Ime Udoka said that Rob Williams wasn’t dealing with anything physical. He said that the team was trying to manage Williams’ minutes, and him not coming back in was the result of Al Horford making big plays late in the game. – 11:06 AM

I love Marcus Smart. Always have, always will. And he’s a modern point guard, so stop with all the “Need a point guard stuff.”, especially when you don’t even know what that means in today’s game.
But 4-of-15 and 1-of-9 doesn’t cut it. Just a brutal game from him. – 11:59 PM

Celtics finally back to taking advantage of Lowry as the low man with quick cuts to draw Bam up and one-time oop it to Rob Williams, who can grab it out of the sky where nobody else can go. – 10:27 PM

I swear the Celtics continually try to throw lobs higher and higher to see if Robert Williams can come down with it. He somehow does every time. – 10:27 PM

Four fouls on PJ Tucker.
Marcus Smart gets one to fall and has a chance at a four-point play. Great pass by Al Horford. – 10:12 PM

Robert Williams is just an incredible rim protector. Jimmy Butler had Brown beaten. Williams comes over and changes the layup…. – 9:46 PM

Marcus Smart is telling all of the Celtics to calm down after that foul call against Derrick White.
Zach Zarba just warned both teams about complaining. But that was a very soft foul call against White. – 9:41 PM

Rob Williams just affected or blocked four shots on one possession, which 1) wow Rob 2) the Heat got four shots on one possession (and still have the ball). – 9:07 PM
