Should be tough. We have lost to lesser teams coming off of back to backs. The Celtics are well coached, Stevens has them playing highly competitive ball, they shoot the three really well, and they're DEEP. I expect defensive ace Avery Bradley to cover Reggie. Reggie has to dominate the match up. As Reggie goes we go, but Reggie has to go HARD early.

I think the outside shooting of the Celtics' bigs, is going neutralize Dre's effectiveness. This game is going to rest on the play of Reggie, Mook, and Illy.

KCP and Ersan will have interesting matchups on the offensive end (if Bradley covers Jackson).

This will be tough the Celtics have a good perimeter defense so Dre really has to take advantage for us to win this one.

I always worry about the Celtics now. Great coaching along with some strong defensive and versatile players. It'll probably be a tough one that ends very close.

I envision a MONSTER game for Drummond tonight. A 25-25 kind of monster night.

I don't know if he WILL have one, but he needs to if we're going to win this one. The Celts run a bunch of guys out at center that are either soft or undersized.

Such a weird team in Boston. Undeniably solid, but weird.

Drummond is due a BIG game tonight. No big man standing in his way right now. He needs to pound it inside early in the game.

The NBA is getting softer. It's becoming a run and gun. If you can play solid defense and move the ball, you'll be good in this league. The half court days are going away.

If Drummond is going to have a big game, he needs to go out after it. Regardless of post up opportunities or missed hooks, he needs to gather up every rebound. He needs to get out on the break and beat the pack down the floor. We need to see him just out work everyone like we know he's capable of. If Drummond comes out with that sort of energy, he'll have an undeniable impact on the game. I'm really tired of seeing him go for his post ups, miss the shot, and trot back down the court half speed.

I hope to see him return to his beastmode! :evil:
