Gorman and Scal touched on this during yesterday's game, but the Celtics are a bizarre 1-6 this season when playing on two days' rest:

10/21/2022 @MIA W 111-104
11/2/2022 @CLE L 113-114
11/21/2022 @CHI L 107-121
12/10/2022 @GSW L 107-123
12/16/2022 vs ORL L 109-117
12/21/2022 vs IND L 112-117
1/1/2023 @DEN L 111-123

Obviously correlation doesn't equal causation, but it gives me agita.

And 7-0 on the second night of B2B games. Weird anomalies.

Of course, opponent strength probably has a little to do with it. Those 2-day rest teams have a 0.527 winning pct (164-147),and CLE, GSW, and DEN are all dangerous opponents. Meanwhile, the B2B teams are 0.419 (131-182).

1-7 in 2 days or more (7 straight losses)
32-5 in 2 days or less

Their offense seems to lose its rhythm. Over half of those losses weren't particularly close games.

It may mean absolutely nothing, but multiple days off happens in the playoffs. It's good that there is awareness

Me too, but it's just a regular season game with JB out and the aforementioned dayoff lag, so -cautiously optimistic: LFG! Whiplash he Warriors!
Jaylen was listed as questionable on the injury report released yesterday. Has he been ruled out?

Fuck Draymond, fuck Poole, fuck San Fran as a staff, record label and as a motherfucking crew! And if you want to be down with San Fran, then fuck you too!

(except @Sam Ray Not , he's cool)

I hate playing against this team. They shoot roughly 120% from three against us every game somehow.

16-2 paint points. Celtics are getting some pretty good looks. (Edited: Had bench on my mind.)

So much nervous energy right now. So many weird bounces and tips and guys smacking into each other on the C's.

I feel like the Celts will settle down and just blow the doors off in the 2nd half. Just gotta weather whatever 3 point barrage the Warriors end up sending at them.

Absolutely awful toss by the ref on that jump ball. Should have been a reset.

Also, this camera angle sucks ass. Hate TNT for C's games.
