Could be a season defining game.

Let’s get it.

LaMelo out.
Malik out.
No word on Gordo as yet.

Bombs away for Graham and Rozier.

‘Bout time we start to see Biz taking those wide open 3’s from the top of the key instead of handing the ball off.

Maybe Coach Borrego will surprise us and play a rookie gunner or big man.

Going to need Graham to go on one of his tears that he went on last season

Looks like Miles may start after all. I notice that Boston does not start anyone taller than 6' 8". Might be a good game for Cody Zeller to show what he can do.

Yeah we actually match up with Boston alright, when we aren’t missing 44% of our scoring that is. They’re favored by 9.

Bismack doing busy things.

Edit: Nice feed to Miles, though.

I always find it odd to see Adam Silver's name on the game ball, considering he is the scrawniest, most unathletic sports commissioner I have ever seen.

Pretty good energy to start here. Celtics look less motivated. Would be great to keep this going.

Miles with a good turn as starter. Let's see what happens now.

So Miles comes out early, then reenters when Zeller gets on the court. Good plan.

What happens first, we win the finals or Fournier misses a shot?

We’d be winning by a lot if we stopped giving up open 3’s.
