Boston has a chance to widen lead over Cavs and we need a loss. Hopefully both sides are happy tonight.

Don't let Thomas score more then 40
Lose by 7pt or less

I'm not as picky as you.

With Covington being out the rest of the year I don't see philly winning another game(they may get lucky and win one or two). But assuming they win one it'd most likely be against NY. Meaning NY gets a loss. All in all, it's going to be hard to get a top 6 pick if the magic win more than two games. Can almost guarantee they'll win their final home game against Detroit meaning we need to split against Brooklyn and lose the rest. Good luck

Jaylen Brown is starting, Avery Bradley is OUT. What happens when the Celtics draft 1st overall, do they plan on drafting this guy and keeping him? Or are they trading the #1 pick for a superstar?

I suppose they can do whatever they think is best for the franchise long-term. I really think other teams in the near future will look at their rebuild and try to replicate it. They managed all their assets so well and now they have all sorts of options...and they're a playoff team.

I think they keep it if it's one or two ultimately for $$ reasons.

I think if they got Fultz/Ball they say bye to Isaiah (and his future 200 million dollar deal), and let him and his rookie salary take over the reigns with Jaylen Brown.

Vuc is so frustrating to watch, all he does is whine.

They actually gave EP the assist on that pass off the backboard. That's one where I'd be willing to listen to arguments for both sides.

Payton and AG looking good early on. Love the chemistry they've been showing lately.

It's a bit of buddy ball I don't mind watching.

lol AG disgusted with that toss. I don't blame him.

Gordon maybe forcing a little bit now. Needs to keep making the extra pass

Fournier is just forcing up shots to try and get himself in the game. We might need to run a few plays to get him some good open looks and get him firing.

Not to kick of a Payton debate too early, but I think it's worth noting that Thomas took years to reach the point he's at now. In his early days he was putting up numbers next to Cousins but they weren't translating to wins. Now he's doing both.

Smart has to be the worst 3 point shooter that always hits threes against us.

With that make, Marcus Smart is now 17-37 (45.9%) from three against the Magic. The makes and percentage is his highest against any team.

This might come as a surprise to a fanboy like you but he does that every game.

Cj Watson such a vet.

I can only imagine if Mario or AG did that, how they're just so young and have so much to learn still.

Veteran foul.

No DJ tonight? I must have missed that.
