So far 1-0 in games missed. Let’s remain undefeated in that aspect.

I wake up to watch the 3:30am game
No sweat

Just hit a billion shots and be done with this nonsense.

Somehow expecting a convincing win, if not a blowout.

Seriously, Celtics finish the Magic tonight and wait for the NY/Det series to end.

so are they just being extra super duper careful with jrue and he'd be able to play if we absolutely needed him? i'm sure we can win tonight without him, that's a given. close it out. but is this going to be a major concern throughout the playoffs? what grade is his hamstring issue?

JB available to play, per my sources.

Per Bobby Manning:
"Mosley: "(Jrue Holiday) blows up all the things you want to do offensively ... Payton Pritchard has stepped into that role."

Said he's been impressed by Pritchard's defense."

Yep, great call by Joe unleashing PP as a fullcourt pest. He's done a great job navigating screens so he doesn't have to defend in the paint or in the post as much. Wagner and Banchero facing up on him hasn't had much success unless they already have momentum with their drive.

Finish these dirty players and coach off tonight, please.

Holiday with a hamstring issue is worrying. That's probably a 6 to 8 week injury if he doesn't aggravate it.

8:50 tipoff, per Sean Grande.

Apart from the 1-8 matchups, the first round has been mostly entertaining and the games have been close.

JB will never learn when it comes to going 1-on-5 lol. He just thinks he can score against anyone.
