Key matchup tonight: Horford vs. VucevicA. Sherrod Blakely | NBC Sports Boston | Oct 22, 2018, 5:11 PM
https://sports.yahoo.com/key-matchup-tonight-horford-vs-211119773.htmlVucevic, coming off a 27-point, 13-rebound, 12-assist performance in a Saturday night loss to Philadelphia, will lead the Magic into the TD Garden to take on Horford and the Celtics.
Like so many big men who came into the NBA as back-to-the-basket centers, Vucevic has had to expand his game to include the 3-point shot.
In his first six seasons, Vucevic only had 30 made 3's.
Last season, he more than doubled that total (64), and so far this season has been flawless on 3-point shooting while making each of his four attempts.
Horford hasn't been quite that efficient, but he has shown the propensity to connect from beyond the 3-point line as well.

Not the best week to maybe be without Baynes. Vucevic, Adams and Drummond.

Random convo w/ super casual NBA fan (prolly with little internet access)...
SCNBAF: So who won last night?
Me: Celtics, by two points.
SCNBAF: So who made the game-clinching free throws? Was it Rondo?
Me: Jumper by Tatum. Rondo's with the Lakers
now. He joined Lebron.
SCNBAF: No! Lebron's a Cavalier.
Me: Okaaaaayyy then.
(This is why I go on RealGM instead for bball hoops talk. And gifs. Mainly for the gifs.)

Preach, brother. I have exactly two friends in real life who are into Celtics basketball (none living in the city I currently live in), and one of them is still learning a lot about the game. This place is all I have, lol. I had a throwback English jersey on the other night and had to convince a friend that the Nuggets were still an NBA team. So many conversations like the one above too, lol.
Patriots killed the basketball star.

Eh, we're home. This should be an easy win. I can see Orlando's length posing a problem with Baynes out, but we just need to limit second chance opportunities and we're good. Hopefully Theis shakes some rust off.

Ugh. Adams is going to eat us alive on the offensive glass. Can't think of a worse big to go up against without Baynes. We really need Theis to get right.

He wasn't bad, the problem is that he doesn't have too much to offer, it's a waste give him those 5-10 minutes.
