This game just got harder because of the extra energy they had to use on beating the Clips.

Hell NO it didn't.
We were down 3 of our Top 6.

We need to Steamroll them.

This thread is definitely missing Pat Bev showing the camera to the refs as part of the historic Celtics/Lakers rivalry. That being said beat the team with TWELVE titles hailing from the place not known for lakes at all.

We can finally rattle off a string of wins. Guys must be breathing a sigh of relief since Springer sprung.

Hood, Vanderbilt, and Hood-Schifino are OUT. Lebron and AD are PROBABLE.

No posting yet from Cs.

I hope TNT has enough time to update their graphics and promos to reflect that it's now Jaden Springer and the Boston Celtics taking on LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. I hope Jaden gets enough from his supporting cast tonight!

To keep with the celtics tradition of letting randos go off on them my prediction is that Bronny drops 20. You heard it here first.

Uhh this game is starting an hour later now, and it's on TNT before our game. So it seems like it's going to impact the start time of our game but they haven't said anything. I'll be watching TNT tonight so hopefully they don't preempt the first hour of Celtics-Lakers so we can watch the end of Bucks-Heat.

Probably the hardest game of the road trip factoring in schedule and opponent health. Second night of a B2B coming off an overtime game against a mostly healthy team. Celtics will need to hit their shots.

No one else in the world seems as confused about this as I am but how is our game on TNT at 10pm if the first game starts at 8:30 and still has an hour left when ours is supposed to start?

Lakers form has not been flash lately (only beaten thr lowly Wizards at Staples in the last week) but they always rise against us.

They been one of the worst perimeter/3 point shooting teams should also help us.

What I'm hearing: no timeouts and no halftime break in the Heat/Bucks game. Will update.

That's why we should never take that guy for granted.

For comparison, Paul Pierce was NEVER voted an All-Star starter his whole career.
