First few minutes in the 3rd quarter will tell you what kind of game this will be the rest of the way

[exculpatory]

Come on
Come out strong

Speaking of food:

I tried the Dunkin Donuts Beyond Meat "sausage" sandwich, yesterday. My impression was the same as every other time I've tried plant-based "meat": if it's all I had to eat, I'd have no problem with it whatsoever, but it simply doesn't taste anything meat. I can't help but think anyone who tells you otherwise either a.) was paid to do so, or b.) is already biased to really want to believe in it (i.e. vegetarians/vegans).

Add in that it's 3x as expensive, and I just don't see it taking off in it's current form.

This is coming from someone who is really supportive of the endeavor to create artificial meat. It's just not there yet.

meh, I have had a vegan scrambled hamburger and it tasted pretty close. thing is, it has a slight extra taste to it that throws me off. now, I am a vegetarian for about 6 months BUT I tasted it my first week! I have had some hotdogs that were okay but like all the things I have tried, I can't get passed that other hint of... don't really know how to describe that mysterious taste... it's like rotten but not, earthy but not, beet but not. The taste is like an after taste. It probably bothers me because I'm not a fan of mushrooms, beats, tofu type flavors. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, some of the stuff gets as close as you can using plants but I just cant eat it! Still want to try the Impossible Whopper but I don't like BK, not a fan of flame-broiled meat.

[Feed Your Head]

Need a good start to the quarter here.

Stevens should be giving Poirier and Fall a few minutes against Embiid just for a look. Last time we play Philly in the regular season

Shame on you. Beyond Meat's investors include Kyrie, KD and Chris Paul. I'm totally boycotting it.

I do try to keep my sporting reality completely separate from my main reality. I rarely have any idea what athletes are doing off the court...

FIGHT THEIS!!!!!!!!

I actually think we’re missing the lob-2-Rob option a bit

Celtics need to play smarter

[Celts17Pride]

Now is the time to put them away

[87rottweiler]

Brown’s midrange game is perfectly transferable to playoff ball when it all slows down in the half court

Hot dogs, the sausage in a D+D breakfast sandwich, fast food burgers.....it’s not like they are that great to begin with. Good vegan food or quality meat based food is way better tasting anyway. I am okay with the fake stuff when I’m eating slop.

[Shak_Celts]

smart is carrying that leg around.

No way I can live without meat. I tried the vegan thing in college once like most girls. I wanted to die after two weeks. Then I literally ran into a Burger King one day and ate a whopper in the parking lot while almost moaning out loud.

Theis does so many things well but JFC he can't catch a basketball. LIke kick it to him or something?

[RB34]

GH hasn’t made a shot but is +17

[MapleRed]

[Shak_Celts]

Gordo shoulda hit his midrange

[Shak_Celts]

This is my thing. If I want to reduce my meat intake, there are plenty of ways for me to do it that are better tasting and cheaper than these meat alternatives. If I'm going to pay the premium for artificial meat, it needs to scratch the same itch as real meat. And it just doesn't.
