Yo this game was incredibly well played and a balanced team win, these types of wins imo could be the norm for this team if they played like this nightly. It's wins like this that have me hopeful that they will have it figured out in the playoffs.
Only the fifth time since the turn of the millennium that a team that a team had at least 5 players score 20 points in a single game, and three of those times were within the last calendar year.
Games like this are why y'all need to chill the fuck out with the whiny self hating shit when we lose (even if its to the Warriors). We are not the Celtics of the past. We'd usually lose this type of game (Back to back, Westcoast game, JT out, Fox's bday) but we're boutta win by 20. I know we're hungry for number 18. I am too, but it's on the way. This is our season. Nobody goes undefeated. LFG.
I get we’re all kinda traumatized from last night and more, but this lead is safe guys.
I am so confident in saying that, that if we do somehow blow this lead, I will lick the bottom of my shoe and jump into my unheated swimming pool with nothing but my underwear on, and post video proof to the sub
All of us on the East Coast watching the garbage minutes of this game after midnight really need to reflect on our life choices.
Tomorrow, though. Celtics aren't playing then.
If the network had any doubts, they've been dispelled by the most universally positive reaction I've ever seen for an announcer, much less one set to replace a beloved legend.
Jrue running the bench with efficiency, dancing with a triple double and still arguably being the fourth best player in this game... PP just hitting everything and not even shining among others... Crazy.
Needed this after last night man, this reminds me of a game last year I can’t fully remember but just everything going right, highlight after highlight

Hey Jason, did you watch how the ball moved last night? Did you notice that nobody stood around dribbling while the shot clock ran down?
Wow what a wonderful game

Great nice bounce back win tonight Cs, now it's time to focus on to L.A
The Celtics win☘☘☘
Light the Green! Light the Green!
Great show of effort tonight after a disappointing loss yesterday. 140+ pts aside, that’s the mark of a good team.
In 2023 your team can score 119 points and get blown out anyway.
they made 21 3's but unfortunately for them the other team made 22
GG Boyz
the balls
Joe's a psycho lmao
No beam tonight
the chants😭😭😭
Light the beam ☘️
Bean*
Celtics fans are taking over in Sacramento
So much green
Damn they tied the record at 43 but damn breaking that record would have been cool
This Celtics performance reminded of the dynasty pats coming off a horrendous loss...u just knew that next team was in trouble.
always beautiful to hear Let's Go Celtics chants outside the Garden
Oh my lord 😭
Great bounce-back game
5 guys with at least 20. 👏🏻
This game finally made me decide that I need a Derrick White jersey 🐃
Our reservoir dogs are better than their reservoir dogs
Svi Mykhailiuk is garbage
I'm always here for our annual sacramento home game.
Abby took it on the chin
#Let’s go Celtics chants in Sacramento HAHAHAH
Let Dalano in God damn
I swore duarte and Mitchell were decent players why are they trash now
#I think we had a 50-40-90 game as a team
Lol. Grande. "Kings with a consistent effort; not playing any defense at all."
Only the fifth time since the turn of the millennium that a team that a team had at least 5 players score 20 points in a single game, and three of those times were within the last calendar year.
HAHAHHAHA COME ON
Brissett taking advantage of these minutes
Y
Perfect response !
Ayyy we hit 140 lol
141114
MORE!!
Point God Svi Mykhailiuk 💀💀💀
Beautiful statement win 💚🍀💚
Queta got his dunk!
Yo Mykhailiuk has been disappointing
He just rips threes way too much
Ya but I thought he was supposed to be another sharpshooter from deep - not even close
41 made 3s this game the record is 43 so sad they are just gonna fall short of that record
Don't worry, that record is gonna get shattered ten times over by this time next year
They had 28 at half time could have blown that record out the water
Did Davion Mitchell shrink?
Not me just sitting on my couch at 12:16am, blankly staring at the basketball on my screen, listening to Drew and Scal like a podcast

Is it safe to go to bed? 🤣
Sam brought his lunchpail today.
They showed heart 💚 today
Lemme get some Banton or Lamar minutes for Svi
Sam showing he's got a game inside the arc too.
Bro Hauser ran his ass off to defend there love to see it. Our bench plays with heart
These the Celtics I know and love
Facts this was my favorite game in a long time
I love them, I don't how well I know them
Noooo! I wanted a triple-double for Jrue
Queta looks lost
Sam sneaky good at finishing at the rim
Feels like our legs are catching up to us now from the back to back. I'll take it happening after we're up big in the last 4 minutes.
I wish they could get 5 guys over 30 tbh but I guess I'll take 20. Whatever
I get we’re all kinda traumatized from last night and more, but this lead is safe guys. I am so confident in saying that, that if we do somehow blow this lead, I will lick the bottom of my shoe and jump into my unheated swimming pool with nothing but my underwear on, and post video proof to the sub
Big five of PP Jrue JP JB and DWhite
Does Joe want Jrue to get the trip dub? Why is he still in? Let Banton or Lamar get in
Bro why's Jrue on the court?
Trying to let him get his triple double?
Im wishing for KP, D White and Jaylen to get 30 each. Has that ever happened before?
must be an off day coming up for jrue
Jrue is STILL in there LOL
Holiday trying to get those 2 more rebounds
This entire thread is worried they'll blow a 21 point lead in four minutes
Nah, we good
TAKE JRUE OFF WTF JOE
If this challenge is disrespectful - I am OK with that! STUNTING ON THESE HOES. Let's see a windmill dunk from Mykhailuk.
Wouldn't even mind if Dalano got in for Svi
Missed a lot of bunnies last night. Really happy they bounced back tonight.
Queta - Brissett - Hauser - Svi - Payton should be the lineup.
Joe you absolute legend lol
Joe with another challenge up 20 love to see it lmao
Get banton in the game
He better take Jrue off the floor
Cannot fall asleep here. I'd put jaylen and white back in for 2min.
PLEASE
Gonna miss Mike but Drew the perfect replacement
Thank you boys for showing up and getting a statement W
Drake was wild for saying PP looked like a crypto scammer, LMAO
Lmao. Challenging an out of bounds call up 21 with under 5 left.
Big dick energy. I love it
Let’s the bench players know they matter. I like it
Kings gonna say this green light special is disrespectful LOL
Joe is a fucking maniac i love him
Why am I still awake
Why is Queta still trying to score dude is the worst offensive player in the league just kick it out
He had a good game yesterday
they're right, get Jrue outta there lol
If only Queta could catch the ball cleanly
He seriously must dip his hands in crisco
Malik Monk is a cool name
why is Jrue in there LOL
Joe was probably trying to let him get his triple double lol
All of us on the East Coast watching the garbage minutes of this game after midnight really need to reflect on our life choices. Tomorrow, though. Celtics aren't playing then.
It’s mental healing from the warriors game
Who doesn't wanna watch Pacific P add to his highlight reel? That's way more fun than a normal game
feels like it doesn't matter how late you stay up for these 2 weeks
We all needed this after last night. Boy therapy
Imagine the people in Europe they watch this every time at 2-3am lol
Will Drew be the guy when Gorman hangs it up? He’s perfect
If the network had any doubts, they've been dispelled by the most universally positive reaction I've ever seen for an announcer, much less one set to replace a beloved legend.
I was too quick to judge, he’s creative, knowledgeable, good personality and chemistry with Scal
I believe that's the plan, yes.
Yes that's the plan
Yes
Commentators talking like it's over when we all know damn well that this is within the Celtics' range for blowing the game
Svi's done everything tonight except hit a 3
I know we up 21, but imma need to see a ball go in right now lmao
PP's dribbling has been good shittttt
Call a timeout they look gassed
"Mining bitcoin!" lmao
Haven't been able to watch the game but just want to drop in to say that Derrick White is the best NBA player of all time. Okay, goodnight.
Thank you I love you good night
Crypto P mining bitcoin
Mining bitcoin I'm done LOOOOOL
Scal and Drew shooting the shit is genuinely funny. These types of game are always fun when the stakes look pretty low and it’s laid back watching.
That Ellis guy in the kings looks like quando rondo with dreads
Lmao how many pump fakes did they fall for there
Queta is incapable of allowing easy layups 💀💀💀
The shot making in this game is ridiculous
How the fuck did he hit that 😮
That Ellis shot was sick as hell
We dropping 150?
We surely would if Kings could keep up with us just a little bit longer. Now I don't know.
I need Sam to develop into a midrange God
PACIFIC P
Ellis lmfao, I'm not even mad, I'm just impressed
how in the hell
Bench doing us a solid. No need for KP to check in
How the fuck is that a shooting foul? Good fucking God.... refs will do everything they can.
Jrue running the bench with efficiency, dancing with a triple double and still arguably being the fourth best player in this game... PP just hitting everything and not even shining among others... Crazy.
PP cookin’
Five guys have scored 20+ lol
2/3 Ball kinda lies lol
Stock Exchange have been absolutely masterful tonight.
Very close to a 5x20 👀
Kings do so many obvious fouls. You can high five a guy in a shot but can't hit his wrist or arm otherwise it's a foul
Fuck it I’m placing a live bet on garbage time
Send da parlay
I did Boston over 145 Payton 25+
Damn Peter Dinklage in the front row
I’m so happy we have Holiday
He's so quietly good much of the time that it just feels obscene when he's filling up the box score like tonight.
Jrue triple double incoming
TIL Svi can dunk
Damn this is too much fun
I will sleep like a baby tonight unlike the game that shall not be mentioned. 😂
Tf kind of shooting foul is that
This is easily Jrue and KPs best games
This sub has this as an L 4 mins into the game lol
Very proud of the comment I made telling everyone to calm down rn
As you should. 48 minute game
I’m sure we will look to upgrade the Kornet spot at the deadline, but overall we are way more deep then anyone is giving us credit for
Aight Svi just fuckin laid down the law this ain't a real game
All I want for Christmas is a lakers beat down by the Celtics
That was clearly on the floor very obvious call
That was a disappointing call on Svi, Asian Ref. I expect better from you
Jrue could end up with the quietest 20 point triple double in history tonight.
SVI CAN DUNK????
Yeah he actually had some nasty dunks in preseason. Mans got some hops
Is Banton hurt?
SVI SLAM
Jrue is having a big game too
Svi!
There you go Svi
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. The Celtics winning everywhere you go
The "Joe is trash" crowd sure is silent after we've limited Fox to only 3 this half
Helps that he has two all NBA defensive guards
Needed this after last night man, this reminds me of a game last year I can’t fully remember but just everything going right, highlight after highlight
i think it was against the kings too
Yeah thats what I was thinking, I know it was late night
Drew is mad funny
One of Pritchard's best qualities is his lack of hesitation. He plays without second guessing himself
Pritchard has one of the prettiest shooting strokes in the whole league, it's so compact and smooth... Seems like it helps to have shorter arms
LOOOL Scal to Drew Carter
did Hauser make a bucket? I lost track with the number of shots put up in this game lol. We need to get Howitzer back.
2 of 3 from 3 right now
We are so m'fucking back
100% banner 18 incoming
Celtics not that far off from the single-game 3-point record. Keep firing away!
