Boston Celtics Overcome Slow Start to Dominate Wizards

The Celtics started off a bit shaky against the Wizards but turned things around for a solid 122-102 win. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown really stepped up after a rough start, with Tatum dropping 25 points and grabbing 11 boards, while Brown put up 27 points.

Derrick White deserves a shoutout as the unsung hero, making some key plays when the team was struggling early on. And let’s not forget the bench! Payton Pritchard and the backup big guys—Luke Kornet, Neemias Queta, and Xavier Tillman—really brought their A-game.

John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal has all that and what the Celtics can learn from this one, like starting strong and not taking any team lightly. Stick around for some fun insights and a breakdown of how the Celtics can keep this momentum going!

  1. Yes, there might be lessons but what I’m seeing is the same team as last year they are consistent every night and that’s all we can ask for I mean there was a few things here and there we need fixing but at the end of the day we still playing for something and you can see it in their way they plan they want it backI mean this will be great. I’m excited about it and you are too go Celtics.

  2. Its great to look for lessons because the team has to be better than last year to be able to repeat. Not record-wise, but just better. Because every other team in the league is gunning for them and studying them. How do you deal with that? Well, just be better than you were. Its hard to repeat, most other championship teams do not get better, most actually get worse. Not only did we retain almost everyone, we simply might be better just based on the individual improvement of our young stars.

    I hope they dont take their foot off the pedal this year. Ideal scenario is be ahead of everyone else you could rest in your remaining games and have practice and experiements.

  3. See and that is exactly what you want to see on a night when Tatum’s jumper doesn’t fall. He was able to get to the rim, was active on the glass, and made the right passes all game. My biggest takeaway from this game the freeness Mazulla is letting the bench play with, I love it. Pritchard shot well from three and Tillman gave you what you hope he can provide often. NQ gave you great value for 14 minutes!

  4. @John thanks as always for these podcasts :). To me this could be a very scary year with JT Olympic debacle… and Jb's disrespect to not make any all defense teams or be asked to the Olympics….. the offseason seemed to go as tho coach Joe M cast a spell to make his go (as you said last week) "see what did i tell you." lol

  5. That 3rd quarter was an offense clinic. They interviewed Pritchard afterwards and asked him if he practices those half/three quarter/full court bombs and he said not at all. I was surprised at first but then thought he doesn’t overthink anything-just goes out there and plays. He’s so much looser now than he was first couple years and it’s obviously paid off. Thanks John! ☘️🔒
