Boston celtics 2nd in team defensive efficiency

[Myth]

I don't think there's a bad seat in the place. The better fans are usually up top. The rich snobby ones are closer. Anyways, enjoy the game man.

That is pretty typical. This will be my 6th different team's home game (Portland, Lakers, Clippers, Suns, Hawks, and now Celtics). I'll make sure to hit up a NY Knicks game next season, and maybe a Nets, Wizards, and/or 76ers game.

[Derka]

My seats aren't great, but I'll still be happy to be there.

I sat eye-level with the banners when I went to the Chicago game a few weeks back. Still a great place to be

[Derka]

Light up?

Dude shot 9-27 to get 38 points. If that's lighting up, then LeBron lit up GS in the Finals last year.

You gotta let him vent. The Lakers are 2nd from the bottom and hopping on the GS bandwagon is all he's got right now.

I'll be at that game tonight. My first game in Boston.

That's awesome. Have fun. I assume by your avitar you will be rooting for Portland.

Yep, it is where I was raised and lived until my late 20s.

[MMM]

Should be a good matchup tonight with the red hot Blazers. Defense against offense. Yeah they defended Steph well. No denying that.

Red hot blazers 14-2 in their last 16
Celtics 12-4 in the same stretch
Celtics also on a current 11 game home win streak

[Fallen Angel]

Their defense is great. I think that really helped Thomas make the all-star team. The Celtics are like a light version of the MVP-Rose Bulls. Everybody keeps them in it with defense, while one point guard carries the offensive load.

So Lebron should sweep them with no problem?

I like Boogie a lot, but it seems like Ainge can't find a deal there that he'd 'win'. I'm keen on getting Horford this off-season though. He's the right type of player to help expand the team, even if he's not the one 'missing piece' to switch us from playoff team to contender

Why would Horford sign with the Cs? heck why would any free agent "star" sign with the Cs?

The only way Celtics land a star is via trade and those picks are going to be the only asset for them and not the current roster/system they have there right now.

This is an even better matchup than I thought.

Celtics home streak at stake.

I love to see good young teams balling out.

Both coaches in the running for COY as well.

Correct, Cavs have no excuses for not beating the Celts.

Whoa.

Whoa.

Game has potential.

Celtics have Cap space for 2 max signings, but how they fare in the post season will factor into how attractive they look to potential FA's. With the assets and role players they have in place you would think that they get more interest from players signing on, but unfortunately Boston is rarely a blip on the FA radar.

Durant will never sign in Boston but if he did get a chance to pair himself with a great Coach I feel his career would be better off. The Celtics would no longer be a star away from contention and could potentially have a route to acquiring 2 other stars to pair KD with

[JohnnySic]

Durant would fit in perfectly but he'll never come here.

[Zach LaVine]

Durant would fit in perfectly but he'll never come here.

You could say that about any team for Durant.
