Celts and Bucks are the only teams not playing today. Kinda want the C's to go to Milwaukee and beat them just for fun haha.

S/O DWhite and PP!! The Ty Jerome thing is a fluke, right? Annoying me at this point. Huge part of why they've had early season success.

Cavs destroying the hawks early. A team we got an L.
The east this year just seems awful idk. I think the cavs will keep this up because the east just seems so weak this year.

Hawks love to attack the paint.

Celts gave up too many points in the paint against the Hawks.

Not a big deal because Cs interior D is better with KP playing.

Cavs tied with the Hawks to start 2nd Q. They're no longer juggernauts.

A healthy Magic squad is still the biggest "threat" to the Celtics in the East. Teams that have multiple physical, lengthy, switchy wings/bigs to throw at the Jays and are quick enough to defend both perimeter and paint.

Problem with the Magic is their shooting is really not that good.

Boston is obviously very deep, especially when healthy. But watching Yabusele play makes me think he would have been a good Celtic for us. Shooting 47 + 41 from 3 all while giving some good energy all-around. Happy his gamble seems to be paying off.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Funny how an Atlanta win is bad for our NBA Cup aspirations, yet I would honestly prefer another Cavs loss and get closer on the East standings.

I don't think this is an NBA Cup game. No special court. It's only on Tuesdays and Fridays.

My mistake. Hopefully the Hawks can hold on for the win ! What a feisty pain in the butt team they are !

Their next game will be in Atlanta and that will be a Cup game.

Looks like Cavs couldn't defend "The Land".

Cavs are now just 1.5 games up. Hopefully Hawks also take the 2nd game vs. them in the home-and-home. Don't care much about the Cup.
