Yabs vs Zizic coming up. Showdown of the stashed players.
Good game for Al to take some rest. Baynes is back and should handle Thompson physically. Strange that Williams is now heading to Maine. Or isn't he?
Start agressive and this should be an easy one. It's needed to climb up those standings.

Not sure when Williams is going up.
Maine Red Claws play the 24th and 26th at Home.

The Thursday, Jan 24th game will be on NBC Sports Boston, and ESPN+
The Saturday game will be on Facebook Live.

We play before they do. We'll see what happens.
Stevens should have TimeLord play here, then go up.

TT actually having a solid year, I had thought he'd mail it in. If he wasn't so damned expensive he'd be a nice get for somebody. He outta be a good buyout for somebody next year.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug...

In all seriousness (what? I was being serious!) this should be an easy win but is also a trap game ahead of a big showdown with the Warriors. Still, at home against this putrid collection of players that may be the least talented NBA roster I've ever seen...it should be an easy Celtics win. They can't let their guard down, though! Pacers fans around here were saying the same thing a few weeks ago
when they played the Cavs at home ahead of a tilt against Toronto and they gagged up and lost to the Cavs.
It's still 17 to 11!!!!

2nd game of 5-game home stand. Keep that home win streak going!

Image

Edit:
Kevin Love, JR Smith, Tristan Thompson, John Henson, David Nwaba, and Larry Nance, Jr. are all OUT for CLE. No Horford for BOS.

We've honestly been extremely lucky with injuries this season.

So far we've gotten one of Irving's healthy seasons too.

Just win. Hope we take this game seriously and not be over confident. This should be an easy win if we take care if business early. Letting this game be close could set us up for an upset. We need every game we can win to gain lost ground on the standings.
