Celtics ☘️ Sentinel

     Celtics welcome a Warriors team who really hasn't played anyone that good. Their record is built up by playing cream puffs. Oh and JT has some payback for Steve Kerr.    First🏀       We have a double big starting lineup, Queta alongside Al. I'm looking forward to seeing them tonight. C's need to stomp on the Warriors throat early on. C's start off the game with excellent ball movement. Queta with the Jam! Looked like a set play off the tip. C's offense is taking time to get into their normal flow.       Jrue finds DWhite for a three in rhythm. We have the best backcourt in all of basketball. DWhite once again with a three in rhythm! Queta with a thunderous block on the other end. Talk about hustle! That's a Tommy point! Queta was a diamond in the rough, and now he's becoming a very valuable gem.       JT gets Curry in the post and finds DWhite for three! Love how unselfish he's become over his career. ...

Three-on-three basketball is coming to the Tokyo Olympics next year. It is still unknown if current NBA players will get involved, but for the sake of discussion, what players from past Celtics teams would make up the optimum 3-on-3 team. The teams will have one substitute, so we need four players. Because of the nature of the game, and limited participants, versatility is key - ball handling, shooting, rebounding, passing and defense.

Because with his Celtics stint, he was under-rated - by a lot. He could do it all. And we needed more ball-handling and passing. How about choosing four guys from the present Celts roster. Think versatility here, not just All-Star appearances, shooting expertise or defensive intensity. Here are my choices: Marcus Smart, Gordon Hayward, Kemba Walker and Jayson Tatum...
