Ultimately this game doesn't matter.  What's important is that we saw some decent individual performances.   I still don't sweat games we lose without our best player (Horford) and best two-way player (Crowder). 

But sure would like to see a Bradley game winner here or something.

Of course this game matters.  Missing Crowder and Horford isn't a great excuse, since the Pelicans are missing key players too.  Can't afford to drop to a 1-9 team when you want home court advantage in the playoffs.

This game matters in the long run because injuries are how you find out if players like Rozier and Mickey deserve more playing time or if Ainge should be looking for veterans to bolster the playoff roster.  The Celtics were almost too healthy for too much of last season.

That should have been a foul, but that's not why we lost.

I am advocating for Olynyk to be traded for for some jambalaya and beignets.

Olynyk took a big step back tonight.  Awful game by Kelly.
Yup

The Celts are missing two of their best players, but I'm still disappointed by how lackluster they are.  Especially on defense.

How many times in the first 10 games have they held an opponent below 100?

Kind of like the Pats game last night.
