The Celtics' 5 game win streak comes to an end after a true tale of two halves. They lost 116-101 after being up 67-60 in the first half. They scored 35 points in the first quarter and just 34 points in the entire second half.... They shot 15 for their last 54 which is just 27% and ended the game at 38.6% from the field which is their lowest of the year. JB and Walsh combined for 50 of the teams 101 points and did it on a very efficient 66% from the field and 62% from 3 so that really goes to show you how poorly everyone else shot in this one.... Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma were unstoppable and shifted this game entirely for the Bucks. We break it all down along with a full player analysis in the podcast.

The Celtics beat the Raptors 121-113 and have moved into 3rd place in the Eastern Conference!!!! After an 0-3 start to this season, I don't think anybody expected this type of turnaround and certainly not this fast but here we are. I did say coming into this season that this team was going to be a lot of fun to watch but they probably weren't going to be much more than a .500 team. I was certainly wrong about the record but I was definitely right about how much fun this team has been. Mazzulla has these guys all bought in and playing their hearts out and it has been awesome to see so many guys on different nights contributing to their success. Derrick White and JB were huge in tonight's win but they really did get contributions all over the place. White had some clutch shots and defensive plays down the stretch and JB was 6-6 from the FT line in the 4th solidifying this win.

The Lakers were without Luka, LeBron and Smart and it certainly showed as the Celtics steamrolled them 126-105. JB led the way again with 30pts 8reb and 8ast and his playmaking was on full display tonight. White hit some timely baskets and the Celtics got contributions up and down the lineup which was fun to watch.There were a ton of individual player performances to talk about but the majority of it comes down to shot making. The Celtics shot 54% from the field and 53% from 3 and are going to be really hard to beat when that is the case!

No JB, No Problem! Okay, yes it was the Wizards and yes they were injured but my goodness did this team show out. D White had a great game leading the way with 30pts 7reb and 9ast and looked like vintage D White which was a great sign and hopefully a sign of things to come. Jordan Walsh continued his brilliant play creating a new career high in pts with 22 to go alongside 7reb 2stl and a blk. While those two really shined, we had 7 guys in double digits so got contributions up and down this roster which was great to see with JB out. Queta and Hugo were probably my two favorite guys to watch out there after White and Jordan so make sure to tune into the full podcast to hear about that as well as other player performances!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics pull off another crunch time win over the Knicks 123-117 and this was a rollercoaster through and through! The Celtics found themselves down big early after a brutal 32-21 1st quarter but put up two monster quarters after that due to a scorching hot JB who ended the game with 42pts including 18 in the 2nd and 15 in the 3rd!As impressive as he was for the majority of this game, I think the real story of tonight is the play of Hugo, Walsh and Minott! Hugo completed shifted the energy in the 2nd quarter making every huge play defensively, Minott did that in the 2nd and 4rd while hitting some huge shots and then Jordan Walsh was arguably our clutch performer. Jordan had a huge offensive rebound and putback on a Minott miss and JB miss in back to back possessions to go up 109-101 and then had a huge steal next possession and then ended his night with a phenomenal finish at the rim putting the C's up 115-110 along with a huge rebound late in the game.

The Celtics beat the Cavs 117-115 and Pritchard put on a show!!! Despite an immense amount of hate from some fans, he puts up 42pts on a crazy efficient 15-22 from the field and 6-11 from 3! There was nothing he couldn't do in this game. He finished at the rim, from deep and had a bunch of his midrange shots with 6 big FTs sprinkled in there as well. This really was a huge game for him.JB, while is wasn't his most efficient night, put up a 19pt 12reb 11ast TRIPLE DOUBLE! Jordan Walsh contributed a ton with a 14pt 11reb double double and Anfernee Simons stepped up in a major way in the first half as well.

The Celtics lost 119-115 to the Timberwolves despite a JB masterclass. JB led the way with 41pts 6reb 7ast and was efficient doing it shooting 53% from the field and 45% from 3. He also had a huge pullup 3 to tie the game at 110 capping a Celtics 12-0 run before the Timberwolves pulled away. This game was also one of the best Queta games we have seen in his career. Queta scored 19pts and added 18rebs and 2blks. Its certainly a tough way to lose when you have 2 guys put on incredible performances but it was one of the more fun games to watch.

WOWW!! The Celtics snap the Pistons 13 game win streak in a 117-114 thriller!! This game was back and forth the entire way and ended with a huge clutch time win with huge performances from White, JB and Baylor. Derrick White had a lackluster first half scoring just 2pts on 0-3 from the field but erupted for 25pts in the second half including 11 pts in the final 4:30. JB had a 33pt double double and Baylor played a really good game on both sides of the ball.This was a huge test for the C's. The Pistons are a big team that rebounds really well and we came into the game without Queta and had a bad Luka Garza game and still came away with the win despite the Pistons grabbing 21 offensive rebounds. A great 3pt shooting night and timely baskets put the Celtics forward and you love to see it especially against a team like Detroit!

The Boston Celtics put on an offensive clinic on November 23rd, defeating the Magic 138-129.

We break down the masterclass performances from the team, including Jaylen Brown's strong finish, the excellent playmaking from Pritchard, and the dominant presence of Minott in the paint.   Despite their 26-point advantage, this game turned into a nail-biter as the Magic mounted a furious fourth-quarter rally, cutting the lead down to six in the final minute. It took pure clutch heroics to secure the victory: Jaylen Brown scored 10 straight points to keep the team afloat.

Dive into the details of the Celtics' tough 113-105 loss to the Nets from November 21st. We break down a game that began with a promising 28-22 Celtics lead in the first quarter before things spiraled with a devastating 11-2 run by the Nets to start the second, capped off by a costly turnover that put Boston behind 62-53 at the half. The third quarter proved to be the turning point, featuring a crucial timeout from Coach Mazzulla and a game-altering 19-4 Nets run after Jaylen Brown picked up his fifth foul.   In this episode, we dissect how the Celtics made a gutsy push to get the score to 96-94 in the fourth quarter, only to be shut down by a late-game barrage from MPJ, who effectively "killed the Celtics" in the final frame. We look at standout performances, including the hustle plays and monster dunks from Queta and the strong effort from Simons, while also analyzing the impact of Brown's foul trouble and the overall turnover issue that plagued the team. Tune in as we give our final big-picture observations on the narrative, coaching, and key moments from this frustrating night.This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

This week on LoanOfficerPodcast.com, Chris Johnstone breaks down one of the most important industry shifts we will experience in our lifetime: the rise of AI-powered search, customer service, and referral generation.   We're no longer talking theory. AI is already recommending mortgage lenders, generating full 1003 applications, and reshaping how homebuyers shop for real estate and financing. Chris explains why this transition will move faster than Google's rise — and what loan officers must do now to stay relevant and win.   3 Big Takeaways:   AI is becoming the new search engine: Homebuyers are already asking ChatGPT who to work with — and choosing its recommendations. Authority scoring now determines who AI recommends: Loan types, local content, and weekly training signals shape whether AI sees you as an expert. This shift is moving fast — faster than the Google era: Loan officers who adapt early will dominate. Those who wait risk becoming the next Blockbuster.     Don't fall behind the curve. This episode could be the competitive edge you need in 2025.

If you feel like you're working twice as hard for half the results, it's not the market holding you back. It's the inner work you haven't done yet.In this solo episode of The 360 Experience podcast, Tim Braheem takes you deep into the real engine behind every originator's success: the 60,000–90,000 thoughts they think each day, and the emotions and energy those thoughts create.So many loan officers struggle with call reluctance, fear of rejection, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and burnout. Tim explains why these patterns have nothing to do with scripts or skill, and everything to do with old belief systems running silently in the background.This is the inner game behind the outer results.Top Takeaways for Loan Officers:1️⃣ Why 80–90% of your thoughts today are the same ones you had yesterday, and how those loops directly influence production, relationships, and mindset.2️⃣ How survival patterns formed early in life (perfectionism, people-pleasing, avoiding conflict) become hidden blockers in business, and how to rewire them.3️⃣ A practical framework for creating space between stimulus and response so you stop reacting, start responding, and lead from a calm, grounded, high-energy state.Links to purchase the books Tim Mentioned: The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor FranklABOUT TIM BRAHEEMWith more than 25 years of experience as a highly successful mortgage professional, industry leader, educator, and life coach, Tim Braheem is committed to engaging with people on a deep level and helping them uncover the barriers they have placed in the way of having the level of success they deserve in both their business and personal lives.FOLLOW Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/tbraheem/LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/timbraheemTHE LOAN ATLASJOIN ► https://go.theloanatlas.com/membership FOLLOWInstagram ► https://www.instagram.com/theloanatlas/YOUTUBE ► https://www.youtube.com/@LoanAtlas----------

The Boston Celtics secured a solid 113-99 win over the Nets on November 18th, but this was a game of two halves. The Celtics started slow, falling behind by 10 points early before rallying to tie the game at the end of the first quarter. Despite shooting lights out in the first half (61% from the field and 51% from three), Boston went into the break with only a 62-61 lead, largely due to sloppy play, giving up 12 turnovers that led to 17 Nets points and allowing 22 fast-break points. We'll dive into the early struggles and the team's high-octane but messy offensive performance that kept the game tight through the first 24 minutes.   The C's ultimately pulled away with a decisive defensive effort and clutch individual performances in the second half. The turnaround started early in the third quarter thanks to the defensive spark from Derrick White, who delivered two steals and a crucial block to put the team ahead. Jaylen Brown took charge offensively with 17 third-quarter points and put the game out of reach with a late dagger three in the fourth. The team's defense was lights-out in the final frame, holding the Nets without a field goal for over seven minutes.

The Celtics vs. Clippers matchup quickly turned into a tale of two games, starting with an early 24-point Boston blow-out. After going up 37-30 in the first, the Celtics opened the third quarter with an 8-0 run, extending their lead to a seemingly insurmountable 71-49. However, a massive 23-7 run by the Clippers immediately closed the gap, turning the blowout into a nail-biter and setting the stage for a dramatic fourth quarter with the Celtics barely hanging on to a 90-85 lead.   The final minutes were defined by clutch plays and chaos, with the Celtics needing a late 9-0 run to hold off the charging Clippers. JB (who scored 13 points in the fourth) and Derrick White (who hit a monster three and two huge free throws) were key, but it was the final seconds that sealed the win. After two incredible back-to-back threes from James Harden made the score 119-118, Payton Pritchard hit two final free throws to secure the 121-118 victory. Tune in as we break down the spectacular collapse and the thrilling finish that saw the Celtics ultimately prevail.This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics blow the doors of the Grizzlies 131-95 and we finally got to see 48 minutes of great basketball. Granted, it came against a bad Grizzlies team that was also decimated with injuries but you have to love seeing good basketball regardless. Pritchard led the way in this one with 24pts alongside 6reb and 9ast and was making some insane passes out there getting everyone involved. This was also the first time this season where Derrick White truly looked like his old self which is great to see!This was another game where Queta and Luka Garza really played well contributing 13pts 8reb and 14pts 7reb respectively. Because of their strong play, the Celtics did out rebound Memphis 58-41 in this game! Overall, there are a lot of strong performances and not a lot of negative to talk about which isn't how a lot of these early season games have gone lol. The Celtics move to 6-7 on the year and have a very winnable stretch of basketball ahead of them!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics fall to the 76ers in another nailbiter 102-100 and fall to 5-7 on the season. The Celtics out rebounded Philly 53-44 and only gave up 8 offensive rebounds. They also only gave up 8pts off their 11 turnovers and held Philly to just 102 points. On most nights, that SHOULD result in a win BUT the Celtics shot horribly in this one. They shot 39% from the field and 34% from 3. They didn't take a lot of 3s but they did miss a lot of wide open shots. The Celtics once again got a huge spark off the bench from Jordan Walsh and Anfernee Simons and even Garza had another really solid game. JB and Derrick White both had slow starts to the game but had monster 3rd quarters that got the Celtics right back in it. Outside of the horrible shooting, late game execution wasn't what you wanted to see. We only gave up 8 oreb BUT one of them was to Oubre with 8 seconds left and his putback put Philly up 102-100. After that, JB caught the ball heading towards the sideline and was forced to pass the ball to White who got it tipped away from Drummond and they barely got a shot off so it certainly left a lot to be desired.

The Celtics come up with a great 111-107 win over the Magic and this one was fueled by the excellent play of our bench. The Player of the Game in my eyes in Luka Garza who ended the night with 16pts 8reb 3ast and a steal and came up huge down the stretch of this game but also helped fuel a 13-0 run mid fourth to give the Celtics an 11pt lead. Anfernee Simons added 25pts in this one all of which came in the first half and he single handedly not only kept us in the game but got us the lead in the second quarter. Jordan Walsh was also incredible adding 6pts 6reb 4ast and 2stl including some huge plays down the stretch including a dagger 3 to go up 110-105 with 12 seconds left so very impactful performance from him.JB continued playing at a high level with 27pts in this one and we got a really good 4th quarter from Derrick White as part of his 21pt 3stl game. White was a true menace on the defensive side all night alongside Jordan Walsh and Hugo Gonzalez. This wasn't a perfect game but it felt damn good after the last couple from this team! The Celtics improve to 5-6 on the season with games against Philly and Memphis on this short week.This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics fall to the Magic 123-110 in an ugly game both offensively and defensively. Pritchard and JB both contributed a lot offensively scoring 32pts and 27pts respectively but they didn't get a whole lot from others and JB didn't really contribute in the 4th quarter either. The bright spot in todays game was the fact that it seems like Pritchard has broken out of his shooting slump so if that continues and White can also break out of his, the Celtics might be in a better spot.With all that being said, the Celtics gave up 17 3pt makes to a team that averages 10.4 and 31 FT attempts to a team that averages 24 so the Magic were really bullying the Celtics in this one. It was certainly another ugly loss dropping the Celtics to 4-6 but they have a chance at revenge on Sunday so hopefully they come out better!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics blew the doors off of the Wizards 136-107 behind monster performances from JB and Minott! JB led the way with 35pts 5reb and 5ast and started this game red hot scoring on 16 of the teams first 20pts and never seemed to slow down! Minott scored a career high 21pts tonight and was a menace defensively in his most aggressive game of the year. Pritchard scored 16 of his 18 points during their huge 2nd quarter run and Queta added a beautiful 15pt 12reb 5ast game. This is by far the best a big has played for the Celtics all season long. It was certainly an ugly first quarter but the Celtics cleaned up all of their mistakes and played a near flawless 3 quarters after it. The Celtics move to 4-5 on the year with back to back games against the Magic coming up! This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics fall to the Jazz 105-103 and the final play perfectly exemplified tonight's game. Nurkic gets an offensive rebound and putback to take the lead with .6 seconds left. The Celtics wasted yet another excellent game from JB who ended the night with 36pts. This game was a nail biter down the stretch and the Celtics did get screwed a bit with a no call on a play where JB was so blatantly tripped it's almost laughable but that was far from the reason they lost this game. While White and Pritchard did (sort of) break out of their shooting slumps shooting 37.5% and 36.4% from 3 respectively, which is far better than where they have been this season, the Celtics ended the night shooting just 41% from the field and 21% from 3 and allowed 15 offensive rebounds in this game. I don't care how good JB played, it is going to be very hard to win any games like that. The only reason it was close is because of how bad the Jazz are lol. This was a frustrating loss to a team we should've beat.This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Fed just cut rates again so why are mortgage rates climbing?

Well I didn't have high expectations for this game but it went worse than I was expecting lol. The Celtics lose to the Rockets 128-101!!! It was the second night of a back to back and this is an extremely athletic, big and very good Rockets team. With all that said, they killed us on the boards and shot lights out and this game was basically over mid third. So much so that none of the starters played at all in the 4th quarter outside of Minott who is still kind of in”prove-it mode”. Honestly there aren't a lot of great individual performances in this one but it was great seeing Minott's energy and continued success. It was also super encouraging seeing Baylor finally get into a rhythm. He ended the night leading the team in scoring with 17 points. Certainly a tough loss but we're onto the next AND we're finally heading towards a 4 game stretch against much easier competition than what we've had to face so far!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics beat the 76ers 109-108 in a Halloween bloodbath! The Celtics led by as many as 24 in this game and certainly struggled to score down the stretch after a scorching hot start. The scored 68pts in the first half shooting 56% from the field and 42% from 3 and those numbers plummeted to just 41pts on 32% from the field and 20% from 3 in the 2nd half. The late game execution was less than ideal especially in the last 30 seconds including some missed free throws and a disjointed inbounds play at the end but the Celtics pulled off a huge win!Jaylen Brown led the way once again with 32pts on 68% shooting and 57% from 3 adding to his insanely efficient start to this season!! Outside of JB, the Celtics got solid contributions across the board including 15pts from both White and Pritchard. Although their 3pt shooting was horrible once again in this game, they impacted the game all over the place. Minott had a huge impact on the boards and Simons helped a ton with his 19pts off the bench. This was a great team win with contributions up and down the roster! After a sluggish 0-3 start, the Celtics have now rolled 3 straight wins to get back to .500 which is great to see!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics secured a 125-108 victory over the Cavaliers overcoming a hot-shooting start by the Cavs. Cleveland was lights-out from beyond the arc in the first quarter, going 10-for-12 on three-pointers, which helped them hold a slight 42-40 lead despite Boston shooting 56% from the field. The momentum shifted dramatically in the second quarter when the Celtics closed the half on a decisive 20-3 run. This dominant stretch gave Boston a 75-60 lead at the break, fueled by 50% shooting from three, 53% overall from the field, and a strong passing game with 20 assists on 26 made field goals. Crucially, the Celtics controlled the paint, outrebounding the Cavs 22-13 and limiting them to only two offensive rebounds in the first half.The Celtics maintained control through the second half, leading 98-85 after the third quarter. JB was a scoring force, finishing the first half with 22 points, including an insanely deep 3 to close out the second quarter, and reaching 28 points by the end of the third. Derrick White provided key buckets and ended the game with 19 points, while Sam Hauser knocked down seven three-pointers to contribute 21 points. The team's strong play continued into the fourth where the Celtics won another quarter 27-20! Overall, the victory was characterized by excellent ball movement, perimeter shooting, and superior rebounding, particularly in the first half.This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics end their losing skid with a 122-90 win over the Pelicans. After losing 3 straight primarily because of rebounding issues, the Celtics come out and really put a stranglehold on the boards out rebounding the Pelicans 54-35!They still gave up 11 offensive rebounds but this was a much better effort on the glass and one that is certainly encouraging given how poorly they have looked thus far. Anfernee Simons led the way scoring wise with 25pts and hit some huge shots in this one down the stretch. Offense rebounding did let the Pelicans widdle down the lead to just 5 points in the 4th quarter but the Celtics responded with a 20-2 run to really put the Pelicans away. This was by far the most complete game they have played this season. Let's see if they can build off this momentum!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

The Celtics fall to the Pistons 119-113 and fall to 0-3 on the season. This was yet another loss that comes because of their rebounding efforts. The final 6 possessions of this game for the Pistons resulted in 5 offensive rebounds and 10 second chance points. If they clean that up, this game is won easily for the Celtics. Coming into this season, I think it was pretty apparent that championship aspirations were off the table based on the quality of roster we have after this offseason but their ceiling is certainly higher than what it is right now. We knew rebounding was going to be an issue but I don't think anyone really knew how big of an issue it was going to be. IF, and I know this is a big if, the Celtics were even a mediocre rebounding team they could be sitting at 2-1 instead of 0-3 right now. It's going to be a long season so strap in!

The Boston Celtics' first quarter against the Knicks offered a glimpse of a smooth performance, as the team jumped out to a 30-22 lead with great ball movement and pace. However, the game spiraled into an absolute nightmare in the second quarter. The Knicks dominated with a brutal 42-14 run, fueled by an 11-0 and a 17-0 burst. Boston struggled with turnovers and could not stop the Knicks from scoring 16 fast break points and grabbing 12 offensive rebounds in the first half. This collapse led to a massive 64-44 halftime deficit.   Though the Celtics were unable to mount a full comeback, they showed flashes of resilience in the second half, spurred on by picking up the full-court defense in the fourth quarter. Individually, there were highlights, including big three-pointers from Pritchard that helped stop a Knicks run and another that began to close the gap in the final period. Jaylen Brown hit some tough shots, including an early third-quarter three and a pull-up three late in the fourth. Additionally, Hugo provided a boost with excellent defense and his first NBA bucket. Ultimately, the deficit was too large to overcome, and the Knicks secured the 105-95 victoryThis podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.

WE ARE BACK!!! AFTER A YEAR LONG HIATUS, BOSTON CELTICS GAME DAY RECAP IS BACK AND SO ARE THE CELTICS!The Celtics dropped their season opener 117-116 to the 76ers in a heartbreaking fashion. After building a 13 pt lead, Philly led by Tyrese Maxey and Rookie Sensation VJ Edgecombe, went on a tear and pulled off a gritty win in Boston. Losing to Philly always hurts but it hurts a bit more when Embiid is a shell of himself. He was truly horrible tonight but Maxey and Edgecombe combined for 74 points!!There were a lot of positives to take from today as well as some negatives. From a positive standpoint, this team is going to be fun to watch. They pushed the pace, got out in transition, rebounded significantly better than I was expecting because of a gang rebounding mentality where they all crash and they still have a good offensive punch. From a negative standpoint, losing an All NBA Defender like Jrue Holiday is going to be a problem against guard heavy lineups like this 76ers team. Their transition defense, although it improved the second half, was horrible in this game leading to 21 pts. Overall, it was a fun game to watch but there is still a lot to learn about this team!This podcast is brought to you by me, Guy DePlacido.
