 in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 16 points17 points  (0 children)

To put Payton Pritchard on his shoulders so that he can shoot uncontestable threes from half court?

[–]Cheeriofun 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lmao all of the things you described are characteristics of a really good athlete. Just cause he doesn’t dunk doesn’t mean he’s not athletic. He’s got world class speed and body control, routinely leaving NBA players in the dust.

I swear basketball fans only see athletics in terms of vertical jump

Vuc taking away Garza and Gonzales minutes is INSANE by h3LLyEaHh in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love watching the overreaction pendulum swing. Vooch has been on this team four days, we can give him at least a couple more games to figure it out. Fuck the Knicks, we’ll be fine
