what witchcraft is this that I find myself thinking "well at least IF they lose to the Clippers, then at least we KNOW they'll beat the Lakers"??

I'd like to put in a request for back-to-back curb stompings, please!

This ^ alone is quite a remarkable feat. Such consistency with their inconsistency.

If they finish the regular season with the trend they'll be 49 and 33, win the first round 4-3 but lose in the second round 3-4. :D

How healthy are the Clippers? That's a big determining factor these days when the Celts are playing.

INJURY REPORT:

CELTICS: Maine Sons are OUT. Horford and Holiday are QUESTIONABLE.
CLIPPERS: Kawhi, Tucker, and Zubac are OUT. Powell, Harden, Batum, and Dunn are QUESTIONABLE.

I'd rather see Horford play in this one and KP sitting out, and a reversal of playing time against LAL in the back to back.

Sit both vs LAC and play both against LAL
No Zubac should help

I actually think Zubac is one of the most underrated players in the NBA. Big loss.

I think Clippers will be resting a few of those questionables. Wouldn’t be shocked if both Powell and Harden don’t play
