What is wrong with me, that I look at our lineup for tonight, and stress because we ONLY have JT, JB and Jrue to lead us? I'm like a spoiled kid in a candy store. Or lolly shop, as we'd say here...lol

So this is the 41st game of the Celtics. Win or lose, they're already assured of the best record in the NBA 41 games into the season. Of the previous 89 teams that had/were tied for the best record through 41 games, 35 went on to win the title. Last teams to do it were the 2019 Raptors and the three Warriors title teams before them.

Best Celtics Teams (W-L Record, Point Differential, Season Finish) after 41 Games:

‭• 1984-85: 34-7, +328, Lost Finals‭
‭• 1972-73: 34-7, +426, Lost ECF‭
• 1964-65: 34-7, +424, Title
• 2007-08: 34-7, +452, Title
‭• 1961-62: 33-8, +407, Title
‭• 1985-86: 33-8, +318, Title
‭• 1959-60: 32-9, +289, Title
‭• 1963-64: 32-9, +406, Title
‭• 1973-74: 32-9, +260, Title‭
‭• 1980-81: 32-9, +308, Title
• 1983-84: 32-9, +283, Title
‭• 2008-09: 32-9, +368, Lost ECF
‭• 2010-11: 32-9, +301, Lost ECF

Celtics are currently at 31-9 with a point differential of +391.

Let’s top that 452!!!

Gotta rest their shoulders and backs from all the carrying of the team they've had to do for half a season.

No Giannis for the Bucks against Cleveland tonight. Celtics take care of business, chance to pick up another game in standings. Should be a fun game.

Why didn't Brad draft this Wembanyama guy?

ConstableGeneva · Post #30 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Thu Jan 18, 2024 12:48 am

Not a lot of passing. Not a lot of defense.

The Spurs are literally a G League team.

Brown has taken 2 bad shots already, when he could have passed out of them.

Kornet's hands suck. He's let 2 Rebounds go that he had his hands on.

Milwaukee down 20-2 rn.

Has JB passed the ball once when he touched paint?

I don't like the offense by JB so far.
