    Boston's entire starting lineup is out or questionable.

    there are no penalties for benching starters in Blazer games. The league has designated Portland as a draft & development sanctuary.

    Lillard, CJ, & the Melo crew rolled into Boston and torched the Celtics 4 years ago. Jaylen Brown went 6-22, and many blogs were written on Celtic stinkiness.

    The following year the Dameless Blazers uglied up another game in Boston. Tatum went 0-6 from deep, and Brown piled up another batch of bricks. The Celtics got bullied by Nurkic, and Portland's secret weapon Ben McLemore canned 4 triples off the bench. Once again, the relentless army of podcasters in Beantown aquired gaslighting cannisters and ridiculed their team.

    Why would Tatum & Brown play tonight? a mixture of revenge, win #50, and practice reps against a Blazers team that is bottom of the barrel in opponent FG%

    You live in a very interesting world sir/ma’am if you believe Tatum and Brown have this game circled on their calender. Very interesting indeed FAMS.

    Or maybe they will start the second teamers, see if they can win with them?

    While I'm sure they don't have circled on a calendar, they are likely licking their lips for this easy win.

    It's like a little mini vacation in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Come sit by the pool and drink wine then go sit on the sidelines at the Moda and watch a game.
    Just stay out of the strip clubs.
