I hope he isn't forcing things. The old crew let players play through too much stuff, I hope this new group is more cautious.

I don't think we need him right now.

National TV game?  No rest for the weary.

That's good news.  As long as Kyrie is healthy, this team has a shot at making noise.

 I’m not sure why they would play him to be honest. I feel like Boston is most likely going to be the two seed so there’s no need to rush back

He's our best player. If healthy, I don't see a reason to rest him, when we have like some 20 games left. After all he had almost a week of rest since Rockets game.

Why is it that people keep saying this? It isn't over til its over! I don't want him to rush back because of health concerns, if his health isn't an issue I want him out there win or lose.

The Celtics don't have a (recent) history of playing guys when they shouldn't be played. If anything, I'm guessing Kyrie sat against the Bulls because it was a March game against a bottom-feeder and he had a little soreness that never would've kept him out of, say, a playoff game.

I think there were times when both AB and IT4 needed to be shut down for longer stretches last season but you're right, nothing too bad. I still think they let Morris go out there b4 he was ready a couple times already this season, again, nothing too bad though.
