Celtics (47-28) at Raptors (42-32) Game #76 3/28/22

[Surferdad]

Green Kornet's time to shine.

It would be nice, but watching him in garbage time, he has not impressed me. Hard to believe they couldn’t find a better big for the end of the bench. Could use one tonight

I’ll be surprised if we don’t see Tatum playing the 4 a fair amount, with Nesmith getting some run.

Grant needs to have a big game, or this is a loss. No pressure Batman!

BIG GAME!

Are we just resting AL...

Are we just resting AL...

He's got some personal business he's attending to.  We don't have any idea what it is, as far as I know.

I was partying last night I notice when I am out drinking, Celtics do very well and when i sit down and watch the game we kinda struggle.   :laugh:but how was like nesmith looking- He looks fresh with the new gains and hair- I liked the Block too. Hopefully he gets some useful mins.

UPDATE:  Robert Williams has suffered a torn meniscus and will be out likely at least into the first round of the playoffs.

UPDATE:  The Celtics are signing Juwan Morgan of the Maine Celtics to a 10 day contract.  I'm not sure if he will be available for this game.

UPDATE #3    Khem Birch is a late scratch from the Raptors starting lineup due to swelling in his knee.   I'm guessing that Precious Achiuwa will get the start in his  place.

Thought it was his sister's wedding (and I mentioned that in the last game thread) but she tweeted out that's not what it is.

"This team is so overrated." "Fire Ime." "Trade Tatum." "We got ripped off in the White trade."


Sorry, just rehearsing for tomorrow in case Tatum sits and we lose.

Per Keith Smith:
Jaylen Brown - Right Knee Tendinopathy - OUT
Al Horford - Personal Reasons - OUT
Jayson Tatum - Right Patella Tendinopathy - OUT
Robert Williams - Left Knee Lateral Meniscal Tear - OUT

This is what a 'schedule loss' looks like. lol

Timelord, Al, and the Jays all out tonight. Probably the right move for rest and avoid any other injuries.

Who’s ready for PP to put up 40?!

[Atzar]

Yeah, I suspected they'd do that.  Tatum and Brown were already questionable heading into the Wolves game and that was a very physical contest.  Bummer but I get it.

[SHAQATTACK]

Now it’s Marcus Smart and four more players .

We looking to dodge first round with the Nets too.

Not surprised Jays shut down , with Rob already hurt.

We ll just take our lumps for a couple weeks
