Career high 15 rbds for Theis ...
Kyrie didn't have to play "hero ball" in Q4 ...
J-Lenny scores 20 ... seems like we have easier wins when Brown scores 15-20 ...
Tatum blows past his defender on the perimeter with a crossover to get into the lane then avoids the shot blocker with a nice reverse layup at the rim ... btw, he had a nice stat line even though he wasn't killing it from the perimeter tonight ... 13pts (6-12)/(1-3) with 7 rbds, 5 asts and 1 stl ...
Refs continued to call the C's for ticky-tac reaches and bumps while at the other end, when Theis went up for a slam he got bumped by the defender over the back and missed with no whistle ... where's the justice? It seems the refs are intent on keeping games close (when they can) or taking away the Celtics "home court advantage." This better not continue!

Fun to watch. Still think CHI is better than their record, when healthy. Rooting hard for CHI, SAC, PHO and ATL to catch the lakers. I believe DAL will catch them, too.

COACH BRAD STEVENS ON AMAZING 3rd QUARTER: “Well, first of all I thought – I thought we played great in the first half and I thought they played great in the first half. I mean, I thought it was – we walked back in to the coaches’ meeting room at halftime and we were just kind of like, ‘That was high-level basketball both ways.’ And that was the best we’ve played in a while, and we had to be that, just to be up four at halftime, and then we continued it at the start of the third quarter and played with a pretty good purpose. I thought obviously we looked fresher; we looked like we had our legs under us. We were excited to play coming off those two tough losses. And that’s a good basketball team. I mean, and they were really playing at a high level. You could see that in the first half.” www.celticsblog.com/2017/12/24/16815728/inside-the-celtics-locker-room-celtics-avenge-early-december-loss-to-bulls-kyrie-irving-jaylen-brown
