    Would be a bummer if these teams were not at relative even strength. Don't think anyone wants this win to come with an asterisks next to it.

      This Baynes guy is insufferable

        Celtics win with Kyrie out with a suspected concussion (no word if he plays against the Raptors) the Bucks and the Greek Freak wins with new PG Bledsoe contributing.
        In what world is a team with Russell Westbrook, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony not a favourite? When two of them are class one jerks lol. The lineups out west are crazy, there might be three teams that could conceivable beat the Cavs

          I do
          There are no asterisks in the W column last time I looked
          Time to break their ridiculous 11 game run and I couldn't care less how they do it....

            Trying to improve my win streak to 3. Power of positivity from tipoff till the final buzzer sounds. Let's fucking go! Down with Boston, down I say!

              What on earth are you talking about? A win’s a win.

                I definitely would prefer Kyrie play (and Horford) because I think the Raps are the better team when at their best and should win either way, but could totally see them laying an egg not playing hard because the Celts are short handed. They've done it three times this year already.

                  i agree that it would be nice to face their full team but you also never know how valuable an early head to head win might be at the end of the season when the seeds settle out. Go Raps.

                    I want concussed Kyrie playing who might not feel 100% and would be more prone for mistakes/ fatigue then give more minutes to Smart or Rozier who will punish our guards by driving more to the basket because of lack of D.

                      If Kyrie doesn't play the key matchup will be Jaylen Brown vs. DeMar I think.

                        Kyrie with a minor facial fracture. Most likely out tm

                          Really need to win this game especially with Kyrie out. Idc about proving who the better team is. I want the #1 seed. This year is our chance to get it with Cleveland dilly-dallying about and no real clear top team.

                          We get that #1 seed, we guarantee homecourt advantage through the east. That at least gives us some sliver of hope of getting to the finals, especially since we usually bogey at least one home game.

                              I really wanted him to play. Now if we win it’s not a real win.
