Why would they trade for a Center like Zeller who is absolute garbage?
There will always be a market for Nerlens, giving him a contract and then trading him at a later time makes a lot more sense than trading for Zeller and some
picks.

That Memphis pick looking really good right now
Good timeout, Brad
THIS is the Celtics defense that I know and love.

When the Rockets switched, Horford did what he should have done, sweeping through straight to the rim with the knowledge he could body Patrick Beverley all the way to the hoop. To realize how perfectly the Celtics executed in that situation, check out Horford's shooting percentages at the rim over the past five seasons, per Basketball-Reference.com:
2012-13: 75.2 percent
2013-14: 75.4 percent
2014-15: 75.0 percent
2015-16: 74.5 percent
That's absolutely elite, and Horford has been even better early this season. He entered Monday night hitting 81.5 percent of his shots within three feet. He just missed one at the wrong time, prompting his sister to chime in on Twitter:

And Bradley's shot should've been counted as a 3.

Without Isaiah this is a classic trap game
This is the ideal game for Al to go for 20 & 10
The rate at which Avery's rebounding the ball is crazy.
I'll say this about Smart, at least he still tries on defense
Can't say the same for Bradley & Crowder
