Portis always plays well against us. I think Reggie Jackson is another one...who else? Sometimes certain guys just always step it up against certain teams.
Let’s go Celtics!!

Devin Booker, no doubt. Guy has averaged like 50 points last 2 games @TD Garden

Oh, and Kevin Love, which is unfortunate when we play CLE (regular season and playoffs)

Like, Love is a good player and a walking double-double, I know, but the guy makes it look so easy playing against us and seems to drain everything (3s, fadeaways, etc.). Horford definitely doesn't seem to match up well against him.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
Enes Kanter always seems to kick our butts. He missed some easy put-backs the other night, but he seemingly grabs every offensive rebound.

Greg Monroe is another that has been a thorn in the Cs side; however, this season he has had a tough time getting minutes (both with the Bucks and PHX).

I know it’s not anyone specific, but pretty much anyone who’s ever played for the Celtics. Seems like all of our ex-players go off against us.

DeRozan was great against us for many years.
