We did it! 43 wins!

Norm could have been our Derrick Martin.

I still remember Gerald Green going in for that no class dunk.

The closing lineup that they used tonight is the lineup that i'd like to see them use more in close games.

Poeltl
Siakam
DD
Lowry
VV

Honestly the depth is so crazy on this team. Delon has his nights where he deserves to close, jv does too, so does Ibaka.

As long as Casey can get a feel for who’s got it that particular night I think we’re in good shape.

[GOLDBLUM]

Pascal = Black Cheetah

[Hotshot]

Celtics are taking the Hornets out back in the wood shed ooutch.

[3inthekeon]

Poeltl 5 assists (career high?) Siakam 4 assists.

[Demographic Shift]

Four minutes...They ratcheted it up for 4 minutes in the 4th quarter and opened up a 12 point lead.....and put it away.
That’s all it took....4 minutes...

Crap they’re good...

Pascal = Black Cheetah

[Hotshot]

They shoulda went for it. Be like, "we playin for history, bitch"

(Not really though)

Norm could have been our Derrick Martin.

[Shaolin Fantastic]

Poeltl was unreal in this one.

[veda-parabolist]

I like this closing lineup of Lowry, DeRozan, FVV, Siakam, and Poeltl. All 5 guys can make plays and are mobile and quick, and it's just a solid and confident lineup all around.

Edit: I know it was kind of a spur-of-the-moment move by Casey (we don't see this lineup out there a lot), partly brought on by OG going out, Norm playing bad, Miles missing shots, and Yak and Pascal playing great, but I think it is a pretty strong lineup.

[Hotshot]

First 3 stars:

1. Poeltl
2. Siakam
3. Lowry

Crapped the bed: Powell

[007]

Siakam: 14/6/4/2/1 on 7-9 FG, +7 in 25 minutes.
Poeltl: 13/8/5/2/3 on 5-7 FG, +13 in 28 minutes.

It's not even a known record whatsoever lol not a big deal

I learned about it yesterday and now I’m mad

[007]

It's not even a known record whatsoever lol not a big deal

But that's the best part about it! We were literally 1 point away from a record that no one had even heard of until yesterday
