I mean its ust a game on a tuesday night in November. It might was well be against the wizards

D Wades superman night ended the C's 11 game win streak last year. I'd love to watch them spoil their parade tonight.

Prediction: Hard to say who wins that game, but I think the Rockets are gonna go on and win the title.

I said a post christmas return at home against Indy would be good, but if he returned at home against Philly on Christmas the garden would be bananas.

It would be epic if the Celtics end the Cavs win streak and string together 70 straight victories of their own.

I hope Double P plays

Cavs fans seem a bit worried they'll be short on wings tonight. Wade is out and Okoro, LeVert and Merrill are all questionable. That dude Ty Jerome has been playing awesome for them so gotta watch out for him tonight.

I have a sneaky feeling the C's open up on a run and don't look back.

We are due. It's been more than two weeks (@CHA) since we've had a really strong 1st Q. We had double digit leads in the 1st against the Warriors and Raptors but lost them right away.

Evan Mobley on what he wants people to take away from tonight's Cavs-Celtics game:

"That we're a real contender. It's not a fluke or anything, we're not a fluke. We're coming out here to get wins and get better every day. ... The end goal is that we're true contenders."

via Tim Bontemps

Why aim low?? End goal should be to win it all.

Jays should hunt Garland and get him into foul trouble. Donovan Mitchell will probably score a truckload of points. Let's make sure that he doesn't get help from anywhere else. If he can beat us single-handedly, so be it.

game of the year so far, going to need to crash the boards tonight! If the three ball is falling and we hustle on D, C's send a message to the East, still goes through Beantown! LFG

Will the Curse of Lucky strike the Celtics down once again?

According to sources, Lucky hasn't been the same since being replaced for Cup games and he's pissed off.

"You can see the green flames coming out of his one open eye," sources say.

Mess with Lucky and there's trouble... Big Trouble in Little China!

It may mean less for Boston, but I want to kill any "hope" the Cavs have and plant a seed that says you are just not good enough..

They say family first. But does that extend to a nephew?? He has his first HS game of the season and his first start ever in HS (Soph) he really wants me to be there. Problem is... I have an addiction.. To watching Boston and double it for Big games (yeah it's November)

Don't worry.. I'll do the right thing..

I'll remember to ask him how he did??

kidding.... I think

Also it's a cup game as well, a loss here and the C's are most likely out. This is not just another game. I'm sure the C's want this one tonight!

Porzingis is Latvian for Middleton. If we lose (we won't), of course this game doesn't count!
