I always prefer winning 😁😁😁 but I wouldn't go that far in case we somehow don't win

Toronto without all 3 beat Indiana and mavs (- Doncic)

C's never win in Toronto, so even with the injuries and being favored by 4 I am pessimistic.

Last win was on a Marcus Smart offensive rebound put back his rookie year.

Edit: http://bkref.com/tiny/K2n6A here is a list of all the BOS @ TOR games. Since 2010 we just lose up there.

Was it Gerald Green’s rookie or sophomore year we went into Toronto and beat them, with his signature sealing dunk at end of game infuriating the Raptors? We needed those moments to keep our sanity back then.

It was indeed his rookie year, good memory!

Tony Allen to Green for a dunk to seal the game. Also Morris Peterson LIT up the Celtics that game holy crap.  :o

It's so strange seeing Robin Lopez spotting up around the three point line and launching 3s.

Welcome to the new NBA!

Seriously, I'm also watching Giannis try some 3s and missing badly. Embiid to his credit is actually making them, but yeah, times have really changed in the past 10 years.

It's a pity Philly are having such a good 3 point shooting night. Hard to learn much about how these two teams would fare against one another in a playoff series when one team is shooting lights out (uncharacteristically so at that).

False image of this matchup.

Embiid deserves credit. Having a monster game, and absolutely neutralizing Giannis on defense. Giannis meanwhile having an awful game. And Giannis is like 0-7 from beyond the arc lol... but keep shooting!

Lol somehow, a 29 point lead is now just 9 with over a minute to go for PHI.

DLo is awesome. Maybe the warriors should keep him next year

Both lakers and clippers with some ridiculous turnovers.
We can punish both of these teams in the finals if they turn it like this

Kevin Hart giving his Lakers a LITTLE lump of coal on Christmas Night



I LOVE it.

A Celtics win on the road - on Christmas - against a quality team. A Lakers loss.
