Tuesday? Woah, 3 days off, after we had 3 days off before last night's game.

Well, it's good for the team to rest up. And to use that practice time to keep working on stuff, get better, look at film and see what can be improved upon.

Hopefully Lamar gives all the secrets on how to beat Cleveland, like Marcus gave all of our secrets to Memphis..

Celtics, when shooting at least 33% from 3: 14-0 (100%)
Rest of NBA, when shooting 33%+ from 3: 243-143 (62.95%)

All teams have lost at least once shooting 33%+ from 3, except the Celtics.

I love that we are home.. But our opponents will give us a good test on the backboard.. If we lose yet again to orlando this coach must be fired immediately..

I think that would make him near windless against this team..

What rest of December looks like... Cavs and Magic won season series against us last season. West trips are always tough. Then three trap games before the New Year.

Don't mind the dates. I'm from the future.

Probably going 3-2 over the next 5. I want 4-1 though.

Those dates and times look a few hours behind the times to me….

Clearly the wrong times, these are correct ones:

The Celtics are undefeated (15-0) when they've had an offensive rating of at least 111.0. That number would currently rank 25th among all teams. They're also undefeated (15-0) when they've shot better than 56.0% TS%. That number would currently rank 23rd among all teams.

It hasn't taken much from an offensive standpoint for this team to win. Maybe we're doing it with our defense?

Must not be EST because anything that says am for me is wrong! No sir, no ma’am, no ham, no turkey! The devil is a lie! If I’m not being paid, I’m not doing am games, that’s the hours for a check or sleep! 11:30 is even pushing it. I really don’t know why I’ve been paid by people, because my brain is barely started by 8am! :lol:

End of rant…

From 12/13 to 1/1, the Celtics should win all 11 of the games. They are the much better team compared to any of these clubs.

But, you know Joe Le Taxi.....

The rest should really help these guys.

Read on Twitter

Depth guards Ty Jerome and Ricky Rubio have also been OUT for an extended period. Might not matter 'cos Strus gonna hit 8 threes and score 30+ points.

Play Lamar Stevens. Let's have a revenge game in our favor for once.
