Yet another rest advantage game for the Celtics. They're at home chilling while the Clippers play in Toronto tonight and travel to Boston for tomorrow's matchup. They're 20-4 since beginning of December and are 25-7 since signing Daniel Theis, best record in those spans (Celtics 2nd). Essentially the two winningest teams in the last two months.

It would be great to have Porzingis playing, but understandable if he rested that ankle/foot.

Clippers were without Kawhi when we pummeled them in LA pre-Xmas.

Disgusting that I will boarding a flight to NY the second this game tips offs. I have not missed a game in years. Some I have watched on tape delay. Wi-Fi will not be strong enough On a plane. This is what I get for scheduling a flight without looking at the Boston schedule :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Don't lose hope maybe your flight gets delayed three hours.

Zubac the only rotation guy listed OUT for them vs. the Raptors. They don't rest guys on B2B anymore. They're 3-3 so far in 2nd night of B2Bs, all losses coming on the road*, all wins at home.

*one loss was to the Lakers, so they're still at home while technically being a road game.

Light work for Clippers on 1st night of B2B. Harden and Kawhi with only 31 mins. No one else over 25 mins. Nine-man rotation for Lue.

Very excited for this game, Clippers make you play ugly. Well when they have both Kawhi and PG out there.

Harden has been brilliant for them since they figured it out.

Probably the only team out West I feel could possibly see beat Denver(wouldn’t bet on it though.). Should be a good matchup.

The last time a fan wanted to delay a flight to watch a game, she became an internet meme. Try at your own risk.

Walsh and Porzingis both OUT for the Celtics.
Zubac (and dunno who else) OUT for the Clips.

Go start another home win streak!

Paul George is listed as QUESTIONABLE.

Trying to avoid this from happening again.
