I can't stand another lackluster defensive showing
Please play defense

Let's start a win streak

If we play poorly here and lose another game (5 in 7), then it's definitely rock bottom in Mazzulla era and it's gonna be all looking up from there. Unless we have the tools to dig deeper through the rock.

FUN STAT: 24 of the 52 losses (46.15%) in the Mazzulla era have come after Thanksgiving until end of January.

Happy Holidays, Celtics fans!

Guaranteed loss coming up. Then we can finally trade Tatum and start the PP era.

Until proven otherwise: Anyones game.

Should be 2024-25 Celtics slogan. Different Here got stale.

Boston Celtics, it's Anyone's Game!

Porziņģis and Holiday are once again QUESTIONABLE for this game.

I almost missed it, but it is a 3pm start.

Watson, Davison, and Schei are OUT. Peterson is AVAILABLE.

Dick, Mitchell, and Fernando are QUESTIONABLE; Quickley and Barrett are OUT for the Raps.

Win or lose, Cs already assured of worst win percentage for a single month in the Mazzulla era. Either a tie with December 2022 (8-6) or new low (7-7) with a loss.

Is this the game where the Celtics attempt 60 3-pointers?

10 hours to go until the biggest game of 2024 yet! Not much good has come out of this year for the team but it can still be salvaged with a win vs. the hottest team in the league!

10 straight losses for the Raptors. 9 of which they gave up at least 113 pts, 5 games of at least 125 pts. And the last 3 games -- 139! 155! 136!

Interesting that Cs started losing more when they eased up on their 3-ball attempt rate.



NARRATOR: The defense is still the main issue though.

finish the year with a W and come back on a mission to repeat in 2025.... This live and die by the three, whine to the refs and not get back on D isn't going to cut it. Wouldn't be surprised to see a slight move made to wake this group up! Happy New Years C's fans! Bring on 2025

Hmm wonder what data exists to see if that is something being forced by opposing defenses or no.

Ie, is it offensive execution or are teams defending their preferred shots better in that stretch I wonder.

Expect JT to let it fly from 3.

I have to go do some worky-type stuff and will probably miss the beginning of the game. So uhh...

Happy New Year's Eve and enjoy the big game everyone!

Go C's let's get this win!! (For real this time)

There is NO WAY on Kyrie's flat earth Boston should lose this game.

Considering the way the Celtics have been zombieing their way through the season...
