I read that Harden is on a streak of 14 straight games with 25+ points.

Longest such streak in Rockets history. I wonder if that is on his mind right now. I think it is.

Playing Sullinger 28-32 minutes a night off the bench might be a better option than starting him and giving him similar minutes.
Agreed. Benching Bass might mess with his confidence. How we're using Sully right know works, so why change it?

This defense/effort from Terry, Bradley, Lee, Green and Sullinger has been absolutely mindblowing. 

I hope I don't see any more complaining about Terry because his afford has been off the charts today, and his defense in the last few games has been absolutely outstanding.

Even against a far bigger (hight and weight) Harden Terry has done an amazing job and his hustle on that save earlier in the game was inspiring.

Green looks like he is finally awakening.

Lee has been outstanding

Bradley's defense has made Harden look like a 3rd string SG

Garnett and Bradley are both playing well for the starters. 

I love this team right now!!!!

Sully is slowly reaching major trade chip-to-untradable status.  And I love it!

i'm glad that you love this team right now because, evidently, our GM does not. he is as bad as the posters on CelticsBlog about constantly thinking, "Now, who can i trade next ?"

Been speaking to Danny?  Don't believe everything you read about who C's are talking to or offering.  Mostly, Danny doing his due dilligence to ensure no stone unturned.  He should trade if he can make the team better.

C's have looked really good tonight with a couple of small exceptions when Houston went on those 1st and 3rd quarter runs.  the bench has really stepped up this game and played like the bench we hoped we had before we started this season.  this team may have actually finally turned the corner.  can't wait for wilcox to get back.

Or he could be worried about the shelf life of his Isaac Hayes / Mr. T hybrid look.
Yup

This Celtics team right now can beat any team on any court. What a change.
