Celtics (3-6) at Sixers (0-10) Game #10 11/19/14

[AngryAndIrritable]

I don't think I'll ever have to Google as many of a starting team and bench as I just had to do for the Aimingfor76losses-ers.

At least not until next year...

Do we know when Mahcus will be back?

Just read that he's traveling with the team on this 2 game road trip but not expected to play.  But when they travel that usually means very soon.

I give the edge to the Celtics we play with pride, Sixers do not.

Sixers will likely play their best game of the year whereas the Celtics are reeling now from 3 losses. Would really like to see a win but I think the Sixers may pull this one off.

[BleedGreen1989]

This game is like a lose/lose.

If we lose, it's a disgrace, but if we win, it proves absolutely nothing as it's against one of the worst teams in history.

Get the win and get the heck out of town please.

Does anyone have a link to a stream of the game that uses csnne, because I've had to listen to the broadcasting tandems of our opponents over the past 2-3 contests, and they're just turrible .

The Celtics defense has been problematic for them in their losses.  They are allowing teams to score 109.4 (3rd in the league  on 48.3 percent shooting (4th)  They are even worse than the 76ers, who are allowing 105.4 points (6th) and 46.4% (8th).   So, as bad as the Sixers have been,  they are better on defense than the Celtics. 

The Sixers, however, have been dismal on offense, averaging a league worst 88.5 points per game.  In spite of their defensive struggles, the Celtics are averaging 107.4 points per game, which ranks them 3rd in the league. 

The resistible force meets the movable object.

I like it, TP.  We might actually hold these guys under 100 (I can dream, right?)

Haha...TP back at you...made me laugh...BUT...You might be giving our D too much credit.

 Maybe a better way to phrase it is that the inept Philadelphia "Seventy-Stinkers"  O will hold themselves to under a 100.

I unfortunately agree.    Win only saves face ......loss is a total disgrace ....which could led to team confidence issues. 



This is a chance for Philly to actually win a game ....so they'll be up for it at hone.   Would not be a bit surprised to see the Celtics go down in this one .   

It's almost a set up game to loose.

This maybe the Lowest of lows tonight.  Ugh.

Haha, thanks Mike, I'd forgotten that terrible Philly beat us 3 out of 4 last season.

Zeller could really make a huge diff ...if they would start him tonight......not wait till the team falls  to pieces ...with three early fouls on KO.

If We Lose this game whose head rolls?

If we fall to pieces against THIS team, we've got bigger problems than who's starting at C. 

I am worried about Olynyk foul trouble though.

It's going to look very, very bad for Brad Stevens.

Will likely be the first time people really start to question his "potential".

[fairweatherfan]

If We Lose this game whose head rolls?

Literally?  No one.

Figuratively?  Also no one.  People will post some angry things on the Internet though.

I like scalabrine, i don't like our defense. We're still asleep.
