And what the national audience watched was a team that\u2019s decided to essentially tank and improve their chances of retaining their first-round pick and a team that\u2019s blending resting starters with seeking to clinch the No. 2 seed.<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/main><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Celtics\u2019 123-105 win was more able Joe Mazzulla\u2019s desire to give his second- and third-unit players quality minutes and rare opportunities as much as it was to give Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, and Jaylen Brown another night off in preparation for Saturday\u2019s showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers.<\/p>\n<p>And it was a sneaky important game for the Celtics as they try to create space from the New York Knicks. They were able to pick up 1\u00bd games over the past three days, and it could be more depending on New York\u2019s late Thursday against the Lakers.<\/p>\n<p>It was no surprise Mazzulla used his little-used reserves in such a situation, because the Celtics\u2019 coherent theme the past few years is to ensure that every player on the roster is reliable. He started two-way forward Drew Peterson, used Jordan Walsh for nearly 13 minutes, and threw in JD Davison and Xavier Tillman in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>But the most critical stretch was the nearly 30 minutes from rookie Baylor Scheierman, who scored a career-high 15 points on 5-for-10 shooting.<\/p>\n<p>Scheierman is no one-and-done. He\u2019s 24 and comes from this current generation that received the opportunity to play five full college seasons.<\/p>\n<p>There is more expected from Scheierman because of his age and college experience, and the Celtics have kept him on the roster for the past month, hoping he could emerge as a floor-stretching contributor that can defend and rebound.<\/p>\n<p>Many analysts lauded the Celtics for their late first-round drafting of Scheierman because of his versatility. Encouraging Thursday was his 3-for-7 clip from the 3-point line after starting out missing 14 of his first 15. The Celtics want Scheierman to shoot, play with confidence, chase down loose balls, and give them another productive wing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was great on both ends of the floor,\u201d Mazzulla said of Scheierman. \u201cI thought he passed up a couple of early shots when he was open. And when he got in rhythm he was able to make a couple.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut [he\u2019s] another guy that, regardless of how well he shoots, he\u2019ll be defined by the other stuff that he does \u2014 the rebounding, defense, the loose ball he chased down, the charge he took. I thought he played a well-rounded game.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"\">\n<figure id=\"img-4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"img-4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU-image\" src=\"https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 1440w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 1280w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 1024w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 820w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 600w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 420w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/4UAQJ4CDL6AVFVLZMTDT6JVQPU.JPG?auth=f43d47a0fe3318510011e1fb6801b532bdfa3d757e3932741ee380c956a03308&amp;width=1440 240w\" alt=\"In a game with not much fanfare, Celtics rookie Baylor Scheierman stated his case for more minutes - The Boston Globe\" \/><figcaption>Celtics forward Torrey Craig (right) emphatically slams this putback during the victory over the Sixers.Danielle Parhizkaran\/Globe Staff<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Because the Celtics have so many high salaried players and they live in the restricted second apron, it\u2019s critical to find players who are inexpensive and useful. Mazzulla plays the main guys so many minutes that finding time can be a difficult endeavor. But the coach has no sympathy for those who aren\u2019t prepared even when they didn\u2019t expect their chance.<\/p>\n<p>Preparation is a prerequisite for being a Celtics reserve. Throughout the past few weeks, Mazzulla has thrown Peterson, Scheierman, and Davison into competitive and meaningful games. It\u2019s a sign of trust, but also a test.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, the Celtics waived former second-round pick Anton Watson because they were not impressed with his development or satisfied with his improvement. And Mazzulla didn\u2019t even use Watson in garbage time when he spent a brief stint with the Celtics last week.<\/p>\n<div id=\"\">\n<figure id=\"img-36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"img-36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI-image\" src=\"https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 1440w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 1280w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 1024w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 820w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 600w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 420w, https:\/\/bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/36LY4OGUDB7DZUAK5FNGDNJQSI.JPG?auth=daf85ddb83853ea001410063af3123a8c2d7130388cb67072d9bfe59761c0c58&amp;width=1440 240w\" alt=\"In a game with not much fanfare, Celtics rookie Baylor Scheierman stated his case for more minutes - The Boston Globe\" \/><figcaption>Celtics reserve guard JD Davison (20) got 7 minutes of action against Philadelphia Thursday night.
