Tim Bontemps: Grant Williams is back and has no minutes restrictions, and the same situation for Al Horford, per Celtics coach Ime Udoka. Both have been unavailable due to COVID protocols for several games. Udoka has no update on Jayson Tatum’s status, other than him entering them today.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

having Al and GWill back should help a lot.  also hoping the new 5-day protocols are also in effect for Tatum so we get him back sooner

Well, that was fun while it lasted. Wish the C’s could have kept him on as a player coach or something. Would have been great for the J’s.

Joe Johnson back to free agency

A player you put in for blowout wins. Tacko fall filled this role the last few seasons. Crowd chants we want tacko when we are up 22 in the 4th.

Breaking news:


Jared Weiss: Enes Freedom and Jayson Tatum are back in practice per Ime Udoka. Jabari Parker was out with dental work and Aaron Nesmith is waiting to return negative texts before he hits the floor. via Twitter JaredWeissNBA
 
John Karalis: Ime Udoka says it doesn’t appear Jayson Tatum’s COVID case was as severe this time as it was last time, so there’s hope that he won’t have the same limitations. Says Tatum has had a few sessions to get his wind back and he has looked good in practice.– via Twitter John_Karalis

I know.  I was trying to be witty by implying that we haven’t had any games warranting “victory cigars”, but my wry tone didn’t get expressed through text.

Jared Weiss: Tatum on Joe Johnson: “We all enjoyed the time that he was here…The ultimate professional and somebody a lot of us look up to and obviously, we would have loved to keep him around. I’m certain it was less about him and more about business.” Still watches Cs games and texts JT.
