Read on Twitter

We might see some of the Brown/Tatum backcourt.

Jesus, Larkin too? Fans attending the game better get ready because they may have to suit up.

Man, Larkin's timing with being out is horrible. He's been healthy DNP-CD'ed a bunch, and on the other side missed a bunch of games when we actually need him. All of Smart's first time out due to framegate. Then a minutes restrictions with Kyrie/Marcus initially out, now out tonight for an illness?

I didn't care about him when we signed him. He won me over, reluctantly. Now I'm mad at him for NOT playing.

Unleash Al Pointford!

No Larkin, no Smart and no Irving.

Rozier to play 48 minutes? Who is the backup point guard? Should be interesting!

Let’s Go Celtics!!!!!

Losing Larkin after his best all-around game as a Celtic is still another indicator of how this season has gone since Day One. So who steps up and carries us to victory tonight? That I fully expect someone to do so is also an indicator of how this season has gone: weird and wonderful.

Probably just a rest game vs a weak opponent.

Larkin being out is huge. Rozier is the only one close to resembling a PG tonight.

I don't get the reports for this Forum, since I'm not a Mod here anymore. But I can still temp suspend people. I'm just temp suspending any account with 1 or 2 posts that trolls the forum.

In other words: Grow the **** up you stupid idiots.

I'm looking forward to the rapidfire warnings.

Not to sure really. We are supposedly Salty because of them? It’s all part of their inferiority complex. This is likely the greatest team in their history , so the crazy is amplified times 100. If they don’t make it to the ECF , their board will be in complete meltdown.

Xavier Silas will probably go for 18 points and 5 assists tonight. Stevens COY

In an emergency, they can play a Brown/Tatum backcourt and run the offense through Horford or Monroe. Brown/Tatum at guard creates unknowns for both teams.

None of this favors depleted Boston... unless it miraculously does.

Tough spot for the Raps in this one. If they lose, they are an utter embarrassment dropping a contest against a team missing most its 15 man roster and if they win they are an overrated joke of a franchise who needs the opponents entire starting cast and bench on the sidelines to sneak a cheap victory. Either way it's really pathetic of them and they ought to be ashamed of themselves.

If we beat them tonight, the level of embarrassment is even worse then you suggest. Never mind the fact we are down Kyrie, Hayward, Smart, Larkin, Theis, and the fact that both Horford and Morris are playing with ankle injuries, but the raptors haven’t played since Tuesday. They’ve had 4 days to rest and game plan for a Celtics team that’s being led by Brown and Tatum.

Talk about EPIC fail if they lose.

I don't even think it will take an emergency. I think Stevens will just throw it out there with Horford running the offense. Especially when Van Vleet is on the court.

All right, let's see what we got. IMO the Raps are a clear step above all of OKC/POR/UTA. This will not be easy.

But, nothing about this season has been, and we're still here.

Homie of mine had a relative pass away nearby and is randomly in town. I'll probably only watch half of this. Cs up.
