Trap month coming up. Let's come out hot this time -- hot!

Good thing Danny got lucky and Hayward horrifically broke his leg, giving these guys something to play for.

Tired of winning, can we spot teams 10 points?

They slaughtered the Bucks tonight with a 3 point assault; they were 19/38 from deep. We can't sleep on them out there like we did in Atlanta tonight, and let them shoot like that. Dig ourselves another early lead and we may not come back. Aside from that, we should crush them.

Fun Fact: With the win against the Hawks, the Celtics already matched the franchise-low for wins in a season (Tim Duncan Sweepstakes Season). A win against Dallas would put us on pace to win 73, the high mark for wins in league history (Warriors, 2015-16).

I guess what I'm trying to say is... keep winning, keep winning, and keep winning some more.

Maybe the whole team should pull a Larry and play this game with their off-hands.

The way things are going, every game is a trap game for these Celtics.

Hoping the Mavs just blew their collective load. I'd like to put together a string of efficient offensive games. Regardless of wins and losses, we know by now our defense is legit. Offense needs work, so hopefully we can get more ball movement and less line up with 0 offensive threats.

Unlike the gambler's falicy, in the nba that takes skill to shoot not random rolls, a team that shoots 35% from three will have games where the whole team shoots 50% from 3 and will probably win no matter who they play. Odds are they will shoot average or below the next few games. I feel good about them not lighting us up from 3 as well.

And on top of that, the bucks shoot 38% and shot 25% last night.
