I have a bad feeling about Morris' knee. That second unit already has a hard time scoring, without him it's gonna be tougher to score.No Kyrie and no Morris tonight.

“He is wearing an ASO [Ankle Stabilizing Orthosis] brace most of the day now,” Stevens told Krzyzewski.
Stevens added that Hayward has been lifting in the weight room, as well as using the “training table just like our guys.” Despite not playing in games, Hayward also has his own shooting time — something that has been the case since he was shooting out of a chair in a boot.
The rush of good news has sparked flooding optimism, but Stevens said the team is still keeping their expectations at bay.
“His status is — the way that we’ve looked at it the whole time — is we don’t expect him back this year,” he told Krzyzewski. “But he shoots for all of his goals — week-to-week, day-to-day — to try to expedite it as much as he can because he obviously wants to be back, like any athlete, as soon as they can.”

Boston outscoring their opponents by 16 points per 100 possessions better. Their net rating is second only the Warriors, and comfortable ahead of the Rockets. The breakdown is interesting too.

The problem I've been saying for the last 4-5 games is that Celtics have been really lacking on offense
The main reason is they don't have alot of offensive options. It's only really Kyrie, Brown, Horford, then it's a wild card after that. Tatum is a rookie and gonna be inconsistent

Morris should've been a bigger contributor offensively but obviously he's been hurt all season and has been a disappointment.
But we wouldn't even be having these concerns if Hayward was playing.

Exactly. And as much as I love Horford on offense, he's been extremely bad on defense. Just like this Utah Jazz game they lost. The amount of dribble drives that were allowed last night was
Would be so fitting if this were to happen.
