This is ridiculous. Swelling should make a player automatically out even if they get the so called swelling down. If this was playoffs, it would be different.

Maine Sons are also OUT.

Jaquez is QUESTIONABLE, Dru Smith is OUT, and Jovic is PROBABLE for Miami.

Would we really be surprised if the Celtics came up with another dud and dropped this?

No
But No JT, JB, Jrue will mean that the stay ready crew will play
At least we will see some hustle or a 3 bigs lineup or something

Knowing the Jays, they're going for All-Star MVP, especially JB.

Maybe that's why JB is resting the knee. :lol:

JT was AS MVP in 2023 so I doubt it
Maybe JB will go for it

I just hope they will take it easy and rest

Jimmy Butler caused all that drama to avoid this game.

Meanwhile Jordan Walsh has more NBA championships in one season with the Celtics than Jimmy Butler with his five full seasons in Miami.

I think you're thinking of the Pre-Torrey-Craig Boston Celtics. Easy mistake to make. But let me assure you that the Boston Celtics, with Torrey Craig on their roster, have never lost.

Spoiler:
Also the Miami Heat suuuuuuuuuuuucccckkk but FFS they're going to get a trade bounce Wiggins game, aren't they

Losing to Lebron or LAL still a BIG number I hate, But Miami has 2nd place all locked up. Living in the Area of "Heat Culture" can be so annoying.

I would really like to see JT's minutes start to go down a bit. Maybe even take this game off altogether. Win or lose, lets get the bench guys some minutes. Hauser needs to find a good rhythm.

Just remember, they have to say “a” reason for the medical report, so take the reason they are saying these players are questionable/out with a grain of salt.
