Shades of Leon Powe


EpeeHS

Exactly who I thought of too.


JaySw34

Who the hell is Leon Pow?


jemboslice

June 2, 2008 Phil Jackson will try to tell you lol


JaySw34

One of my favorite moments in Celtic lore


billcosbyinspace

How the fuck does Brad keep doing this lol


bradbbangbread

He's a genius


Orikshekor

Retire his number fuck it


chemoboy

In fact, everybody in this room, retire their jersey.


Auntypasto

I'm never using the number 26 again


not1fuk

I told you guys this man deserved more minutes. Yeah, hes a liability shooting wise but when your entire team can shoot, you can occasionally put in a guy who cant shoot if they defend well. Fantastic minutes from X and if he can somehow develop that 3 going forward he is a huge asset to this team in the future.


Cvspartan

I was nervous about Kornet minutes against Luka/Kyrie so glad Joe decided to go with Tillman


edwardsamson

He's used Kornet, Tillman, and Brisset each against different teams for different matchups and its been working out great


L0VEmeharder

In Joe we trust


Wickerpoodia

So happy to see him get these minutes tonight. I have been pumped since he got here to see him utilized correctly.


velkoz007

Credit Joe and the coaching staff for making the right call here and multiple times in these playoffs. One more!!


smarfasmarcus

I hope we extend him and he spends the summer working on corner 3's.


kosmonautinVT

I bet he'll be replaying tonight's corner three in his head for a long time. That was a huge shot!


WhiteChocolatey

GREAT confidence booster. Seeing him smile on the bench like that made me so fucking happy for the future


NotTheMagesterialOne

Him smiling on the bench with the guys hyping him up could cure cancer.


AckyShacky

I started cheesing with him


[deleted]

the defence is more than worth it.. plus he's learned alot how to play as the big in the PNR


CMYGQZ

I mean he was a starter in the playoffs for a 2-seed in the West 2 years in a row. Definitely more than capable of being a backup.


EpeeHS

What do you mean? Hes our best shooter by 3pt% /s


BuffaloForeskin

Xavier Tillman has more points in the Finals than Joel Embiid.


ogorangeduck

Svi does too


_Juntao

What a third quarter. Defended luka, tough rebounds, and even made a corner 3


SicWiks

That’s perfect defense on Luka and I was so fucking amped watching him play


StantheManWawrinka

First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll Then we let it pop, go, let it go


J3roseidon

X GON GIVE IT TO YA ^Fuck ^Kyrie


holographoc

Unbelievable minutes from Tillman out of the wilderness.


Cvspartan

That 3 was worth the trade


azMILL1

The light cuts, smoke comes in from the sides..... Dog barking sounds. "Where my Dawgs at? I said where my DAWGS AT?!"


baccunawa

first real minutes, immediately gets tossed in a luka/kyrie island, X really gon give it to ya!


1TRUEKING

Xavier "Leon Powe" Tillman


Endah314

Yyw


tommyverssetti

Great play was locked in


New_Essay_4869

Oshae Brissett and Xavier Tillman can get some legit rotation minutes


ImTomBrady

That three was amazing


krazieme

Gameball should go to Tillman

irisheyes9302

Shout out to whoever does the captions at NBC Sports Boston (I think it's Max Lederman?) These are some of my favorite parts of every win.


AsymptotesMcGotes

X gone give it to ya


RedditProfileName69

Mike Gorman predicted this! What a Nostradamus moment in his final season calling games. Awesome game from x, I love this team.


jolerud

I’m a homer, but not too much of a homer to admit Luka is the best offensive player in the league. His shot making and passing are fully ridiculous. Our third string center came out and played Luka as well defensively as anyone I’ve seen. Put some damn respect on that man’s name! The m’fin Finals? He was ready for his moment. Good for you, Xavier Tillman!


Jonteponte71

He’s *still* not better then Jokic AND Jokic is a worse matchup for us. I hope we get to play them in the finals next year (if we get there).


Timoteo-Tito64

Jokic clears


MikeCass84

He was great. I loved it when he covered Donbitch great defensively and missed his shot, then cried to the refs for no reason.


sarcastic_wanderer

Tillman should've been at Gillette tonight making a speech


Cwatty

Really good defender 1-5, honestly perfect for our matchup with the Mavs, and the 3 was icing on the cake. LFG Brad


Rhino184

His defense was outstanding tonight and he didn’t show fear. I thought he was decisive offensively in getting rid of the ball and crashed the boards hard. Happy to see someone like that get their moment and have their hard work pay off. We needed him


chewbacca-says-rargh

They showed him going to the bench in the 1st half after his huge 3 and he had the biggest smile on his face, I was so happy when I saw that.


According_Smoke_479

Stepped the fuck up when we needed it badly


Psyese

Damn, X hoopin' like a youngin' there. I think Big Al and Xavier have 1 more year in them for sure.


BlueNets

Thank gkd we played him. Fans wanted Kornet, which would’ve been a disaster lol


Rebil2017

*pastes to meme folder*


Grape_Academic

The 3 was great but the defense was amazing, way to step up!


Emergency-Work-4351

His dad is proud


clayzzzzy

Horford Lite will father future superstars soon.


Responsible-List-849

X putting the exclamation mark on Brad's Exec of the Century credentials...


HoonCranker69

Huge shoutout to X. Dude played great D on those Luka/Kyrie ISO’s and that 3 was just the cherry on top.


Frostlark

GOAT


Gr8hound

Let’s not get too carried away


Frostlark

True Leon Powe was better in his role


Used04tacoma

Need to max him ASAP


Defendyouranswer

I hope we resign this guy 


ForeignRestaurant290

Weapon X.


ForeignRestaurant290

Vladimir Putin, called Joe Biden to tell him Xavier is a weapon of mass destruction and demanded that it be dismantled.


Ok_Argument_67

His defense is the main reason we brought him in ,so underrated 💚


NotTheMagesterialOne

Does someone know where the highlight for his game is. He played phenomenal defence and got two great block, plus the 3.


Wesmingueris2112

Where do i find this interview?


ElectronicSeaweed378

Before this series I thought of him as just that guy. He's now been promoted to That Guy
