Not gonna happen, but Rockets-like starting lineup of Kemba-Smart-Langford-Tatum-Grant would be cool to see. Keep Wanamaker and Kanter as the main guys off the bench.

Who's even available for the Hawks?

Give Romeo another start in place of Hayward or Brown!

Wow. We're still depeleted.
Got our PG's back, though.

Kanter cannot stay with Collins lol.

Tatum should go for 200 points tbh. Unprecedented in the NBA IINM.

Reddish OUT, Bruno Fern DOUBTFUL, Dedmon UNCLEAR, Skal NOT EVEN IN SHOOTAROUND, DeAndre Hunter AVAILABLE for Hawks.

I'm good with resting Kemba for a couple of more days too. Seems like that left knee has been chronic all year, unless he's close to 100%, why push it? Although I also do understand shaking the rust off before this 3 game stretch coming up. I expected a little more out of TW Monday night against Trae Young, maybe the comfort and confidence level will be higher at home?

I still own a condo on Jabari Parker Place. I still believe in him, partially because I felt he was going to be the Paul Pierce to Andrew Wiggins' Vince Carter. :lol:

After Atlanta the Celtics have a very tough schedule to close February.

@OKC
@HOU
LAC
@MINN
@LAL
@POR
@UTAH
HOU

That's a very tough 8 games. Brad Stevens and the Celtics are trying to get players as healthy as possible for that stretch. Celtics should have no problem beating a depleted Hawks team (because of injury and trades) at home tonight.

After seeing it be ATL again I was wondering when we'd ever play a real team.

Well then... ouchies.

I could see a lot of Ls in there. That Clippers one should be a home game (I think the T wolves might be as well). West coast games aren't easy no matter who you play and those are all pretty much playoff teams aside from Minnesota and Portland may not be in but is a very talented team.

We don't have 7 straight road games. That Clippers game is a home game.

The Red Claws played last night with Tacko, Edwards and Waters all starting. Still, the injury report might mean Tacko gets activated for this one, while Edwards and Waters stay with Maine.

Romeo Langford starting again would be fun to see, and a good sign that Brad Stevens wants to see more of him.
