Celts Remove Raptors' Innards, Stuff Them, Make Cuddly Dino Toys! VC vs TOR 4/7

Celtics now 2nd in offensive rating and 2nd in defensive rating. Hope our bench is up to the task of keeping those rankings on Sunday.

We're a different more dangerous team when Cs activate Rob on offense. It's quite sad that the Jays are poor lobthrowers.

Me too!

And agree.

I voted Cancún. Raptors seem to have forgotten they still have to lose a play in game to make it official.

I voted Hauser and White.

Good team win.

Raptors looked bad.

Nurse probably gone in the offseason and some of their guys will get traded too. Between FVV, OG, siakam, achiuwa, trent. At least 1, probably 2 (maybe 3) of them will probably be gone..

Tatum was kinda awesome in that first half, btw. Shouldn’t go unmentioned. Even if it’s already been mentioned.

Yup malcolm and white! Wish Joe have the guts to really play the right guys to finiah games, and not worry about hurting some guys ego(smart)

Slam Hauser.

How many firsts do the Raptors need to add to make a Siakam/Hauser swap work ?

FVV a true fan of the game -- will cheer for a flashy dime to a made 3, even if it's from the team that's curb-stomping them. :lol:

There certainly are some good Raptor posters, I know historically the boards got beef. (Bringing that back, explained to one of my kids what "beef" meant in context of the new Netflix show.) I like when posters from other boards respectfully engage.

Game itself? Raptors were disfunctional most of the game. But the tempo was great. Guys like Rob took some chances. Hauser got his groove on. Pritchard got to showcase and cook. Griffin got some on-court chemistry and some shots up. Overall good games for Tatum and White, but also somewhat uneven games from them in terms of taking care of the ball and, to some extent, their efforts where probably most greatly bolstered by the effort inconsistency from Toronto.

Maybe this beat down will force Masai to make some changes, but i doubt it. We should've tanked the season. They got lucky last year finishing 5th and the team had false hope, what a dud of a season.

good luck celts!

VC and CP winners:

Watch on YouTube

Will be interesting to see if Mazzulla won’t hesitate to use either (and Muscala) if Cs are struggling with their spacing/shooting in the playoffs. Conventional thinking points to Joe sticking with his top 8 guys but curious how our rookie coach manages his rotations.

Nice win.

Fun game to watch. Went with Hauser and Tatum for VC.

Pritchard had the best game of the season for him. Rob played well after a really bad game for him on Wednesday.

Hauser was great. I believe the 26 points was a career high. Also, I don't remember him having a dunk all season, he had 3 of them in the one!

The Raptors game thread is the most shamblesy of all shambleslands lol. Took me a while to scroll through it but it was well worth the effort. They hate Masai, they hate Nurse, they hate some guy named Bobby Webster and another guy named "Alvin." And they want to trade their entire roster for Payton Pritchard.

JDs speed and athleticism is going to be a game changer for us next season.

Book it.
