Anxious to see how we look without Rob. Still bummed out. We were playing like legit contenders and just like that, ceiling is lowered.

So I think they are still the 3rd or 4th best team, but our chances of beating the Suns and especially the Bucks dropped significantly.

But I want to see how we play, and what adjustments Ime makes. I’d say I am cautiously optimistic.

Yeah. It's a tough blow. But, we Can ride the Wave, so to speak.
If we don't get Robert Williams back for the Playoffs, then we have an even more uphill battle.

Personally, I think that Rob should go for the Full Surgery.
Bank on his Future. Don't let this thing crop up again.

[exculpatory]

This is it, gentlemen & Shaq.

ABSO **** LUTELY MUST WIN TO GET THE ONE SEED.

BRING IT!

Herro has gone 3-11 and 5-18 in the two meetings against Boston this season. Hopefully the Boston defense can force him into that kind of night again.I much prefer those performances to the bubble where all the BS shots he threw up went in.

Adebayo would look so good in green but it will never happen unfortunately.

Beat the Heat.

I'm suspicious of this Javonte Smart character.

Someone better put a body on Bam, he will
Be the difference maker tomorrow night. Big Al needs a fountain of youth for us to keep this ship sailing in the right direction! Theis is not capable of slowing down solid BIGs in this league. Cobra and White will Prob be better options! Go C’s

[zoyathedestroya]

For the season, Celtics are 7-8 in games Timelord has missed. Cs were missing at least another starter in six of those losses. The other two were consecutive losses in late November to the Nets and Spurs where Cs shot 37% in both games lol. Every starter shot below 40% except Smart who shot 43% in both.

Is it possible nesmith slots in as a starter again or does he take grants role?

I don’t wanna see theis and horfie lineups very often but I love grant on bam he played him in high school and knows him well.

I hope someone dunks or blocks Tyler Herro into oblivion.

Grant offers a bit more size plus proven shooting and reliable defense. True, Grant has performed well against Bam in the past.

Nesmith will crack the rotation. I'm almost sure of it.

Theis vs Bam.

[KamikazeK]

If we have the whole squad except Timelord, then I would expect a comfy win.

I been really liking nesmiths game the last couple months. Something about him shooting threes at record inefficiency has made him find other ways to score. His defense too has been stellar he looks huge out there and very twitchy.

Ime should unleash the death lineup Marcus Aaron Jaylen Jayson al.

lol. isn't that the same Smart that Marcus took a picture with earlier in the season, with both of them holding their jerseys up? Or is there 3 Smarts in the NBA right now?
