Yeah that's the Celtics' weakness--team is really solid, has no major weak links, executes well, and can always runs their best stuff (unlike us), but Tatum and Brown aren't that good. The team is more about out-executing you than dominating you.

I love how much the Celtics fans are hating on Tatum. He's still a star, I just don't think he's the MVP candidate they thought he was. He and Brown are similar in that they should be the second star on a contender.

No rest for them either.


True, but they don't have a star with a knee sprain.

Celtics aren’t too intimidating IMO (most people seem to overate them)and they have a inexperienced coach who might be in over his head… I like our chances.

This is something overlooked by many a fan. I brought that point up with their fans after hearing their constant ridicule of Doc not being a winning coach. They might have the same team but the head fell off at the beginning of the season in blindsided fashion.

Ohhh.. some say its atleast on monday. Then its monday then, and it would be better. Less rest for them and not too much rest for us or else maybe Harden plays overweight in our next game :lol:

That was the ice coldest thing Trae Young has done since his immense wingspan and unmatchable defensive leaping ability ended the Ben Simmons Reign of Error for the Sixers through his pure and utter rim protecting intimidation.

I couldnt understand Quin’s decision to leave Trae on the floor with that second to the last defensive possession where they end up fouling Derrick White. Was it to lure the Celts to give the ball to White where they’d have Okongwu rotating to the rim?

Celts decision to completely leave the mid range makes them vulnerable down the stretch. If the 3s are not falling and when your opponent can defend the paint, what do you do?

Sixers got their mid range.
Hawks got their long 3s.

Should we win it all this year, Trae Young's jersey should be hung from the rafters
