Never easy, but almost always fun.
I like to think of it as the C's way of prepping us for the stress of Super Bowl LI.

Lose to Toronto on Wednesday and those standing mean nothing. At home against Toronto is a must win. Have to make a statement Wednesday.
Ibaka to the Cs? Can't say that he wouldn't help us.
A rebounding, rim-protecting big man like Ibaka would fill an obvious need for the Celtics, who own the second-best record in the Eastern Conference but rank 26th in the NBA in rebounding differential and 27th in second-chance points allowed per game.

Toronto and Boston play but ESPN got sorry ass Minnesota vs Cleveland and Chicago hogging up TV time can't even watch a replay after I get off
The Pelicans have taken the Raptors to OT. We need them to do us a solid by pulling off this upset.
Let's go Pels! :GladBrad:

fukking Pelicans.
Of course they'd lose in OT the one time I'm rooting for them.

After one of the Celtics wins during the aforementioned first-round series, Blount talked his way into the back hallway and tried to gain access to the locker room. Without knowing any of the players on the team well, he explained his identity to one of the security guards and asked if he could join the celebration occurring on the other side of the door. The Celtics director of security, Phil Lynch, relayed the request to some of the players, according to Crowder. Essentially, they shrugged their shoulders. If the man punches in touchdowns for another Boston-area team and grows so animated while rooting for the Celtics, sure, let him in.
And Crowder said: "A lot of the times he just comes in...He chest bumps. He do all that high fives, all that crazy stuff. He's a football guy so he's got a lot of energy, especially after a win."
It's all love in Boston

I think tonight's game is the most important game of our season, thus far. It''ll be a litmus test for where the Celtics truly rank amongst the East's best. We need a MUCH BETTER performance tonight against the Raps than we had in early January.
"Wednesday night, the two teams will face off in what will arguably be the most critical matchup of the season for either squad so far.
The Raptors, who have lost six of their last seven, play Tuesday night at home against New Orleans. If they win that matchup and then beat Boston Wednesday night, they would move half a game ahead of the C’s. If Boston comes out with a win over Toronto, it will create greater separation in its favor.
The Celtics, however, have had trouble against Toronto this season. The Raptors have won both matchups so far – a 101-94 win on Dec. 9 at TD Garden, and a 114-106 win on Jan. 10 at Air Canada Centre.
The latter matchup was a heartbreaker, as the Celtics held control for much of the game before DeMar DeRozan sparked a furious comeback for the Raps.
Stopping him Wednesday night will be priority No. 1 for Boston."
