The Celtics had a monster game around the basket against the Washington Wizards – something that hasn’t necessarily been their strong suit this season. But thanks to strong performances from big men Neemias Queta and Luka Garza, the Celtics wound up dominating the paint against the Wizards and cruised to a win. We discuss that emphasis on the paint, while also talking about the shooting slide the Celtics have been on from 3-point range.

Another Celtics-Spurs game, another high-level competition that went down to the final minutes. Thanks to Derrick White and Ron Harper Jr. - yes, Ron Harper Jr.! - the Celtics took the Spurs down to the wire despite missing Payton Pritchard (injury) and Jaylen Brown (2Q ejection). This is all while Victor Wembanyama raised eyebrows with his elite 3-point shooting, causing Marc to think about Wemby's potential to become the GOAT.

Boston finished the regular season with a 3-0 record against the Cleveland Cavaliers, including two wins on the road, to sweep the season series. Sunday’s win featured multiple 26-point advantages, but Boston still needed Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard to snap waves of momentum from Cleveland with clutch baskets. And Baylor Scheierman earns some love, even though apparently Shaq doesn’t know who he is, and the opponent glazed over the scouting report on his 3-point shot.

After nearly 10 months of rehab, Jayson Tatum made his return Friday night for the Boston Celtics – and he looked like himself for some major stretches while piling up a monster double-double. He and Jaylen Brown fueled the Celtics to a dominant win over the visiting Dallas Mavericks, who watched rookie and Maine native Cooper Flagg return to New England for the very first time as an NBA player. On the unfortunate end of things, Nikola Vucevic suffered a fractured right ring finger, and he will now be out for the foreseeable future. Let’s discuss the impact of it all!

The Charlotte Hornets are on a run that’s reminiscent of the one the 2022 Celtics rode all the way to the NBA Finals. Charlotte continued its hot streak by downing the Celtics by 29 points Wednesday night at TD Garden behind a balanced offensive attack led by rookie star Kon Knueppel. Boston, meanwhile, struggled at both ends despite Derrick White going off for a game-high 29 points.

The list of challenges the Celtics faced Monday night was as long as a book. Yet none if it mattered. They came out and demolished the Milwaukee Bucks on the night of Giannis Antetnokounmpo’s return to continue their magical run this season. Who was the key to it all? None other than the 20-year-old rookie, Hugo Gonzalez, who got a spot start with Jaylen Brown missing the game due to illness. You won’t believe whose company Hugo now holds.

What did we just watch!?

The Celtics just put on an offensive clinic against the Brooklyn Nets, finishing what may be the greatest offensive performance in team or league history. It was all thanks to monster performances from Nikola Vucevic, Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard. Come dive in!

The absence of Jaylen Brown didn’t drag the Celtics down Tuesday night in Phoenix. Instead, Boston found a way to maintain its incredibly high level play at both ends of the court to blow out the Suns. We discuss how the Celtics continue to play at the same level every night, regardless of the circumstances, and what led to tonight’s win, including Derrick White’s all-around game, more stifling defense, and the combo of Neemias Queta and Baylor Scheierman in the starting lineup.

Payton Pritchard (30 points, 8 assists) and Jaylen Brown (32 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists) fueled the Celtics to a blowout win over the fully-loaded Lakers on a night in which a long list of Lakers Legends were in the house to honor former Lakers head coach Pat Riley after his statue was unveiled. The Celtics dominated the game from start to finish, picking the Lakers apart at both end while logging a second win by at least 20 points over Los Angeles this season.
