Time: 5:30 pm Arizona (4:30 pm PT / 7:30 pm ET)
Place: TD Garden, Boston, MA
TV: FSAZ/NBALP

The Celtics are better than their record indicates. They lost 122-121 to the Cavaliers last week and have beat the Bulls on the road. I'm hoping for a TJ sighting after his breakout performance in the D League this weekend.

Go Suns!!!

At least they don't have dominant big men, meaning that they can't exploit our biggest weakness. They also can't really shoot, so they won't tax our perimeter D.

At least they don't have dominant big men

Be careful. Olynyk and Sullinger could drop 20 apiece any given game. Sullinger isn't a consistent rebounder, but he is capable of having big games on the boards.

Olynyk's range and catch/shoot ability is getting better and better. He can pick and pop from just about anywhere on the court. And his driving ability is impressive too. He can give his defender a pump fake at the 3-point line and drive into the lane and score. Had a couple of plays where he went right by Kevin Love and made him look silly.

Yeah Boston have really nice set of big men, Sullinger is clearly undersized at 6.9 but he really have some old men game in him, a lot of back to the basket moves, but he can also shot from the deep from time to time. Olynyk is really special talent too, he shoots 48% from deep this season so we should concentrate on defending the 3 point line.

This match isn't going to be easy but i just wish that ball movement will be better than the last few games and we should prevail.

What is up with this guy? Honest mistake?

[The Bobster]

SMH. Is he in some kind of contest to see how many totally preventable ways he can miss games? I presume this means he won't be collecting his pay for the game, barring a really damn good excuse.

[Superbone]

I sure hope it's not alcohol related.

Play Warren!

[Wally_West]

Is Warren back from the D-League yet?

[Wally_West]

Also the Suns will win huge tonight.

FUCK YOU RICHIE POWERS

[Superbone]

Is Warren back from the D-League yet?

From what I read, the plan was to bring the guys on the road trip.

[Superbone]

Powers died of a stroke in 1998 in Allentown, Pennsylvania at the age of 67.
