Looking forward to the Tommy celebration. So far, the Pierce tribute was the best I've ever seen. Tommy was one of a kind.

People have too much time on their hands. This is what happens when they make fans wait so long for a game.

I’m stuck trying to figure out which seeding is best for the Celtics.

There’s 2 ways to go about it:

Go for the 1 seed, win today, push the heat towards the 4th seed which is what we would want for a potential round 2 BUT there’s that chance we could get the Nets in round 1 without Rob. If you get the 1 or 2 seed, Brooklyn might be in the way and that’s tough. However say we avoid brooklyn and get the one seed with the heat being the 4th? That’s by far the best bracket to be in.

Now if we lose today, we go down to the 4th seed I think and the heat are back in the 1 seed which is something that we would want although without home court. We likely would need to beat one of the bulls or raptors in round 1 but there’s zero chance we match up with Brooklyn. We can beat those teams without Rob and then we’ll most likely have our full squad starting round 2 while giving away the home court advantage. The 4th seed might be the safest option in this scenario.

I wouldn't bother playing those kinds of games right now. We have no idea how seeding is going to shake out because teams are too close together, no real point in trying to game out trying to face the Heat in the second round based on where standings are today based on a half game difference between them and the Sixers or Bucks. You might accidentally end up slotting yourself into playing the Bucks in the second round or Nets in the first round by dropping games now, which is exactly what you're trying to avoid. There's even an outside possibility that if you lose too many games, you slip into fifth or sixth seed behind the Raptors and Bulls. Right now I would just focus on winning games and staying healthy.

Obviously we shouldn't try to lose today but considering the Nets possibility, losing isn't the end of the world.

We have the Pacers and Wiz kids coming up right after too, two should-be wins

It is assumed Jays will play. Grant, Smart, and Horf are your other starters.

Looking forward to a good game on Tommy night. Let’s get this win and return to the #1 seed. Let’s Go Celtics!!!

Edit: I guess the Celtics would be the 2nd if they win tonight but you get the idea.

Celts17Pride · Post #55 » by **Celts17Pride** » Wed Mar 30, 2022 11:00 pm

Haven’t been around in a while but I’ve been watching. Jayson Tatum approaching all world level, Jaylen Brown improving, Pritchard red hot, DWhite getting more comfortable and playing well, Nesmith playing with a ton of energy and Smart playing like a top point guard. Tons of great stuff with the Celtics.

Udoka should be COY in my opinion. Celtics fortunate Ime is the coach.

Last thought is the Celtics end of bench guys played like Celtics. Really impressed.

Let’s keep this train rolling!!!!

Edit: How can I forget Grant? Just awesome

Anyone know forsure what’s the jays and als vaccination status’ are?

I swore Jayson said he is vaxxed can’t remember Jaylen or al tho. Lots of rumors swirling around about missing the Toronto game and refusing to disclose vax status.

Rumors are trash. Udoka said they were vaxxed. Tatum has said he is vaxxed. If they weren't on the injury report sunday and today it would have been one thing but this is just obvious rumor spreading and I don't understand why.
