For those of us outside of Boston, it looks like this game has just been moved to NBATV instead of regular league pass. Makes sense to have this on natl tv but kinda sucks because now I'll be stuck with the Thunder broadcast.

OKC should trade for Cam Johnson today. They'll need him for more offense tomorrow.

“ankle sprain”… riiiiight.

“WE WANT BOSTON!”



Don’t let me down, Cs lol.

We know OKC is gonna bring it. We gotta match their intensity. Biggest regular season game of the year, statement game. Let em know they ain't there yet and we are still the class of the league.

I swear, the last time we were on NBA TV, I was able to watch the game on league pass instead. Worth a try tomorrow.

Well the usual I wonder who is playing and who is out and who might be playing injured etc..

JB is QUESTIONABLE. Watson, Davison, and Scheierman OUT.

OKC is coming in with a 14-win streak. They haven't lost to an Eastern conference team (Cup Finals doesn't count). Only two teams have had a 10-plus win streak this season. We ended the first one last November (Cavs, 15-win streak). Here's hoping for a repeat performance.

No Chet, Caruso, Topic, Dillon Jones, and Dieng for the Thunder. Branden Carlson is PROBABLE.

Drew Peterson is also OUT for Boston.

SGA | Wallace | Dort | JDub | IHart
Joe | Wiggins | Williams | JWill

White | Holiday | Tatum | Horford | Porzingis
Pritchard | Walsh | Hauser | Queta/Kornet

The streak ends at 14. It's time for clear skies and shamrocks growing under the Sun.

First thing that came to mind when I saw that pic of SGA with those sunglasses was Easy E Boyz n the Hood video

I am gonna assume it's because Maine has a game tomorrow at 1.

I hate these early games
We always have trouble starting these games with intensity. Like sleepwalking the first quarter
I hope I am wrong this time

Please play defense and keep the win streak alive

Sam Presti, 47, GM for 18 years:
• missed playoffs six times
• 1st round exit five times
• 2nd round exit two times
• WCF exit two times
• Lost Finals once

Brad Stevens, 48, GM for 4 years:
• missed playoffs ZERO times
• 1st round exit ZERO times
• 2nd round exit ZERO times
• ECF exit once
• Lost Finals once
• NBA Champion once

Stevens didn't even have two MVPs on his roster and a third future MVP that he traded away.

Why again prime time game is put as early game again?
Do they really hate ratings in NBA because today is the last NFL regular season gameday and they put it right in the middle of the NFL games

Per CleaningtheGlass:
OKC ranks #7 on offense and #1 on defense.
BOS ranks #2 on offense and #6 on defense.

Per inpredictable.com:
OKC ranks #1 on defense after made shot and #4 on defense after defensive rebound.
BOS ranks #1 on offense after made shot and #2 on offense after defensive rebound.

Per NBA.com:
OKC ranks #1 in opponent turnover rate. (forces a ton of turnovers)
BOS ranks #2 in turnover rate. (takes care of the ball really well)

OKC ranks #1 in opponent eFG%.
BOS ranks #3 in eFG%.

It's gonna be BOS offense vs. OKC defense. But I do hope we impose our defense the way we did vs. the #2 defense HOU.

Battle of Two MVP Candidates!
