Locked On Celtics - Daily Podcast On The Boston Celtics - A podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, John Karalis
Yes, the Celtics swept the Pacers last year, but those games were all close and their unpredictable offense and diverse scoring threats could pose a significant challenge for the Celtics. With Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown taking a combined 29 three-point attempts against the Pacers, John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm question their shot selection, especially when Derrick White was on fire, scoring 23 points on just nine shots. The episode also explores Payton Pritchard's candidacy for Sixth Man of the Year, highlighting his impactful contributions off the bench. Additionally, the discussion touches on the Celtics' potential for individual accolades, including All-Star nods for Derrick White and MVP consideration for Tatum.
