Boston Celtics defense, and how they'll get through a tough road ahead

[@spl1x]

This road trip is where we'll see if the C's truly got their defensive swag back. I'm feeling positive.

Tom, Tom, Tom! John, I have loved you since Red’s army and believe you at your best when working with others (Tom is my favorite, Jake also great, and I love the crossovers with other Celtics pods)

need a statement game against the thunder!!

[@tylerriley2587]

And the rockets

[@TheGreenBoomer]

Didn't we beat them by 50 points last year ?

[@mrcuret]

I'm looking forward to the next 2 weeks, we're going to find out what the Cs are about. They're about to face better competition, so let's see if they bring their A game. Banchero should be back when they face the Magic on the 17th, and they could have Wagner back, too.

FYI, flight time from Minneapolis to Houston is 2 hrs 29 min. Shorter than from Bos to Mia at 3 hrs 16 min.

Happy New Year ☘️☘️☘️

Joe is the Celtics Mad Hatter. 💚☘ ? Do you think Mike Brown would take an assistant/advisor spot here ? Hate to see a great coach sitting around for half a season.

[@tylerriley2587]

I think Mike Brown should

I see Xavier Tillman getting minutes tomorrow against the Timberwolves he has the size to guard Julius Randle.

Hey John for the Rockets their defense is good but the offense is not the best Ime is not good at coaching on offense it's all drive and kick pick and roll and iso. I saw a article that said the Rockets lack good shooting, and need a backup plan when the offensive attack theya re doing is not working.

[@tylerriley2587]

how would Al playing against the Rockets favor the Celtics

[@jacklike2526]

YES

[@DerexYoung-bx3zw]

That wouldn't work on me tom

I think they have just been lazy on defense. I’m not worried about playing tough teams but they don’t feel as dominant as last year. Maybe because they are taking a smarter approach to keeping guys rested for the playoffs.

[@CelticsRepeat2025]

Yet we have been plagued by injuries all year. Last year they had great luck aside from KP but he’s a porcelain doll no one expects him to stay healthy

Here's hoping the C's are out of the early season hangover this is the part of the season you can't let New York and Milwaukee catch up! And if you aren't going to catch the Cavs you at least need to keep the pace. 2nd place in the East still is a path to the championship 🏆.3rd and you put yourself in a world 🌎 of trash 🗑️! Banner 19 should be all that matters!
