4th haven't been great for the Celtics? +58 point differential there this season, 7th best in the NBA. Heat are -108, 2nd worst in NBA (Suns: -126).

Fucking prick, Reggie.
They had some stat showing the Cs were 22nd or something in the 4th.. but they have basically sat their starters for half of those fourth quarters because they’ve been up so much.. but Reggie does less than zero prep

I'd say they were heading for the exits, but judging by all the empty seats all game they never showed up to begin with.

I think it was 22nd in points scored, which is useless on it's own because the Celtics play slower than most (20th in pace), and their defense is exceptional.

I’m actually not sure about the Rozier fit tbh. He is obviously quick which tracks but he is much more ball-dominant than their usual type in this role. They win with guys running all over the floor to get open off ball movement and moving the D around. Talent upgrade sure but I don’t think it’s going to be some clear home run for them.

Joe literally doesn't know he can call a timeout and get the starters off the floor. No one has mentioned it in the group chat.
