I hope everyone had a great Easter with their families. I tried my best to get the most out of family time and watching the Cs. What I saw in that first half was a Celtics team that was rusty. Yes they built up a nice lead but quickly let it fall. During that time they missed shots that usually go in and their defense was a step slow. That half was the Magics opportunity to really grab a good lead and it was only one. This Magic team is very good defensively but can't hang with us on offense.
In that third quarter the Cs seemed to have gotten their legs and showed the Magic what's in store for them. I saw a more crisp offense and a very physical Celtics defense. The Jay's put up only half their typical output and yet we still rolled by twenty points. Derrick White is seen above put on an incredible performance. I have loved Derrick since we traded for him and he's one of my favorite players. His shot from deep was locked in and his defense was spectacular as always. I liked seeing Jrue guard Banchero and show him what true defensive toughness is.
Sam and PP both made their impact on the floor yesterday. Our " super subs " always play their best when it counts. Al Horford was doing his thing on both ends and as a leader. When JT was assaulted going to the rim for a dunk I really thought Joe was gonna head over there ans start something. You have to love the fight in this Coach. Our Coach is the best coach in the league. Come Wednesday I'd pencil JT in for about 25 plus points. Expect a more efficient Celtics teams now that they are back in rhythm.
Celtic Pride! Bleed Green! C Us Rise! 19!
