This game really matters. Keep distance between us, but just as important, make it clear that we are capable of beating this team.

Let's hope the game isn't marred like it was in the third quarter last game when the entire venue was just turned into Chinese Communist Party propaganda.

Very sad to see, and very likely was very hurtful to many.




The tall and stupid team versus the short Celtics.

Last game, Romeo looked really tall when he was there standing in the bench area.

Then realized he was just surrounded by Celtics, and his hair probably added a bit too.

The team is short.

The Romeo 3 was a bad idea. The Romeo drive was very good.



This has to be a Tacko Plays Real Minutes game?



Albert Pujols will drag himself onto the court, rested his knee last game for them. What $100million buys you these days.


The trick to beating the 76ers is to have a point guard with 18 assists?



Miami plays Orlando, will they get there via Louisiana?

Pretty excited to see how the Celtics do when they aren't on the second night of a B2B against this team.

Great gif analogy. They're big in form but lack substance. They will also cry as the going gets tough. And they will remain irrelevant for years to come.

Based solely on her avi, I assumed K43 didn't really need one particular finger for typing.

Do the Sixers really have our number last 2 games or did the schedule makers have our number? I think the latter given how easily we dispatched Miami on their home court even missing Tatum just because they were on back to back and we weren’t. Opening night on their home court we competed but lost it at end.....does that really mean anything?

If tonight’s game follows the same script as previous 3 then Danny really has to do something. I don’t think we should assume it could. As far as I’m concerned, this is the first fair rematch of opening night and is a true litmus test for Celtics (less so for Sixers).
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Which would be all the more concerning if Kemba sits because of this knee issue.

If we get dominated in this game, Danny makes a trade. If we win, Danny stands pat. IMO

I REALLY hope we get to see a few meaningful mins from Tacko tonight. See how he looks in a 5min stretch v Embiid. Why hell not?? I remember how shocked I was seeing how well Yao stayed with Shaq in their first meeting. I just assumed Shaq would plow right over and through Yao but he had all kinds of trouble with Yao's length and toughness.

I say throw him out there for 5mins and see what happens ....could be gross, could be a bit of a revelation! Tacko's ready for a real taste esp with rabid home fans backing him 8-)

That's me when people talk about trading Smart.
