Holiday, 51 points last night on 30 attempts.  Wow.  I hope his arms are tired.

Was really looking forward to this game for the last couple of weeks, but the loss to the Wizards really took the air out of the sails for me for this particular game.  Now I just want to skip all this and get to the playoffs.

This is a litmus test for the Cs. Since the break, the Bucks seem like they are in a league of their own. Let’s see if Cs are right there with them.

Yeah, while the 1 seed is realistically out of the question now, beating the Bucks tonight would send a strong message that regardless of homecourt advantage, the Celtics are still the team to beat in the East.

Also, I think both this game and especially the Sixers game have the chance to be huge psychological advantages for us in the playoffs. If we could somehow win both of those games, we’d be 6-1 against Milwaukee and Phoenix this year, with the 1 loss having a huge asterisk given no starters played.

Cs by 20 tonight.

Lets GO CELTICS!!!!
no more trash efforts for the rest of the year.

Even if we can't get the #1 seed, we need to get on a roll...

[Neurotic Guy]

Getting a little nervous for this one.

I'm excited. This is a big test for the C's. I do agree with some posters above, even if the 1 seed is out of question, the goal should still be to find a groove and go into the postseason healthy and playing winning basketball. Next 3 are MIL, UTAH and PHI. Utah is mixed in but otherwise that's two of the best teams in the league in MIL and PHI. If we can beat both though, that seems to bode well for us down the stretch  and in the playoffs

I do think this team plays its best when it's backs are against the wall and against great teams when the stakes are higher and so is the adversity.

Call it both ways refs!

[Phantom255x]

Hold up this game actually started already? LOL I was expecting like a 7:50 tip off like usual for a 7:30 start due to the ads

[blink]

Reggie Miller is blind
that was COMPLETELY a hook.

[Phantom255x]

Lol so MIL hasn't fouled anyone so far? Sure... 

[blink]

I like Giannis until we have to play him, and I see all the bs foul calls he gets.
