    The Rockets usually rise up vs good teams. We are getting into a groove. Celtics favored by 2 now. I kinda like the Rockets to win straight up.

    What do you think about this one?

    The Celtics are playing well behind the remarkable in-season leap of Tatum.

    Kemba is out again with a sore knee.

    Robert Williams makes his long awaited return. He's been out since early December and will be on a minutes restriction. If he can stay healthy, Williams is a good addition for Boston heading down the stretch as he's a different sort of center from Theis and Kanter.



    One of those two losses was to the Rockets.

    If we lose tonight, the media will be all over Harden. Saying he can't back up his words since Giannis went out and destroyed OKC last night.

    I seem to remember Kemba being a great playmaker for them in the last matchup. That absence should hurt them.

    Robert Williams picked wrong game to return. Love this player but he will not like living on the perimeter.

    The first team to play our micro ball lineup twice. Interesting to see what adjustments they have made since losing to us

    Carroll can be a key player defensively during the playoffs. He has the size and instincts that we need coming off the bench. I hope MDA keeps him in the rotation.

    Love Demarre's energy.

    He slides feet really well and has very active hands so he can maximize every bit of his length.

    House should pattern defensive game after Demarre's.
