The downside of having the best record with nothing to gain is playoff teams , playing against youhaving something to gain mentally playing you.
I'm going to this game and I really want to see a win. But I don't want the Knicks to gain anything and I would be fine with resting a couple of starters.

Keep em all out.

There is no reason to give anything away. Guys have earned a day off.

Since #1 got locked up, there has been no need to show any of our cards, keep the guys healthy, keep them sharp, and give burn to the bench to see what is there.

Give me loads of them to see what is up.

And them playing hard and competing drives up the fear of the Celtics, pushes up the benches confidence, and get the starters hype knowing other have their backs.

Priority number one besides getting out the game Healthy should be trying to get Hauser in strong rhythm again. And I mean more than just catch n shoots Some threes.. Run some off The ball action where he moves allah Duncan robinson. Have him pump fake when they run and close out too fast. I still believe he can't develop to do much more than just strictly catch and shoot.

And these are the perfect games to start working at that

Celtics players have four hours to think deeply about how much this season means to them. This is where we make our final stand! Do we keep sliding down the all-time SRS/net rating or do we claim our destiny of historical greatness?!

Nothing else matters, Cs. Nothing!

This is actually our 5th game vs Knicks because of the In-Season Tournament. Celtics won the previous 4.

But just the first matchup w/ OG in their lineup. It would be weird to have main rotation play and not compete. Hope we bring our A-game and treat it as a playoff game. I expect the Knicks to treat it as such and for Cs to reciprocate.

Some Knicks fans seemingly upset that Cs full squad (sans Brissett) is suddenly AVAILABLE for this game after being listed with injuries just a day ago. They expected an easy W to help them with their seeding.

Looks like Springer is stuck in Limbo.. too good for the gee league and not good enough to play with Boston..

No other meaningful seeding games tonight x Pelicans.

All of the meaningful seeding games will be squeezed in to Friday & Sunday, & LOTS OF POSSIBILITIES!

Our Top 8 are playing tonight.
Knicks are playing for seeding 2/3.

KICK THEIR **** ASSES….HARD!

AND I MEAN U TOO, 7 - play to your strengths, do not revert to being a bball moron as u do all too often, you were pure dog **** the other night.

I am trying to shake off the feeling that 7 and Bubbles will cost us the chip this year.
