Would like to add I really hope we continue to see the youth movement or more of it. Bigger minutes for Nesmith Romeo and PP.
Bigger is better you know

Revenge game for Richardson and Moses Brown.
Both players want to show that the team that traded him was wrong.
Interested to see what type of defensive game plan Udoka cooks up vs Doncic.
I like our chances if we can continue putting the clamps down on defense - we held Miami to under 80 points and they have way more offensive weapons than Dallas does.
This would be a big win to make it 3 wins in a row and get us to .500. 5-5 recored really wouldn't be that bad when you look at how topsy turvy the league has been so far this season.
Let's hope Jaylen is able to go, but if his hamstring isn't feeling good then no reason to risk further injury by playing him - especially this early in the season - plus after the Dallas game we have 3 days off before the next one. Here's the latest on JB:

Maybe Tatum can get his groove back against the traditionally weak defense of the Mavs. Then again, I believe his problem is too much basketball in his head. I would recommend him some rest.
I fully expect the C´s to win this one.

This is what was promised before the season. Development of our young players. Development requires playing time. Hello, Ime!

If there is even the slightest "tweek" or tightness on JB's hamstring, I hope they don't risk it.. while I would love a 3 game winning, it's not worth the risk, plus the extra rest for his knees.
That and any of Nesmith Romeo and/or J Rich?? can step in and be Ok.

Jaylen sits and Celtics win behind a Tatum 40 piece zesty. Never felt more sure about anything. I think tatums body language was different last night and he gonna settle into his yearly torrid stretch early this year.
We owe the Dallas doncics a beating and I’m feeling rather hyped.

Brown being out hopefully means more minutes for Romeo, Nesmith and Pritchard.

Lol. I just hope he focuses on stopping Luka and nothing more. I want to see Nesmith build something from last game. Really hope Ime plays him consistently together with romeo and PP. Don’t know what to expect from JT though. If he gets his shooting back, then probably less ball movement goes with that and more iso. Not sure getting his offense back is a good thing for now.

I have a bad feeling this game will bring about more lackluster effort from our green. Too often with this team I've seen "statement" wins only to be disappointed that they haven't really turned the corner, just played well for a game.
Prove me wrong, guys!
