Right now I'm just hoping for healthy players.

It's just unrealistic to expect this Celtics team to dominate, they way they do, when 2 starters are not playing.


You still wanna get the top seed or at least top 2 seed in the east.

Not at the expense of getting up or suffering nagging injuries.

Cs can win on the road.

The seeding is not as important compared to last season.

Guarding Ben Simmons 35 feet from the basket is pointless

We won so many games some in blowout fashion cos we were good and we almost always was the harder playing team. The latter part hasn’t been the case so far this season.

Come on man. They should be beating this Brooklyn squad even without JB. They’re just lazy and flat

I'm listening to Scal and the Celtics broadcast.

Scal said these Nets are athletic and fast.

Cs struggle with teams like this.

This team is different from last year's Nets.

Cs just not focused enough and just slow to every ball. Hard to win this way.

Damn we are having trouble if JT goes out. Would have been different if Jb and Zinger were here.

I disagree with you. They need at least a top 2 seed.

Walsh you suck. Hauser has been disappointing so far this season. Can’t make open shots
