Will be nice to get Kemba and hopefully Payton back. Perhaps Tremont could do us a favor and have a stomach ache tomorrow or something. Go C's!

One of these decades they'll have their five best players all healthy and without minutes restriction. I can just feel it. Yam Madar is the healthiest player on this team.

This is one of those games I want to see Teague unleashed. Directly into the Pacific Ocean. If he brings his floaters, he should be fine.

Three seasons ago, the Hospital Celtics kept winning despite missing Hayward, Irving, and players w/ random minor injuries (I think this was also the season Jaylen fell on his head). Now, the injuries are taking their toll. Funny how depth (or lack of it) works.

Started in the 2nd quarter but I didn't think much of it because he kept playing. I think he tweaked it again on that layup.

If JB's knee is even 1% sore, we sit him. don't want his knees ever to be an issue in the future.

Just start Nesmith damn it!!!

Less Waters and more Teague with (along with a positive +/-) and this is an easy W.

Clips are balling, going to need the Hornets Kemba tonight..... At what point do we stop babying our PG, because the two J's are going to get burned out by carrying the load without Cobra, PP and relying on our D league bench. This team needs to get healthy, but more importantly it's time to upgrade Danny Boy! A lot of dead weight on this roster

Wins over really good teams this season: 1 (Bucks)
Wins over decent teams: 3 (Pacers, Grizzlies, Warriors)
The rest wins came vs bad teams.

So it will be another loss.

As long as we stick to playing badminton or table tennis we've got this.

Oh wait it's a basketball game? Nevermind.

Celtics just need to win 1 of the next 3 IMO, going to be tough though.

I could totally see them winning tonight because they always seem to win games no one think they will, like I've said before

The thing is no one can really know if his knee is 1% sore but Jaylen, and I'm thinking he's gong to say he's fine because he wants to play the Clippers. Hopefully that will be good decision and not a terrible one.

Return to Boston Celtics
