Celtics (37-20) at Raptors (33-24) Game #58 2/24/17

IT should know when to take over or rely on his teammates. When your shot is not falling, you know its time to distribute the ball.

[PhoSita]

The Celts have zero answer for DeMar. Easily the most important player for the raps against the Celts.

Ibaka and Tucker should really solidify their defense. The raps are a huge matchup problem for the Celts.

This is going to be a very bad loss if it happens.

The team also misses Bradley a lot.

Jaylen brown needs to be a strong second option.  Get him the ball!

[SparzWizard]

Even with DeMar DeRozan back the Celtics would barely lose. Definitely Avery Bradley is missed here.

But seriously, when you are up 17 points you need to continue building the momentum.

Once again, Smart making things happen.

OMG THESE REFS... Just get on your knees for them, refs. Where's that call on Tucker on the other end? 

[The Oracle]

I HATE SMALL BALL....trading buckets.

[liam]

Wow, another bad call!

[RockinRyA]

Ainge do you regret not trading for Serge Ibaka now??? 

Nope. The question was never fit, its about salary and flexibility. Sign Ibaka and getting a second all-star almost goes out the window.

This is going to be a very bad loss if it happens.

The team also misses Bradley a lot.

It's not Bradley it's ainges lack of upgrade.  We got out rebounded and out hustled and they keyed in on IT.  Welcome to the playoffs

[jpotter33]

Oh, another board that Horford couldn't get to..

[PhoSita]

Tucker and DeMar killed the Celts. Man. Size on the wing.

[SCeltic34]

These refs are atrocious.  What's new.

The complete shift of momentum dates back to that BS flagrant-1 on IT.  Garbage.

[TomHeinsohn]

Toronto made moves and got better. Ibaka was a major factor tonight
