God, I NEEDED that.
After what seemed like an eternity, the Celtics returned to action to throttle the Orlando Magic, 124-97.
There was a lot to like tonight, starting with Jaylen Brown’s 21 points and career-high 8 assists. There was Jeff Teague (17 points), Semi Ojeleye (18 points), and FastPP (16 points).
The only thing this game lacked was a Tacko Fall three-pointer and we were a toe-length away from witnessing one.
I can handle a raging pandemic and a crumbling democracy, but do NOT take away my beloved basketball.

Some great names on this Orlando team – Bone, Bacon, Bamba, to name a few. Just my thoughts.

This is Boston's most consistent game this season. Completely in control throughout. No real lapses. constant effort.

Ref with no soul called Tacko's 3 a 2. So what if his toe was on the line? We all know the truth. https://t.co/jq7wZsCl6h
