Episode Details

Boston Celtics blow past the Los Angeles Lakers as Payton Pritchard explodes for 30 points off the bench and stamps his legend status—are we witnessing a new sixth man star in the making? John Karalis of Celtics On SI dissects Pritchard's dynamic offensive evolution, clutch fourth-quarter shotmaking, and the confidence powering his breakout. Baylor Scheierman's underrated defense against Luka Dončić draws praise, while Jaylen Brown posts a quiet 32—could this combo propel Boston to a championship run? Key talking points include the Celtics’ suffocating defensive strategy limiting Luka Dončić to just 3 assists, the strategic choices between big men Neemias Queta and Nikola Vucevic, and why the team’s lack of a traditional "maestro" point guard hurts them sometimes. Karalis weighs in on Derrick White's hustle, player grades, and critical moments that could shape Boston’s playoff destiny. Don’t miss this in-depth analysis of the surging Celtics.
