This is so indicative of the fallacy that the Celtics are really balanced. Plummeting in every single category after losing only 1 player, and it isn't even someone on the caliber of Lebron or Durant or Curry.

Stevens basically ruled out Jae for the Warriors game. He's a gametime decision for tonight. Looked good in practice yesterday.

Limit Lillard and McCollum ...and we got this one!

Ugh. As someone with glass ankles, sprains make me very nervous; I don't want him coming back until he's absolutely 100% pain free.

But, I have to remember that he won the athletic genetic lottery way more than me. His ankles probably don't snap if he steps the wrong way, like mine do.

Just, take it nice and easy Jae. Make it a good warmup.

Win or lose, I hope it's a blowout either way..

Want us to be ready for GSW tomorrow and not exhausted. I want to beat those **** and not let them go 41-0 at home and break our record from 86. I can live with them and the Spurs tying our record at 40-1 but not break it.

I don't care if they beat the Bulls 72-10 record, but our record is on the line tomorrow.

We have to win this game. That would take us to the LA game with a chance to come out of the West trip with a winning record. Huge game right here..if we win this game and the LA game I fully expect us to finish with the 3rd seed.

Praying for a blowout. This is until 6am here otherwise.... A tight loss would just be torture :lol:

My bad. He COULD still play in the Warriors game but unlikely considering it's a back-to-back. If he can only play one of the two, Crowder's playing tonight.

Cast got wet through trash bag in shower, options were go to hospital now to get it resplinted (and miss the game), or wait til the morning and be able to watch the game. This is wet and uncomfortable, make it worth while Celtics!

I hope at the very least tonight Smart can focus on his D on Lillard, try to wear him down or frustrate him.

If Crowder can only go 1 of 2, I'd rather have him tonight. As much as I hate to say it, this is the far more winnable game.
