Rockets are so good this season, it won't bother me one bit if we lose. (Plus, Harden is my fave top-5 player).

And I'll be ecstatic if we win.

Win-win situation.

Chris Forsberg says the Celtics will shuffle Jaylen Brown and Jonas Jerebko into the starting lineup tonight. Smart and Amir will come off the bench.

Good.  Hopefully this can keep Rozier from trying to run an offense.

The JJ one was expected for the matchup, but the Brown change was certainly unexpected, especially playing against Harden.

Brad said in another quote that this change had nothing to do with the Smart incident last night, so I'm guessing this change is to keep the bench from collapsing the game like it has lately, along with trying to get Smart back into his element. I think that's the biggest issue with Bradley's absence. Along with losing his shooting, it forces Smart off of the bench into the starting lineup, which greatly reduces an already lackluster bench full of young players.

If Jaylen is on Harden he might foul out in the first quarter.

Smart is the only guy on this roster with a prayer against Harden.

Anyone else ready to hear the TD Garden Boos as Harden gets his "superstar calls" tonight?

Refs are going to hurt us even more than usual tonight (and they do a good job of that anyways...)
