Injuries to other teams happen and usually the team that stays the healthiest and/or has the best talent win in the post season. The Celtics are one of the healthiest teams in the league this year and have good talent and have a very good bench. So if people are going to minimize the Cs accomplishments because they are staying healthy and their opponents aren't, then they just don't understand playoff badketball.

I wouldnt call us healthiest esp since we almost didnt have our starting five for half the season.

Its actually unfair how these idiots take away our wins because of injuries, when they dont mention it when we lost against the Hawks last year.

IDK, but after the Morris injury I just have a bad feeling that they're gonna try injuring Isaiah or Avery. Washington is a dirty team.

Well they already knocked his tooth out and that didn't work. What else can they do? All adversity does is make this team play better so bring it on.

Oh, and did anyone else see the Wizards fans and several writers that were claiming that Horford might have injured Morris on purpose, just because a similar situation happened to Beal a couple of years back? Even Morris himself was hinting at that and said he would ask Horford about it. Talk about petty!

I did see that. I have to admit, that was pretty crafty of Horford. He waited until just the right moment when he could try and block a shot, twisting his body in just such a way that he could step on Morris's foot. I'm guessing that he practiced that play in warm-ups.

Morris stepped on Horford not the other way around. Morris went up for the shot and when he came down his foot landed directly on top of Horford's foot which caused him to twist his ankle violently. I highly doubt Horford did it on purpose - it happened too fast and he seemed like he was just playing tight defense. Maybe I'm just naive....
Players are aware of the danger in landing on someones foot and they know that you have to give shooters room to land. That said, I dont think it was dirty.

I do find it hilarious that other fanbases are under the impression that we have 2 ****ing enforcers down low in Kelly Olynyk and Al Horford.

Everyone knows not to **** with Boston or else you have to deal with Kelly and Al.

Kelly Olynyk, the bunned enforcer.

That's why they're idiots. If they have any more questions, they can count the banners.

We are the healthest right now because all 15 of our guys are healthy and available. When you're in that condition if you aren't the healthest in the league, you are tied for it.

Some games he is soft as bread dough and other games he is decent.   Hoping for the later tonight.
