State of the Celtics since Smart moved into the starting lineup:

Pro-tip: The best way to keep that momentum going is to not lose ever.

Trap game.

Can we talk about good Morris has been this year? What a freaking season. When we were struggling, he kept us afloat.

He's been our best scorer by TS% for a long time now. (although Theis is close to him among players that get minutes, but I think we know the difference in burden of offense these players have gotten)

I also feel like, Brown said he plays better with Rozier because he wants to play fast. And Horford as well as Baynes are good... but both are cerebral players using position to make up for speed.

There's something to be said with letting our young guys play like young guys and just release their energy.

I'd like to see our ECF team a lot more for the second unit. Maybe with one of Horford or Hayward as needed but I like the energy we showed last night against the Pelicans and I like the idea of making our second unit just more of an energy unit instead of vet lead or slower unit.

Rozier, Smart, Brown, Tatum ,Theis or TimeLord. And just let them go at it. Maybe they run into each other but they'll run into the other team as well and they'll play fast. The change in pace too might alone be effective as a changeup.

But I thought Marcus Smart was terrible offensively and that when he is on the floor we are essentially playing four on five?!

100 percent.

The Wizards are in disarray and they have been grossly overrated the past several years, but they still have enough talent to have a great game at home.

Gotta come out and hit them in the mouth early.

Yeah I agree with this.

Trap games are mainly against young energetic teams that have yet to get their deserved accolades because they lose a lot but are good players regardless.

The Nets are a trap game.

The Wizards are a core that's played together and do not play for each other. So despite the talent they end up being more of a .500 team.

Idk how many of our players will be available for this game, but our energy players should find they're outhustling them some (our Smart, Roizer, Theis players).

Wall has looked a step slow to start the season but is rounding into form, and if you can't BLOW by Smart you're in trouble. Would love to see him on Wall all game. Hopefully Wall quits and lets us contain him, that should be an easy way to really destroy the flow of their offense.

Assuming Wall plays that is.

Ah so I thought Smart only had 3 turnovers last night, with that answer make it 4.

I didn't even know Pokemon is still a show, just googled it and Ash Ketchum still hasn't won a Pokemon League championship?

It's been twenty some years/seasons since I watched the first season of that show as a kid and this **** still can't finish the job? I hope Pikachu left his soft ass.

Looks promising as of today, guess we'll see tomorrow.

I want this game on the road. Friday at home vs. Atlanta likely won't be too hard.
