The Celtics escape the Romeo Langford & Josh Richardson revenge game with a 121-116 Win over the Spurs. The Jays did their thing combining for 63pts but it was the play of Malcolm Brogdon, Derrick White and Robert Williams that put this team over the edge tonight. Brogdon ended the night with 23pts 2reb and 7ast and made big shot after big shot when the Celtics were starting to revert back to iso ball. Derrick White only had 8pts BUT he also contributed a team high 11ast along with 5reb and 3blks and was doing a little bit of everything in this one including some stellar defense. Timelord carried that defense through with 4blocked shots of his own on top of his double double (10pts 11reb) while also contributing 3ast and 2 steals. As good as the Jays were, the role players were even better.

This game certainly wasn't perfect as they did revert back to some iso ball late in the 4th quarter and were pretty terrible on defense in non Timelord minutes. Horford looked slow in this one and so did our perimeter defense at times so when guys like Tatum or Brown got blown by or just lost guys on good backdoor cuts, Horford couldn't rotate over to protect the rim. Timelord changed a lot of those things when he was on the court. I know the Celtics are trying to keep his minutes low and I am 100% fine with him keeping his minutes low but I do think it is time to get him back into the starting lineup just to give this team a bit of energy to start games and hopefully watch that grow as they continue on.
