Latest Injury Report:

Pistons: Klintman and their two-ways are OUT.
Celtics: Scheierman and two-ways are OUT. Hauser is DOUBTFUL. Springer, Walsh, and Tatum are QUESTIONABLE.

Where's James Young and RJ Hunter when you need them?

Give the cup time. I think eventually they may add international teams.

Gotta win these two cup cakes to make up for missing the tourney.

Probably best to sit anyone questionable and give Walsh some heavy burn. Wing depth is really being tested with all these injuries early. Walsh isn’t quite ready yet, Scheierman and Springer are awful. They should’ve kept Lonnie Walker so they’d have another able body to use. That way they can be more cautious when it comes to resting guys like Sam, Tatum, Jrue, White and JB

This would be a good game to get Tatum to sit. It would get him a full 8 days of rest between Memphis on the 7th and Washington on the 15th. Celtics typically handle Detroit.

Bobby Manning: Drew Peterson and Baylor Scheierman aren't with the #Celtics tonight. Update: I just saw a clip of Peterson and Davison warming up before the game.


Me: Walsh and double bigs it is.

If Hauser's OUT, then Peterson should come up. Maine doesn't play until Sunday, the 15th.
Scheierman too, for that matter. Those two should be going back and forth.

Patellar tendinopathy can easily become a pretty annoying nagging injury if you don't rest it and let it improve. Like I said earlier getting Tatum a full eight days between games makes a lot of sense. It'll be interesting to see if he plays Saturday vs Washington. If he sits out that game you'll get him a full 12 days off while only missing two games.

Didn't see it get mentioned but JD Davision and Drew Peterson were upgraded to QUESTIONABLE from being OUT in earlier injury reports. Makes sense since more of the main guys were downgraded to OUT.

White | Holiday | Brown | Horford | Porzingis
Pritchard | Walsh | Peterson | Queta/Kornet

Cs still have enough to win. No stinkers from the main guys please. This team has to defend on nights where they can't shoot a lick.

Last night the longest active losing streak (15 games) against a single team ended when the Rockets beat the Warriors via two late FTs.

Tonight, the 3rd longest active winning streak (11 games) against a single team is in peril!
