What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Mike Prada @MikePradaNBA Boston’s wide bodies with low centers of gravity often give Jokic trouble by limiting his post-up game. But it’s another thing entirely when Robert Williams is also joining in on the fun. His defense late was outstanding. He’s finally emerging as the guy we all hoped he’d be. – 12:08 AM
Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA Anthony Edwards said he wanted the DeMar DeRozan defensive matchup tonight.
I asked why he wanted that matchup.
“I feel like I’m a great defender. To answer your question, I feel like I’m a great defender.” – 11:53 PM

Harrison Wind @HarrisonWind Can’t remember Nikola Jokic ever calling someone out publicly like this: “I think me and Will Barton played really bad. We didn’t have any chemistry. At the end of the day, we’re supposed to be the leaders…today, I had nine turnovers. It was me and a little bit of Will.” pic.twitter.com/Rp8ItflWQ1 – 11:27 PM
Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski Karl-Anthony Towns:
“I want the fans to know this. This is not panic button. This is not the old Wolves, pressing the panic button, everyone gotta do this, we gotta do that. We’re good.” – 11:10 PM
“I want the fans to know this. This is not panic button. This is not the old Wolves, pressing the panic button, everyone gotta do this, we gotta do that. We’re good.” – 11:10 PM
Michael Singer @msinger Asked Nikola Jokic if he’s tired: “Who cares?”
Proceeds to ask a bunch of people off camera if they’re tired.
“I think everybody’s tired. … That doesn’t need to be excuses for the mistakes.” – 10:46 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef Patrick Beverley has been talking smack all night. Just tried DeMar DeRozan, getting into his jersey a bit before an inbounds play
DeRozan hit a fallaway middy over him on the ensuing possession, then gave him the ‘too little’ downward point. Smiles all around – 10:13 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe DeMar DeRozan throws the “too small” gesture back at Patrick Beverley after sinking a turnaround jumper over him – 10:13 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA Rob Williams has made such a leap as a defender. All the highlight stuff that makes him special is still there. But the leap is that he doesn’t jump at everything anymore. Previous years, Jokic would have fouled him out in about five minutes in a straight 1-on-1 situation. – 10:10 PM
KC Johnson @KCJHoop This is DeMar DeRozan’s 18th 30-point game, tying him with Devin Booker for 6th in NBA.
That’s five 30-point games in a row, which ties the longest streak of his career, – 10:09 PM

Brian Robb @BrianTRobb Rob Williams really held his own down the stretch against Jokic. Very encouraging outing for him against the MVP candidate, a guy who has given him all kinds of issues in past years. – 10:08 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA Celtics win 108-102. 7 straight wins.

Gary Washburn @GwashburnGlobe #Celtics again are the better team down the stretch, beat #Nuggets 108-102 for their seventh straight win. Tatum 24, Smart 22, White 15, RWilliams 15 pts,16 rebs and 3 blk; Brown 12; Jokic 23 pts,16 rebs, 11 ast; Gordon 17, Campazzo 14, Barton 13. – 10:00 PM
Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs This is what the defense looks like against the Nuggets with Facu on the floor. Every other player has to handle potential double teams. Choosing to ride with this and having 3 players crash down on Jokic while giving him no on-ball shooting help is a brutal way to end this game. pic.twitter.com/mPfDVD4a1P – 9:58 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA Rob man…what a night.

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports Was starting to slip away from #Bulls, but pair of Coby White 3s put them up 92-91 after 3Qs. Vucevic has 24-8-6, DeRozan 19, Green 17; Edwards 24-7-6 for Minn – 9:46 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA Guys on both sides have missed jumpers by a mile tonight.
Also, Tatum has been so good about attacking lately. That’s not great to settle for that stepback against Jokic. – 9:38 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe Patrick Beverley picks Zach LaVine’s pocket to set up KAT for a transition dunk, then sprints back to talk trash directly in Zach’s face. – 9:36 PM
John Karalis @John_Karalis Tech on JaMychal Green so Boston leads by 2 w/7:00 to go and Jokic back in the game.
Let’s see if they can close it out – 9:32 PM

Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor Pacers losing Isaiah Jackson — who was very good in the first half — to an ankle injury has shown up here in the second half. Tristan Thompson hasn’t been nearly as effective. – 9:14 PM
Sean Grande @SeanGrandePBP 71st career triple-double for Nikola Jokic (15-12-10), and he does it in Boston tonight with 3:52 left int he 3rd quarter.

Michael Singer @msinger The Nuggets haven’t really run any offense the last seven minutes of the game. It’s come down, jack up a 3. Dangerous recipe to lose the lead during the Joker minutes. – 9:09 PM
John Karalis @John_Karalis 13-2 run and now Boston has the lead, which is big because we’re about to get into Jokic bench time soon and a real chance to build on it – 9:07 PM
Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports #Bulls have the Big Three rolling — DeRozan 17 pts, Green 15, Vucevic 12. LaVine has only 2, though, and Bulls lead Minn 60-59 at half.
Anthony Edwards acting like he has something to prove so far, with 19.
Might be a close call on that 241 total tonight – 9:06 PM

John Karalis @John_Karalis 6-0 run has Robert Williams fingerprints all over it. Nice fight at the end there to keep going at Jokic for the put back – 9:02 PM
Brian Robb @BrianTRobb Some encouraging aggressiveness by Rob Williams down low there, going right at Jokic with his offensive putbacks – 9:01 PM
Michael Gallagher @MikeSGallagher After a 0.0 usage rate in his last game, Derrick Favors going off (by Favors standards) against Embiid should probably rule out Embiid for MVP.
Weaker offensive centers continue to have big games against the 76ers. – 8:47 PM
Weaker offensive centers continue to have big games against the 76ers. – 8:47 PM
Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs Denver’s up 9 despite 14 turnovers (7 by Jokic). The rest of Denver’s offensive attack is immaculate. The #1 scoring defense in the league is not slowing them. If they can hold onto the ball in the 2nd half it should be a good result. Good to see Barton get a couple buckets late. – 8:43 PM

Tom Westerholm @Tom_NBA It’s truly wild how much positive impact an MVP-caliber player like Jokic has on his team even when he has seven turnovers. – 8:32 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe Vooch getting things done in the midrange at the start of this one. He’s 4-4 from the field so far tonight. – 8:27 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA I know Nuggets fans know this, but there really are two different Denver teams:
The good one when Jokic and most of the starters are out there.
The bad one when Jokic and most of the starters sit. – 8:24 PM

John Karalis @John_Karalis Jokic already has 6 assists. Celtics have to make sure they’re helping appropriately and from good angles. They can’t just give Jokic obvious, clear lanes he can see a mile away – 8:23 PM

Harrison Wind @HarrisonWind Nuggets going with Austin Rivers over Davon Reed and JaMychal Green over DeMarcus Cousins tonight on their second unit. Early results are not good. Celtics go on a 7-2 run to close the quarter after Nikola Jokic checks out. – 8:08 PM
Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs Denver really needs to take care of the ball. Jokic is goin for a quadruple double at this rate, but turnovers as the 4th category is not great. – 7:59 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA Grant is guarding Jokic now. Grant’s best game of a difficult sophomore season came when he helped lock up Jokic in a big road win. Curious to see if he can similar success again. – 7:59 PM
Michael Singer @msinger That’s 5 turnovers so far from Nikola Jokic, to go along with 7 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in 8 minutes. – 7:59 PM
Michael Singer @msinger Bones already changing the speed of Denver’s starters. He helped create Joker’s put-back layup by corraling the defensive board and pushing it. Encouraging start. – 7:48 PM
John Karalis @John_Karalis 12-2 run for the Nuggets who hit a couple of 3’s (one where Jeff Green had like 5 seconds to shoot). Jokic is backing down in the post and passing out of that to find guys open. Need to make things uncomfortable him there – 7:47 PM
Kelsey Russo @kelseyyrusso Not a great first quarter for the #Cavs on the defensive end. Cavs gave up 47 points to the Pacers, who shot 10 of 12 from 3.
Cavs shot 9 of 19 (47.4%) from the field and 4 of 6 (66.7%) from 3. Kevin Love had three of the Cavs’ 3s and has a 10 early points.
Indy leads 47-28. – 7:37 PM
