Kristaps Porzingis looks good going through shootaround today

Jaylen Brown has his own handshake with every member of the Celtics — and even though he’s not playing tonight he’s still running through them

If Unrivaled looks empty on TV, it’s not — the place is completely full, but the only wall that doesn’t have fans just so happens to be the one behind the bench, which is most visible on the broadcast

Funny moment from last night — there was a quote in the Celtics locker room attributed to Jaylen Brown, and when @ByJayKing asked him about it, he said:

“I’m not even sure if I said that. They be putting words in my mouth. Whatever it takes to help inspire the team.”

Asked Joe Mazzulla about Derrick White’s big night:

“The way we get him looks is just empower him… I love watching him do that. It’s great watching his teammates empower him too, because they know that we need him.”

Asked Jason Kidd about his partnership with Jaylen Brown on Oakland XChange over the summer:

“I was moved by what he was trying to do, and wanted to be a part of that.”

“What he is — his vision of helping others is like no other. And so I want to be a part of that.”

Already lots of green in the building ahead of the finals rematch

I could get used to this

Jaden Springer still has last night’s energy

Back-to-back steals by Jaden Springer !!

Asked Jayson Tatum about balancing wanting free time on the road with opportunities like Kimmel:

“My agent, my team — they keep me busy. But, they’re things that I want to do, they just find opportunities for things that make sense for me.”

Asked Sam Hauser about if how teams are playing this year feels different:

“With us being the defending champs, everyone’s kind of getting up ready to play us more than maybe other teams…. We just have to be ready for that each and every night, knowing that we’re getting everyone’s best shot.”

Jordan Walsh said that the fact Celtics players bring their kids around shows the org culture:

“If a guy's bringing their kid around, they have a certain trust with the team and with the organization. I don't think you'd bring your kid around people you didn't trust and love.”

Kids from the West End House were just surprised by four Celtics players here at at at event at the Auerbach Center

Jordan Walsh, Neemias Queta, Drew Peterson, and Baylor Scheierman in the house and the kids are thrilled
