Alex Caruso just flew halfway across the half-court to slap a ball out of Marcus Smart’s hands in help defense, then scrambled all the way back to draw an offensive foul off Grant Williams, who was attempting to slow him down with a screen. Just bananas defensive vision. – 8:59 PM

#bulls just seem to be that team for #Celtics this year. Vucevic size and physicality, mid-range prowess and dribble penetration. DeRozan is tough matchup for their defense. – 8:57 PM

Celtics came in to Chicago with a gameplan to ignore Patrick Williams when he’s on offense. They’ve been sagging way off to clog the lane, not bothering to close out hard on his open looks. He’s 3-of-5 to start the game. pic.twitter.com/j0oqJ35ogu – 8:48 PM

Jaylen Brown said his Sunday tweet meant to support Kyrie Irving, not the demonstrator’s beliefs outside of Barclays Center, who wore shirts indicating they belong to the hate group “Israel United in Christ” https://t.co/U8ZpTaejGr pic.twitter.com/X32gUNNDrq – 5:55 PM

New @CLNSMedia — Robert Williams will return soon, and what Joe Mazzulla described to the Globe as a seamless fit into the #Celtics‘ lineup might be more complicated offensively.
Can Rob maintain Boston’s spacing? Will he start or come off the bench? clnsmedia.com/how-will-rober… – 4:38 PM

Marcus Smart said he’s playing tonight, but anticipates having to miss games occasionally during the remainder of the season to minimize ankle swelling.
Said he had an MRI that just showed a “really bad bone bruise” but no structural issue. – 3:44 PM

Luke Kornet became ready for a larger Celtics role with little flash.
His impact on the game and the style Boston wants to play became evident over the past month with expanded opportunity.
