The Celtics are 17-2 this season coming off losses and their average point differential in those wins is 20.12 points. I expect a blowout win esp with Horford, Porzingis, and Holiday rested. I'd rest JB as he hasn't been moving well. The starters will just have to figure it out on the fly in the first round.

The Celtics should just play OKC the rest of the season and see how many games they can win...

Here's a fun random one...

Both Derrick White (97) and Payton Pritchard (90) have more wide-open three-point makes than the entire Jazz team (89) in won games.

Suns without KD and their two-ways. Davison and Norris are OUT for the Cs. Peterson, Walsh, and JB are QUESTIONABLE.

If JB plays tonight, he's just selfish. There is literally not a single reason to suit up besides trying to make All-NBA.

So I am guessing that the world we live in Brad or Joe can not make him sit?

Do you think he really believes that he would make an all nba team?? The docs must know that any amount of rest can't help his knee in time for the playoffs otherwise he would be resting all these games.

it's nuts for JB to play in these last meaningless games if he's trying to heal up for the playoffs.
making 3rd team NBA or whatever is meaningless relative to winner another ring

It could be his knee is feeling better and they want him in rhythm and in game shape for the playoffs.

I read that short rests won’t do JB’s injury any good and that he’d need an offseason-long type of recovery so I guess it is what it is. He’s trying to find a way to play with the injury. Let’s just hope his body doesn’t overcompensate and some other injury pops up.
