Half the headlines on realgm about their players being hurt. Siakam, Gasol and Powell all injured. Could see them slide down standings a bit

That’s been the Celtics case all season so far, and there have been no headlines for our injuries

In fairness, Kemba jaylen and Jayson have all been available for almost all of the games so far

And we have missed Hayward, Smart and Kanter for long stretches. That is as good a threesome as Toronto's three injured players and yet, nationally you heard very little about the Celtics injury problems.

Boston can't help it if even after losing Hayward, Smart, Kanter, Timelord and others for games here and there that they still have three top notch, All-Star quality players on the team.

I shed no tears for teams that are injured after possibly losing a title in 2017-18 due to injuries.

To be clear I’m not feeling bad for them, thought this was pretty notable news given they are a rival for seeding and the siakam injury sounds pretty bad (out indefinitely)

Celts face the Raptors twice next week.

It would be nice if Celts win both games to further solidify the Celts' hold on the 2nd seed.

It would be great to erase that memory of the 2010 Finals if the Celts make it to the 2020 Finals.

Oh I don't think thats true. The Hayward injury in particular was covered by almost every NBA source I can think. But in general I agree, every team has injuries I'm not shedding tears for a team that just won it all last year.
