Franchise record for most consecutive home wins to start a season is 18-0 (1957-58). This team is currently at 13-0.

Here are their next six opponents at home -- ORL, DET, TOR (B2B), UTA, MIN, HOU.

I don’t really care about 18-0 right now but going 14-0 is everything. I really hope the team plays the right way and makes a statement Sunday.

I guess I just care about more things than most. Even the trivial things lol. Yep, continuing to play the right way gives them a better chance at staying undefeated at home. It would be cool to set a new franchise record but Banner 18 remains the top priority.

Holiday and White are currently tied for 2nd most blocks (19) by a guard. Only player who has more is Peyton Watson of the Nuggets. White is slightly ahead of Holiday in blocks per game for a guard by having played one less game than Jrue.

This was from earlier in the season:



Tight race so far.

Beat them even worse.
**** these upstarts.

Time to insert my obligatory, Why is this game starting in the middle of the afternoon on Sunday? I believe i've missed only one game in five years and tomorrow might be the second..

Back to regular 8-man rotation w/ (hopefully) some sprinkling of Stevens/Queta for energy/hustle.

Keep that home streak alive!

For the Magic, Carter Jr. is OUT, Fultz is DOUBTFUL, Ingles and Suggs are QUESTIONABLE.

gonna be there!
might bring pants

Tatum is 18/81 (22.2%) on pullup 3s at the TD Garden this season. Shooters gonna shoot so expect at least 5 more of these tonight! (I wish he didn't.)

Hopefully they find the right matinee energy this time around. Kill'em again.

Eventually teams will stop trying to defend it but I guess until then the threat of that move probably still creates space. I still wish he didn’t go to that shot when team needs a bucket.

3 or 4 seasons ago, he was shooting these at a decent clip. I don't know if it's the added muscle or if he changed his mechanics, but it hasn't been the same. He obviously still believes in the shot or he'd take less of them. He has other moves in the bag and he seemingly can get to the rim now at will with a screen. He's also been unstoppable in the post. So it's frustrating to see him settling for the iso pullup three which sometimes stops offensive momentum.

I'm with you. Focus on some of the little things, along the way. -- Always keeping in mind, the Big Prize.
This year's Celtics Team is really in a great position to contend. -- Time for Banner 18.

Have a beautiful game, like the previous beautiful game and all will be beautiful...

Thank You, Very Much.
I appreciate that.

You're pretty kool, yourself.

Jaylen Brown has been excellent as of late. Very controlled and efficient. Much better effort on the defensive end as well.
