Raptors (11-18) at Celtics (24-6) Game #31 12/29/23

Going to be lots of Queta tonight. Good test for him.

Was hoping we’d at least have Tatum tonight, too. Figured we would be not having either KP or Al playing the B2B, so not sure why we played both last night against a smaller Pistons team with a bigger Toronto team tonight.

Hate that the home streak is in big jeopardy now because we messed around last night and prevented any possibility of KP or even potentially Tatum from playing.

I’m so looking forward for major Queta minutes tonight. Hopefully he doesn’t get into foul trouble.

Me too. I’m not too impressed with Queta’s 1-1 defense. He looks awkward and has missed a few rotations when away from the basket.

I like Queta's energy but he's still a little raw. He needs reps!

Yeah, we are missing 4 of our tallest guys, assuming Kornet is also out. Who's going to guard Siakam? Who's going to play backup center and power forward? This after a game we almost lost for totally getting out rebounded.

Hauser and the guards need to come up big in the rebounding dept. Kornet is not a good rebounder. Looking forward to minutes from Stevens and Brissett.

[Silas]

Cs best 3-pt shooters starting tonight....White, Holiday, and Hauser. 

[celticinorlando]

I see the Celtics are just starting four guys tonight.

[jpotter33]

Wait, how long has Barnes been starting at the point guard? Interesting lineup.

[radiohead]

I was hoping Queta would start…and then Kornet comes up with a huge block!

[blink]

sam for 3!

[celticinorlando]

Another slow start

[jpotter33]

Kornet just really sinks at rebounding.

[blink]

Trent Jr just a complete flop over acting there

[jpotter33]

Like the energy starting out!

[liam]

Luke looks fresh!
