Cam and Mikal knocking down their 3s early. Good sign.

Looking good on both sides of the ball. Tatum starting to warm up but he's being defended well. A lot of guys involved so far on offense and the ball is moving nicely.

Great defense so far. Tatum made a couple of tough shots. Ayton reminds me of Hibbert on defense.

These refs can’t be serious missing such obvious calls like over and back. Disgraceful

Celts 3s are keeping them close right now. Monty going deep into the bench with Moore, Gallo, Carter getting the mix along with Jones who has a couple of swats.

He’s not playing terrible today which is a nice change. I like his energy so far

Rough start to the second quarter. Too many fouls and they made a bunch of 3s against our 2s.

Refs are letting him play. In another game he would have fouled out by now.

Suns overpassing now, giving up good looks. DA looks half a step slow on defense.

Did you see how they grabbed Booker on that one inbounds play.

Wow, Williams just bullying that ball away from Ayton after he had secured it. Just an illustration of how soft Ayton is

Booker for the win! Oh its only halftime...

Good half. Celtics have 10 3s mostly from tough shots or players we are leaving open by choice (teague)

Booker dishing and swishing.

I thought we were solid but only leading by a Book late 3

It was Thompson not Williams, not that it makes it acceptable tho. Ridiculous sequence.

Wasn‘t that Thompson? 7 offensive rebounds for the c‘s is too much.

It was not a good second quarter, defense was bad. Late rotations, everyone a step slow. Can’t continue into the second half, this Celtics team is good, only a matter of time before Kemba and Tatum start hitting.

That bounce pass by Book was either very smart or way behind Mikal but his long arms made it look good lol

Appreciate the start, out 3rd quarters have been mediocre recently
