Celts owner Wyc Grousbeck is sitting with the broadcasters (seems like a good guy!) and they were talking about Oubre and the whole situation...one of the broadcasters asked if he'd ever seen anything like that before with players being switched/confused in a trade and he said he had and it was with one of the teams involved in the Oubre deal. The way he said it I automatically assumed the Wizards. If anyone else caught that let me know if you thought differently.
Well, there was that time we thought we had a deal with Golden State for a draft pick...

What is Booker doing out there? Struggling on offense and just giving up on defense. Two times down the court he just leaves his man and stands there instead of getting back and playing good defense.

Booker not having a good third quarter.
Quick shots, missing free throws, bad entry passes to Ayton.

It's a shame, because Celtics can be had, missing some key players.

Warren and Booker are 12-of-33 but we’re only down 1

nice to see Mikal 3pt shot dropping
I read an article today with Igor saying what he likes most about the last 3 games is that they are getting around 20 deflections a game
not sure what number we have so far but to me looks like we clearly doing well again tonight in that area

I love the defensive effort. We still make stupid mistakes and give up fouls or open shots but man does it look a million times better than last season and earlier this season.

Crawford is the difference maker for us. His passing has been huge , especially because guys like TJ and JJ are great off the ball. Jamal is just slinging passes down the lane to cutters and TJ's one of the best around the hoop. It's an athletic 2nd unit with Craw, JJ, Bridges, Oubre, TJ and Holmes.

This 3rd quarter was very similar to the 3rd qtr we had against the Knicks. Same lineup swarming on defense, passing and cutting fluidly on offense and just wearing the other team down.

Josh Jackson is feeling it with 3 jumpers. The 2 stepbacks were nice and he just knocked down a 3.
