The Official BigFooty Boston Celtics Thread

[Memphis]

Okay, these are the scenario's for each to finish 6th:

Miami: Lose their last 2, Indiana to win their last 2, Philly to win all three
Indiana: Lose last 2, Philly win all three or lose one out of two and Philly to win at least 2
Philly: Fail to get more wins than the two above them

Philly have a 1-3 season record against both and Miami lead Indiana 3-0, so that's the first tiebreaker for them. I think who we play comes down to Miami vs Indiana (Miami favourites for me) and Philly vs Houston (If Houston lock in a HCA for r1 against Spurs and Indiana, who knows?)

I think we play Philly, I hope we play Indiana

I'd rather play philly than indiana. No simmons please thats an easy choice.

I don't think Indiana are any good. Philly has a 3-1 record against us and I'm very worried about Embiid.

I wouldn't be looks like he could get injured at anytime.

Don't think brett brown can out coach the mastermind brad stevens.

Forgot to mention 76ers are useless on the road too.

I'd still rather Indiana. I don't think they're as good, even with Simmons out, and I think we match up better against them.

Embiid playing on a dodgey ankle?

Sixes confirmed

 

[Memphis]

Is it still disclosed the length of the contract? or is there word on it now?

No word of the length. From what I can gather, most people seem to think it will keep him tied up until 2025.

So the brackets in the east are

1: Bucks (1) vs Magic (8)
2: Heat (4) vs Pacers (5)
3: Celtics (3) vs Sixers (6)
4: Raptors (2) vs Nets (7)

5: W1 vs W2
6: W3 vs W4

7: W5 vs W6

No Simmons, Embiid on a dodgy ankle, Horford a shadow of his former self, a lot is going to ride on Tobi & Shake for the Sixers to come out of this. I'm predicting us in 5.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Tatum's first half and Jaylen's Second

Only sour note was Gordo's sprained ankle, hopefully right for game 2.

Walker/Brown/Tatum as a PG/SG/SF combo for the next 5 years

 

[Jack Richards]

Hayward out for 4 weeks... Jeeesus.

Not ideal

 

[eth-dog]

That's basically until conference finals.

 

[Memphis]

Hayward out means more minutes for Smart and everyone else.

We should have enough to get to the ECF.

 

[Borough Blood]

Stache Gordon

 

[eth-dog]

Also, how did Marcus Smart not get nominated for defensive POTY?

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Tatum has 14 points already. I am erect

They can't stop him.

Not in smarts house!

Tatum has arrived friends.

What an enjoyable game this game has been after quarter time.

Firmly believe we can win the Chip this season, even without Gordo.

Red would be so proud of this dynamic young team.

That's a huge call but I think we match up very well with Toronto and will be able to handle the Bucks. Clippers are our biggest worry IMO and if we can make it to the Championships, anyone can win over 7.

And people were worried about JT’s first game back . He’s on .
