Why in the world are the Celtics up against the Jets playing on MNF? I will slap Adam Silver for this.

White is out again, Porzingis is questionable with a right eye sty (Jared Weiss says it didn't look good today).

So, depth will be tested tonight - should be illuminating.

(edit - beaten to the punch above)

Hope everything is OK with the Whites' newborn. He went from Probable yesterday to Out, meaning they'd been expecting him to travel for this.

Derrick White missing is going to be problematic.

Wolves probably get their 2nd scalp this season.

Hope I'm wrong

Cs will shoot the lights out and run away with it.
Yep, I think this one is pretty simple. Assuming KP is out too, this will be like a lot of games last season. Shoot 40% from 3, profit. Don't, probably lose.

FTR, I had an internal sty below my right eye for about a month that just got better about a week ago. I've had external ones (the ones you can see, and IMO, are more painful) my entire life at various times, but never an internal one. With the internal one, I think he could play, but external when they are painful, feels like something is in your eye constantly and it sucks. The internal one had basically no pain, just discomfort, like having a small marble under my bottom eye lid.

Anyway, these games really don't mean much in the grand scheme, and sneaking in rest never hurts. Just kind of a shitty matchup to lose KP, given the 2 bigs that the Wolves will use.

During the broadcast against the nets they said cjm wasn't sure if he would be in Minnesota. So hopefully this is just Derrick taking family time.
It's also one of the longer hauls for a trip to Minnesota, after which the team travels no farther than Philly until next Friday 11/17.

(am on tape delay) that choir for the national anthem absolutely stunk. No two people were singing the same note.

Just get some local celebrity singer, no matter how two-bit, get a professional. C'mon now. Or a well-trained amateur, but someone who's legit. If you're not gonna do that, you gotta go with some kids who are young enough to be cute even if they're off-key. None of this "100 people who sing for school credit" BS. If that's what you're gonna do then just don't sing the national anthem, there's no law that says you have to.

I'm sure there's an A-Rod joke in here somewhere.

Turning them over early. Already 4 live ball TOs for Wolves. Maybe Celtics want to prove who the best NBA defense is.

Next time you gun for the 2 for 1 maybe don’t make the front end a Pritchard/Kornet two man game.
