No Rivalry Here

      How about them Celtics?!! Going into the so called Lions Den in LA and kicking their butts! What makes it great is they were honoring Pat the Rat Riley. Cs are a much better team than the Lakers this season. Historically the Celtics are a better team than the Lakers. Just go and study the numbers. Seems like a one sided rivalry to me! Celtics have and will always be the greatest NBA Franchise of all time. 

     Payton Pritchard was on fire last night, he made Austin Reaves look like a fool on D. Pritch was lethal from beyond the arc and had his fair share of points in the post. I love when he uses his change of pace out there. Whether to score or throw off the defender. He isn't afraid to grab rebounds and finds his teammates where they can score. Pritch has been an exceptional player since he was drafted by the Celtics. One of my favorite players to watch and wrote about. I mean he's a cold blooded assasin! Coming off the bench is where he flourishes. 

    JB was yet again unreal on all fronts! Dude is playing at an MVP type clip! He's doing everything on both ends of the floor. He's truly become an all around player. His play has fostered everyone's elevated play. This team should be able to make a deep run in the playoffs. Sam Hauser played some solid minutes and when needed knocked down some shots. I'd like to see more from Vuc but he's getting used to playing with the team. Overall I was pleased with what I saw on offense last night. 

     Defensively the Celtics didn't let the Lakers breathe! I love the intensity on defense and the Cs hounded them all night. That's the kind of defense that can lead teams to a championship. They frustrated whoever was bringing up the ball and I absolutely loved it. Is it me or is Luka overrated... actually that entire Laker roster is overrated. With that said that's why the Celtics went into LA and lit them up. Celtic Pride!
