Celtics-Pistons went ⁴⁄₄ for entertaining games this season.

Let’s do it again, maybe mid-late May? 🤝

It’s been bangers even when we were ass. I will never forget how hard fought it was during the losing streak too. Yall and Miami are games I never miss

I’d be down if Brian Scalabrine and George Blaha called every game together lol

Caught myself saying “man, honestly I love scal” during this game. Impossible not to show love to White Mamba

Such a weirdly reffed game they couldn’t decide whether to call everything or call nothing.

Tobias Harris you are my sunshine but holy fuck is Brown a monster on both ends ik he’s coming back from a wrist injury but I haven’t seen Cade that rattled all season.

Random ass spurts of like 2-3 minutes where they blow everything, then follow that up with absolute silence. Did they just need some lung exercises or something.

If Tatum comes back and Cade heals up I’m subscribing

That would be my prediction as of now, especially if Tatum is able to return by the playoffs

Inefficient shooting from Cade but 14:0 assist:turnover ratio works out

More assists on his own than Boston as a team.

we have one guy atm who can play offense against your team so it is what it is

Cade gotta get that wrist healthy ASAP

He played good (could have shot better) but he delivered in assists that were huge.

Crafty_Substance_954 | Pistons

Yes he did, and defensively he does the right things as well.

That was so close. I feel the celtics have a real chance this year once tatum comes back.

Always an absolute banger when we play the Celtics

CarBallAlex | Celtics

Tough loss, but great game. Not sure what the refs were doing at times just putting a lid on the physical play, but I thoroughly enjoy a good back and forth NBA game. Hopefully this is an ECF preview, it would be a banger

Brinkster05 | Pistons

Def way more entertaining to watch than a free throw fest.

Great game.. Scal said it on air but gotta reiterate. JB’s conditioning is crazy, made every clutch bucket for Boston(minus the GW) and was trying to guard Cade every possession.

Pistons in complete control of the east, 6.5 game lead halfway through the year is gonna be tough to make up

Idk man their big man depth is tragic

jambr380

If they can get another Queta level big, they’ll be in business. Even a little worse than Queta. Garza is good enough to mop up minutes in the regular season, but he’s no match for Detroit’s bigs

JoJonesy | Celtics

1 | 19 hours ago

Still think we’re likely to make a move to get another center. Not like a Zubac-type move but a better backup than Garza (who’s been playing well lately, but he’s too much of a defensive liability to be in the playoff rotation)

also, for what it’s worth, Tatum immediately makes our smallball lineups better defensively. even if he’s not 100% back to peak form he’s gonna help us a lot there

nugentismycenter | Pistons

Someone like Jock Londale would be huge for you guys.
