What happened in Hawks-Pelicans? The three amigos have it covered
Jaylen said he played 10 minutes in the first half against Brooklyn because Joe Mazzulla was holding him accountable for playing poorly. But ... was that what really happened, or just how Jaylen needs to process it?

The Celtics turned the ball over way too much, but Derrick White's defense was incredible in the second half, Payton Pritchard is on a roll, and the Celtics moved above .500 for the first time this season. Here's my immediate reaction, and much more coming up later on the Locked On Celtics podcast.

The Celtics were up by as many as 24, but James Harden almost brought the Clippers all the way back, but his buzzer beater missed. Payton Pritchard, Jaylen Brown, and Derick White were all good in this game. Here's my quick reaction and a full podcast later on.

Celtics led by 24, lost it all, and ended up holding on for a one point win. They've won THREE IN A ROW and got a little revenge against Philly. Even with their late mistakes, they played great defense when it mattered and Jaylen was awesome again. More later on a full Locked On Celtics podcast.

Celtics get a huge win over the Cavs. They shot well, they got a great game from Payton Pritchard, Jaylen Brown dropped 30, and Josh Minott was in the middle of everything positive late in the game. It's a two game winning streak!! Full Locked On Celtics podcast coming up later!
