Anyone looking for a consolation prize for the night:

magic up 11 on the pistons in the 4th quarter
lakers move to 4th worst if magic win

When we fall behind 20+, game over.

When the other team falls behind 20+, they come back within 5 minutes thanks largely to our bench... 

FIX THE BENCH. A "LOU WILLIAMS" OR SOMEONE WOULD REALLY HELP DANNY...

The Celtics really should complain to the league office about this schedule, though. This is such non-sense, and it's all so the NBA can make an extra buck with the London game.

Houston has literally played six fewer games than us, but they give us Houston on national tv on the second night of a back to back.

So I’ve heard this before but haven’t been paying attention.  What’s the London game?  And does this mean that we still won’t get the rest we deserve due to travel?

[blink]

Hmm.  Putting Jabari Bird on Harden was a cute little experiment Brad, but I think you could have seen the last two possessions coming.

yeah I don't understand that at all.  too bad we are missing Jaylen and Semi, both would be good to throw at Harden.

Good Lord, Horford, what the hell was that?

[SCeltic34]

That last turnover by Horford about sums it up.

We have a game in London against philly. As such Celtics FO requested rest on either side of the game. We have 4 days off before and after so he rest of our schedule is way more compact than everyone else's

D’Antoni, such an overrated coach

[blink]

so many bad TO's in the 1st half.  we are literally throwing away points/ shots / possessions

January 11, 2018, against Philadelphia 76ers.

WHY CAN'T WE JUST PLAY THEM AT WELLS FARGO OR TD GARDEN.

This botched fastbreak by Orlando is the only thing making me feel better.

So yeah, this obviously means we don’t get a real break in the second half of the season.  Wow.
