Guys, I know the Boston squad is firing on all cylinders, what with Rob Williams back and the treys falling.

But….but….BUT…..

We do not have an answer for Bismark Boyombo. We are the HMS Hood to his, well, you get it.

59951

And if we double Bismark (say, with the Prince of Wales),

59950

Gerald Henderson will make us pay from outside.

59952

And if we attack Henderson (with, say, a Threatt), we’ll just get exposed by DeSagana Diop, The Dakar Time Lord.

59953

And so if you scheme for Diop, wither Boris Diaw?

59949

Wither Boris?

59947

Wither Boris I say!

59948

Wither motherfucking Boris?

Bernie has proven unafraid to deviate from protocol. This is a new step, and admittedly a bold one--may it continue to pay dividends.

Based on Celts' injury report (as of yesterday), looks like Rob will likely be resting with back to back coming up, and Smart is questionable. Hoping Grant Williams gains some momentum from his big game and that Jaylen bounces back from a poor shooting night.

I, for one, believe we should ride this chaotic train of broken-Bernie-protocol as far as it will take us.

The TimeLord plays at all days and times and against all teams at once. Or, wait, is that actually Doctor Manhattan? Maybe they're related.

If we're going to break from protocol, I'm going to start rooting for Brad Lohaus to hit some 3Ps.

I mean can you imagine how much he's going get paid next year as a stretch 5 coing off an age 31 season where he had a 3P% OF .416?

this cracked me up. Hope TimeLord and Smart both rest up and the other Celtics don't cheesedick anything away.

Pels strategy of letting the Celtics shoot wide open threes is working so far early in this game

...say, now that I think about it, does anyone remember what happened to the last franchise they had in Charlotte? Maybe where they moved to or what they're called now?

Nah, me either.

Maybe it's cuz I watch every minute of every game, but it seems like the C's have just missed a lot more fucking MONSTER dunks than anyone this season.

When the Celtics move the ball AND their shots are falling, they are literally unstoppable, even when their 2 best defenders aren't even playing.

Why do mediocre 3pt teams light it up against the celtics? Motivated to beat the best?
McCollum has been on a heater lately. He came in hitting 60 of his last 110 from 3 in his last 12 games (including a 1/7 game). He's 4/4 again tonight.

Offensively, anyway. I get that we’re down TL and Marcus tonight, but NO is down Zion—we should be able to defend them better.
NOLA is also without Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones. They're more short-handed than the C's are.

Meh, if Tatum had gone 2/5 from 3, and McCollum had merely gone 4/7, the C's would be up by 15, and the Pels would have 52 points. McCollum is single handedly keeping them in this game.
