    It will be interesting to see if we can hang in there or if it's a total blowout.

    if the celtics are on one of their bad nights, anything can happen, even blazers can beat them

    but if theyre on one of their good nights... well, lets just say it wont be pretty

    that being said, why are we not tanking, theyre delusional if they think they can compete in the playoffs (they would most likely lose in the play-in)

    maybe id be okay with that if we had better head coach, but not with chauncey billups

    Celtics are in a tough one game turnaround away/home/away 3 games in four days with the first two games OT and double OT.
    If the Blazers can get a little rest and come out shooting well they can be in this game. Trick on the road is to try and keep it close.
    Is Simons still "Questionable"? That could help a bit.

    A 5-1 road trip is still in the cards. I ain't sayin nothin' good about Boston. I don't want to disrupt the Blazers 2 game win streak.

    Underneath Fenway there is a bunch of shops and a small amusement park and there used to be a bowling alley. Not sure if it's still there but there used to be quite a bit to go around Fenway.

    I missed the one game when Simons came back but apparently re-sprained his ankle. How did he look in that game....and did it look like he came back a little too early?

    We should really put a dent in our loss column during this stretch coming up.

    Here's an all-possessions video. He looked like he hadn't played in a while, but doesn't seem to be playing with an injury.

    Was the last play in that video the play he got hurt again? I never really saw the play?
