IMO it's gonna depend on what type of calls IT gets on offense. Are the refs gonna let them play like crazed men, or will they call a tight game.

The C's need a response to the Wizards swarming all over IT, trapping him, and trying to turn him into a passer.

Should be interesting to see if the Celtics brain trust come up with anything different.

I think people are being a bit too pessimistic. This Washington team is a COMPLETELY different team on the road. Further, our supporting cast should be much better at home than they were in Washington the last two games, so I don't see any blowout happening. I think it will be close until the end.

that Washington being a "completely different team on the road" concept isn't something to fall in love with. esp. considering they've had pretty much a 20 pt. lead(at least) in every game. all they have to do is play a lil better if they do that again.

By that same token, we've yet to put together a full game, and we've barely put together one to two good halves. We're due for a really good all-around game, and I think it's tonight.

Tonight may be some of these guys' last game at the TD Garden in Celtics uniform.

That's a pretty pessimistic viewpoint.  Take it back.

Yeah, listen to salty.  We're going to win this one convincingly.

Salty knows best, but I'm very, very nervous about this one.

This is a lot more fun than falling down by double digits.
