Gotta say that I'm actually surprised to see both Horford and Porzingis Starting, on a Back-to-Back.

Celtics Injury Report vs. Cleveland tomorrow:

Jrue Holiday - Right Adductor Tightness - QUESTIONABLE
Al Horford - Left Big Toe Sprain - QUESTIONABLE
Kristaps Porzingis - Left PTT Return From Injury Management - QUESTIONABLE
Derrick White - Right Foot Sprain - QUESTIONABLE


I guess not on splitting the back to backs. Special circumstances.

Miami will get Kornet, Tillman and Queta tomorrow most likely.

Here's my bold prediction for tonight: We'll be hitting them with an unprecedented 3-point barrage.

I may be wrong about this though.

Horford and Porzingis must have started together sometime, but I can't remember it.

- Cavs are at -1.5, so only slightly favored for the game.

- Need Big Games from Porzingis, Horford and the Season of the Pritch.

- After the Patriots disaster, a Celtics win would be nice, but Maye will eventually edge Tatum out as the Best Athlete
in Boston.

- And time for Hauser to finally show up, so far a mediocre to bad season for him.

- Always wanted Celtics killer LaVert in Boston.

- Will both Porzingis and Horford skip tomorrow''s game?

When we win it is gonna be GOOD.

If we don't - no White & Jaylen, so it won't count, right?

Because he is a deer in a headlight while playing with the big kids
Athletic but poor BBIQ and can't defend

Springer can defend but do nothing else good. Combine both and you can have a decent 10th option on the bench

Peterson and Scheierman can handle JD's minutes better


Not disagreeing with anything above. But my point remains. Why have a PG that can't even play when we are down 2 PGs?? If he is that bad just cut him already.,
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I don’t see three losses in a row for Cleveland, and not without White and JB. Would love a W though

- Getting off to a bad start.
- Horford is useless once more.
- The Curse of Maxwell is striking.

What a crappy start to this game. Can they try hitting 2 point shots?

I want to go on record as officially saying I hate 5 outs.No one ever goes inside the three point line and just everyone watches one guy..stupid basketball. That's what old white people do when they play.. Can you imagine five people standing outside and just chucking up shots with no one to rebound as good basketball??
