Celtics (34-10) at Heat (24-20) Game #45 1/25/24

Did I just see Butler hit JB with the ball?

So much for the game.

I mean, we're up 22 halfway through the third. We should absolutely be able to hold on and win without just KP when otherwise healthy.

I'm talking about title chances. Just a rolled ankle?

That's what it looked like to me. Didn't look like it was fully rolled over either.

Doubt he comes back with the lead regardless, but hopefully it's not too bad. It's always so hard to tell with just looking at them how bad ankle rolls are.

I remember one time rolling my ankle and I swore I broke it. One of the worst pains in my life, yet an hour later it didn't even swell? Yet other times you slightly tweak it and it's swollen for a week haha

I love seeing Tatum fight for rebounds. That's two good rebounds (one offensive, then defensive) from him in a row.

This may have already been addressed, but the contrived "Heat Culture" jerseys and the descriptions imaged into the lane areas would seem to me to work against Miami if they are playing any decent team that has some pride. You are just motivating your opponent to play with extra toughness and intensity.

Welcome to the rivalry Mr. Rozier.

Agreed. Also, they both look awful as well.

Ankle sprain per Allie

[liam]

Jure is having a terrible game.

[celticinorlando]

My guess is we don’t see KP for a bit with that sprained ankle. Might motivate Brad to go get someone at the deadline.

Thank God Al is plug and play

[jpotter33]

Doubtful to return. That's already a good sign that he's not automatically ruled out.

[ozgod]

Left ankle sprain, doubtful to return, I guess the fact they haven’t ruled him out totally means it’s not too bad? I don’t think we will see him again tonight mind you but maybe it looked worse than it is. Fingers crossed!

[hwangjini_1]

good time out by mazzula there. settle things down way before miami can get a run going.

[tenn_smoothie]

Wow !!  Great timeout by Joe.

[keevsnick]

Doubtful is better than straight out, but ankles also tend to stiffen up the days following the injury so my guess is he'll miss some time going forward. Hopefully not much.

[CelticSooner]

Still shooting 64%. Best shooting game of the season, Miami can't make up any ground.
