Why Payton Pritchard does not pursue a Celtics record in the career performance

Payton Pritchhard's historical performance in the victory against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday evening achieved several new personal brands and a record of all time in Boston Celtics.

Pritchard came from the bank to pour 43 points into career opportunities when he and Derrick White, who fell 41, became the first Celtics duo, which in the same game both scored at least 40 points.

But there was a Celtics record that Pritchard had well in its visual line, but he only came shortly before.

Pritchhard knocked down 10 3 points, which was shy to bind Marcus Smart for the franchise mark. Pritchard only needed one more triple to get a share of the record that entered the fourth quarter, but he had the striving back to continue his name in the Celtics record book. Pritchhard played every 12 minutes of the fourth quarter, but only made one shot beyond the bow.

“I didn't even know that I had 10 three at the moment,” Pritchard told reporters, via NBC Sports Boston. “But I wouldn't have shot myself for it anyway, because then it only sets a new standard. So at some point I got something and hopefully I will break one day. “

In the fourth quarter, Pritchhard had the right attitude in his career evening when the Trail Blazers reduce a double -digit deficit to eight o'clock with about two minutes before the lead.

The team presented Pritchard at that moment.

“The biggest was just to get the W. They made a little thrust, so I wouldn't formate it that wasn't there,” said Pritchhard. “I have the feeling that this is disrespectful and my teammates are disrespectful. But when I got into the river and made a shot, it was a good shot for us and it broke it, then it is the right way to break it. “

Maybe next time for Pritchhard.
