About two hours before the game, Walton had talked about this sometimes magical rivalry while acknowledging that he wished it still felt like it once did. These two teams are on different planes now. The Celtics are on the doorstep of the league’s elite, while the Lakers are simply searching for their identity.

And Friday night offered compelling evidence of these two realities. The Celtics were balanced, free-flowing and relentless, except for one sloppy spurt in the second half that was probably the result of a lead that had simply swelled to a point that was impossible to sustain.

The Lakers, meanwhile, didn’t even get back to stop teams from throwing off-the-backboard alley-oops in their home arena. The large crowd that seemed eager to get excited about something was left to do little more than shout down some sparse “MVP” chants that were directed at the enemy, Thomas.

Haven't beat the Clippers in LA since Ray Allen was on the team

If they play like they did last night, tonight could get ugly

Yeah usually games would get pretty ugly when they play them in Staples they used to play lot of TNT games during west coast swing those days they seem to love to everyone on the west coast team just going through motions haha. I got a feeling they will show up early I'm probably gonna take C's first half I just sick of how this team has long lulls in 2nd half of games even in the Lakers game they let them nikkas cut a 30+ point lead down to 12 like nothing.

We're now tied in the loss column with Washington, with our next two games coming against teams that already smashed us in the home arena this season

Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst

Why do the celtics hold finishing 2nd so high ? As long as you stay out of the 4/5 what difference does it make ?
