Se eu tivesse escrito o roteiro do jogo de ontem não teria sido tão surreal.
Daqueles momentos que tu imagina acontecendo enquanto tá no banho ou antes de dormir, que tu se treme só de pensar.
GAME WINNER NA CARA DO NBB!

We were so spoiled with the elite movement shooting, off-screen shooting, grenade shotmaking, all on absurd volume. From 2023-25, he was probably the most elite off-ball shooter we’ve seen since Klay Thompson, all while playing elite defense. That version of him was damn near perfection.
Unfortunately, that’s no longer the player we have. We absolutely missed an incredible sell-high opportunity after 2024, but that doesn’t mean he’s no longer valuable to this team’s infrastructure.
After a brutal efficiency drop last season, he’s back to hovering around league-average TS%, still providing so much of the ancillary value that made him special in the first place. He’s upped his playmaking volume, still does all the necessary things offensively, and is shooting 68.1% TS on spot-up opportunities.
I think part of appreciating what he is now is accepting that what we saw from 2023-25 was an absurdly high standard, not necessarily what we should expect from him going forward. He can be a worse version of that player and still be incredibly useful to this team.

Celtics | 0.5 Decisions
Boston ranks 9th in the NBA in AST% after finishing dead last a season ago.
Their ability to make quick, decisive 0.5 decisions (shoot it, drive it, or move it) to maintain advantages has been a big reason why.
Unselfish basketball.

Before the Celtics faced the 76ers, Joe Mazzulla was asked about his team's identity
He said they were "still in the process of building that," but emphasized "leaning into our off-ball execution" offensively. Boston did exactly that in this game
Here are my favorite off ball actions from Boston they used vs Philly

Joe Mazzulla on how Jayson Tatum handled the emotions of tonight:
“They're just words. It’s not like his life's threatened. There's no weapons. No one is throwing anything at him. No one is attacking him. So like it's not really that big of a deal. He's probably been dealing with the spotlight since he was like 12 years old... He doesn’t get enough credit for his emotional stability.”

Paul George with a message for Jayson Tatum:
"For JT is to alleviate any pressure, any friction. Like I'm here to help you, I'm in a way here to serve you, make you become the best player that you can become"
Um desrespeito essa defesa do Sixers, perdidinhos kkkkkkkkk
Tatum chamando dobra no post do marcador do PG, que tava quente, aí pra melhorar o Edgecomb não rotaciona e assiste o PG13 chutar uma bola livre
Se entregaram EM CASA faltando 5 minutos.
Jaylen Brown falou, falou e falou mais um pouco, aí resolveu fazer 13 pontos com uma penca de turnovers e falta
Passando vergonha
Sou eternamente grato por tudo que ele fez pela franquia, mas tá de malucão ultimamente e joga num rival, então eu torço contra
E DOU RISADA 😀
