i am not seeing any back to back to backs...check that one on april

April 13,14,15

Fri 13    @ Toronto              
 Sat 14    @ New Jersey              
 Sun 15    @ Charlotte 

At least those teams are managable (might be less so depending on what NJ does with trades).

We have Dallas on the second night of a back-to-back.

Looks brutal.  There's 18 back to backs in there.  At least the B2B2B isn't exactly a murderer's row.

This was to be expected in a condensed season. It could have been a lot worse. Doc will have to monitor Big 3's minutes very carefully...just make it to the playoffs...seeding is not important.

Looks like CP3's "return to NO game" is early in the season... harharhar.

Man, Christmas can't come soon enough.

Just get into the playoffs and see what happens.  Something like winning the title as an 8 seed would be acceptable.

I just wanna see what the final roster will look like.

Schedule is pretty bad but I would guess all teams schedules look equally as bad.

Only 1 back to back to back, and at the very end of the season.  Maybe I had just prepared myself for the worst, but I am actually OK with this schedule.  Every teams schedule is going to stink, but at least this one doesn't seem to be the worst.

Yeah that stretch in April is brutal with 5 games in 6 days but the Celtics will probably know exactly where they will be seeded by then and will be able to rest the older guys when playing those poor teams in the back to back to back to start the stretch.

My thoughts exactly; every team's schedule is going to be just as condensed as ours.

Every team has one set of back2back2back games. Ten teams have two - Indiana, San Antonio, Detroit, Atlanta, LA Clippers, Minnesota, Phoenix, Portland, New Jersey and Philly.

The back-to-back-to-back and the 8 game Road Trip is in the last 1-1/2 months of the season where the C's usually have a good starting recorded built up and are on cruise control, resting up and healing up for the playoffs anyways. So this schedule doesn't seem that bad.
