Boston Celtics Game Day Recap

Tatum Clutches Up! Celtics Take 2-1 Series Lead


Listen Later

On the night that Joel Embiid receives his MVP trophy, the Celtics walk into Philly and smack them in the mouth 114-102. This is a very impressive win where we got contributions everywhere. Tatum led the way with 27pts 10reb 5ast with some clutch baskets at the end of the game and hopefully came out of the slump he was in. JB came out aggressive again scoring 23pts along with 7reb and 5ast on just 4 3pt attempts. After being laughed at when he called himself an elite 3pt shooter, Al Horford came out and destroyed Philly with 17pts 7reb 2ast 2stl on 5-7 from beyond the arch to shut up the haters from Philly. We alsosaw great performances from our 3 headed guard monster in Smart, White and Brogdon. All of them contributed at a high level throughout this game. Marcus Smart accumulated approximately 17 Tommy Points in this game making huge hustle play after huge hustle play. Brogdon, although quiet for most of the night added 7pts in the 4th quarter and hit a huge 3 to go up 100-92 after a big Philly run late. This truly was a team effort.

Grant, while he didn't get on the scoreboard from a scoring perspective, was incredible defensively tonight forcing Embiid into a lot of tough shots. The game plan most nights when we face the 76ers is to let Embiid cook and shut down everyone else. Tonight we held Harden to 3-14 from the field, Maxey to 4-16 form the field and Harris to just 7pts on the night. It got to a point where we were in Harden's head so much that he was passing out of open floater attempts at the rim. Defensively tonight, we were fantastic. Offensively, the 3s weren't falling at the rate that we would like but the Celtics never seemed to slow down their offense and played with pace so they never got out of rhythm which has been their downfall a lot this year. This wasn't a perfect game, but it was pretty close. The Celtics now take a 2-1 lead heading into game 4. Can they make it 3-1 before heading back to Boston?
