Every time Boston won a title, the following year was great Fun watching them defend it with the Us against the world mentality. This year is rather joyless, and the constant narrative being Driven to death by some posters on here with Boston will just turn it on come playoffs and there is nothing wrong, really makes watching this regular season literally meaningless. If/when they have an impressive victory (rather very rare these days.) it's look how great they are. But when they lose, it's "the regular season doesn't matter anyway"

INJURY REPORT:

Scheierman and Sons all OUT. Everyone else is AVAILABLE. Stop sucking esp our starting five.
Murray is QUESTIONABLE, Murphy is AVAILABLE, Ingram and Herb Jones are OUT.

Zion WIlliamson has a winning record (3-2) vs. the Celtics, putting up 26/8/3 splits on 56% TS% and 1:1 A:TO. CJ McCollum does not (7-13). Pelicans have lost 6 straight to the Cs and 9 of the last 12. In all of their wins, Zion played.

Jrue Holiday was 4-5 vs. the Celtics as a Pelican.

Unignore me for more irrelevant information.

2024-25 Celtics, #ItsAnyonesGame!

Saw Petersen take a shot to the head on Tuesday I’m assuming it’s what led to his concussion protocol. He needed a minute and actually called for the sub but the ref denied it (old girl had an ego compare to the other 2 refs so not surprising really), but super poor form to deny a substitution for a guy who’s now shown to be in concussion protocol. He played several minutes after and was very involved even, so hopefully just precautionary and him staying out there longer than he should have didn’t make things worse.

I expect a win of 12 points or more and a more aggressive Brown on the glass. He gave no effort last game.

I don't want KP within 8 feet of Zion's human mass. I'd rather lose by 20 than lose one of KP's legs.

Gotta think the C's come out swinging after the bad loss the other night. Zion is coming off a suspension so I'm thinking he'll come out swinging as well. Pels fans are excited that Trey Murphy is back. I could really use a cushy Celtics win today but just win please. I think we're 0-2 with our top 8 on the court, which is dumb.

[Fencer reregistered]

Re-upping this, because the most famous verse about a peiican seems very appropriate for Zion ...


“A wonderful bird is the Pelican.
His beak can hold more than his belly can.
He can hold in his beak
Enough food for a week!
But I'll be darned if I know how the hellican?”
― Dixon Lanier Merritt

[Red2]

Do we win this one or does the home skid continue?

[bisme37]

Enjoy the big game you guys

Go C's let's get this win! For real this time!!

[Celts17Pride]

Zion 30/20 game incoming with the Celtics frontcourt, shouldn’t be enough for a Pelican win. We’ll see.

[Shak_Celts]

Let’s kick some pels!!!

[Shak_Celts]

50-11rbs no bucket

[Shak_Celts]

Why did Tatum wait for kp, go sir go!

[BlameTheRefs]

Here we go again

[PierceFan4ever]

JB shouldn’t be an all star this season imo

We’re forcing way too much with the KP stuff and it’s hurting everyone’s game especially our back court who just stand around at the three.
