Keep on trucking guys. We saved all our 3's for tmw i guess. Then we rest, and come back swinging. Going for 60.

It's weird, the schedule slows down just slightly and our D is elite again.

Smart and Rozier are starting to remind me of K.C. and Sam.

Max the first two. Trade the latter two for 2nd rounders.

Not as satisfying as the Cleveland win but I will take it. Smart should get the VC tonight.

If Marcus and Terry both have good offensive games in the same night the Celtics will never lose unless everyone else plays really bad.

Talk about adversity. Hayward injury, schedule we still at the top of the East, 2nd in the league?

D needs more effort. It also affects our offensive efficiency . I think it makes sense.
