Should've signed Dwight when we had the chance.

That would Suck, if all 3 of them were OUT. Queta gotta step up, either way. Don't get so many Fouls.



I'd rather sit them all tonight and play everyone we can tomorrow vs Indy. I don't want to rush KP back.

Pelicans one of those teams that can throw several lengthy wings at JT/JB and our ballhandlers. Clippers switching gave us problems last game. Anxious to see how our offense does today.

Porzingis, Horford and Kornet were all out December 15th vs Orlando. Lamar Stevens started at center and played 14 minutes. Queta fouled out in 18 minutes. Boston won by 17 points.

Ok. At least we got Al.
Queta is gonna have to step it up, minus the Fouls.

If Queta has any hope of convincing Brad Stevens to make him part of the 15 man playoff roster this year then this is his moment to make a statement. No exaggeration.

We're too small. Use their size against them. Run when you can.

Tip-Off Fun Fact: Neemias Queta has the best win percentage among Celtics players who's played at least 5 games.

I like us pushing against the bigger teams.

So I guess we're still missing FTs.

Tatum loves to trot. JB was already under the basket for an easy two.

Having Jaylen guard CJ is setting up the mismatch on the other end.
