I can’t remember seeing Rob twist his ankle last game. He did play 36 minutes so hopefully this is just precautionary. What great timing though. We really need an insurance big. The Poeltl news may have some legs after all.

Doesn't even have to be an expensive option like Poeltl. Guys like Naz Reid are fine too

But Brad's got to get someone. Going into the postseason with Horford, Timelord and then Kornet/Griffin is not good enough.

We're still a few months away, but would it surprise anyone if Timelord also just randomly misses some games in the postseason? This guy might just be chronically hurt, sad to say

Good point and TP sir. Naz would be perfect for the Celtics. It helps that he has a pretty good three point shot to boot.

This game is the perfect test for our bigs. We’re in the midst of a 3 game losing streak and going up against AD and the Lakers. We barely beat them last time and I’m sure they’re itching for payback. Our bigs need to show up.

I like Rob, but maybe they need to consider a trade. You need a guy that can stay on the court.

I don't think think these knees are going to last long.

Before the pitchforks get hauled out, I'm just saying they should consider it.

I love the guy, the way he plays and how active he is. But your idea is not far off.
I think all of us are pulling for him, but he just seems to have a fragile physiology. Some guys do.
One example of hope might be Embidd, who stayed hurt with his feet his first few seasons,
but I think has stayed relatively healthy since.

My dad and sister said this during the Bucks game on Christmas Day and I agreed... our city edition jerseys look like Bucks jerseys LOL (the dark/dull green)

8:30 game... so naturally it'll probably start at 8:55  ::)

Let's go C's! No coming out slow or without energy. If you can't get up for this game, you might as well pack it in for the season.

Smart finally getting the respect he deserves, and not just for his defense but rightly for his offense.

As poorly as Brown has played and shot since his injury, you'd think two threes to start out wouldn't be his first shots.

His BBIQ and shot selection are still his major weaknesses.
