Don't take the Jrue Holiday/Derrick White/Jaylen Brown/Jayson Tatum/Kristaps Porzingis lineup for granted
When healthy they were a truly elite lineup that couldn't be contained delivering #Banner18
NET Regular Season/Playoffs
23-24 +12.2/+20.7
24-25 +1.7/+51.1
#DifferentHere
In defense of Kristaps Porzingis the man has sacrificed his body and given the #Celtics all he has doing whatever he has been asked
Joe can use KP in limited spots vs Robinson but needs to not ask too much
Robinson NET w/ KP on +1.8
Robinson NET w/o KP off +38

@StoolGreenie This lineup has been seldom used but proven effective in spots against 1 big lineups v Dallas
Only used in 3 games for about 7 mins this season with a NET RTG of -24.2
Last postseason used in 10 games for about 18 mins with a NET RTG of +42.5
#DifferentHere#BelieveInBoston
Starting lineup: White/Holiday/Brown/Al/KP
They played well together in the regular season with a NET RTG of +16.3
Playoffs been a different story with NET RTG of -4.7
Whole team needs to step up tonight and can but it starts with this unit
#DifferentHere#BelieveInBoston
#Celtics strategy is to dominate early but #Boston fading late is nothing new, just more extreme this postseason:
NET RTG 1st Half/2nd Half (Var)
23-24 Reg +15.6/+7.7 (-7.9)
23-24 Post +15.2/+5.0 (-10.2)
24-25 Reg +12.6/+7.3 (-5.3)
24-25 Post +18.1/-1.6 (-19.7)

@RealBobManning Limited minutes for this group by in 11 regular seasons game they were a -21.2 NET RTG but in 5 playoff games they have posted a +42.1 NET RTG
Small sample size but could be effective if Mitchell Robinson isnt on the court
#Celtics are a great team when Tatum is on the court but they are still a very good team when he is not

#Celtics should be excited to have Sam Hauser back tonight
Hauser has been a +24.9 NET this postseason
Sam's impact is not a fluke as he posted a +16.6 NET during the Banner 18 run last year
Hauser's shot and hustle off the bench will provide a lift vs #Knicks#DifferentHere
#Celtics offense has disappeared v #Knicks
OFF RTG dropped from 131.1 in season v NY to 96.8 in Playoffs
Drop primarily attributed to Tatum who has seen his PPG/Shooting % drop from 33.5/59% to only 18/37%
Series aint over if Tatum can adjust. #believeinboston#DifferentHere
#Celtics must recommit to ball movement
Regular Season only 43% of PTS came unassisted. 67% of JT's & 60% of JB's PTS
Game 1 vs #Knicks 57% of BOS PTS came unassisted. 83% of JT's & 70% of JB's PTS
Ball cant be sticky in their hands for others to be effective
#DifferentHere
#Celtics were a +18.3 NET RTG vs the #Knicks this season and +9.6 NET vs everyone else
The matchup they took most advantage of? The player who was brought in to stop them...Mikal Bridges
Celtics were a +29.1 NET RTG this year when Bridges was on the court
#DifferentHere
#Celtics winning the OREB battle is critical vs Magic
Centers are cleaning glass when on court besides Kornet
SERIES AVG
NET OREB (BOS-ORL)
Kornet -3.2 (2.8-6.0)
Al +1.3 (8.3-7.0)
KP +2.5 (7.0-4.5)
Kornet is the only Celtic w/ a negative NET RTG this series
#DifferentHere
#Celtics need Hauser, Kornet and the bench to have another strong game today vs the Magic
In 2nd Q of Game 3 they put together a strong 5 minute 16-2 run with the White/Hauser/Tatum/Horford/Kornet unit on court
Bench production key to keeping everyone healthy
#DifferentHere
#Celtics collapsed in the 3Q w White/Brown/Tatum/KP/Horford on the court
This lineup has been used 12 times in 24-25 & has a -24 NET RTG
Shooting issues yesterday but this is a group that struggles mightily defensively...might be time to retire this grouping
#DifferentHere
During minutes #Celtics Pritchard was on the court this season NO OTHER player scored more points than him...even Tatum
Pritchard also accounted for 31% (scored 18% and assisted 13%) of points scored while he was on the court
A well deserved 6MOY Award Winner
#DifferentHere
Biggest improvement on #Celtics bench this season?
NET RTG 23/24 v 24/25
Pritchard - 11.1 v 9.5
Hauser - 13.5 v 10
Kornet - 8.3 v 15.1
It's Luke Kornet and its not close. C's are +5.1 on D & +1.7 on O w/ Kornet on court vs last year
Major impact w/ KP injuries
#DifferentHere
Biggest difference between this and last years #Celtics is the KP/JB/JT/Holiday/White unit
Last season: +13.9 NET
This season: -7.9 NET
3PT line is the key. Opps shooting +18% while Boston shooting -10%
Opps focused on forcing Holiday 3's (down 43% to 12%)
#DifferentHere
Queta making the most of his minutes lately and showing he is effective in the Timelord role
#Celtics are +6 NET when Queta is off the court and +31 with him on this season
Against Golden State Celtics were -50 with Queta off the court and +24 with him on
#DifferentHere
#Celtics start Double Big lineup last night w/o JB to mixed results vs #Hornets starters
Q1: +7 in 5 mins +57 NET
Q3: -12 in 6 mins -100 NET
GAME: -5 in 10 mins -22 NET
Success in Q1 attacking rim but CHA dominates Q3 forcing TOs and stretching BOS Defense
#DifferentHere
Kornet & Queta got a solid run with the #Cetlics starters with Al out last night
Both played well but Kornets unit more effective
JB/JT/White/Holiday/Kornet
+14.3 NET w/ 110.1 ORTG & 95.9 DRTG
JB/JT/White/Holiday/Queta
+3.3 NET w/ 132.9 ORTG & 129.6 DRTG
