No rest for the weary. Our first back to back of the season against the undefeated Celtics. The C's haven't played since Wednesday so they will be well rested. So this is another big test to see what we can do against a top notch team, without two of our starters on a B2B.

Although I am disappointed the Celtic traded Smart, their 23-24 team is deep and interesting. Really looking forward to getting my first look at them.

I thought Day'Ron did a nice job against the Bulls last night with 10 boards and 6 points in 15 minutes. He should get increased minutes tonight, we'll see.

Cam and Mikal have been a mixed bag so far. We need them both to bring there A game tonight.

Royce and DFS have brought a lot to the table this season on both ends.

Jacque did a nice job not giving anybody crazy minutes last night.

this feels like a schedule loss if not an outright sort of unwinnable game. if they show up competitive for this one it will probably take some kind of big individual performance from cam or bridges. which even if they lose would be a great sign against the class of the east.

going 2-2 in the next 4 games would be a borderline miracle. if they do that coming out the other side the schedule gets pretty favorable pretty quickly.

If Clax comes back and can give us a good 20 minutes I think we might have a shot at keeping this competitive. We need to shoot the lights out and play better D than we already have. I think this can be a close one.

I am praying Claxton is 90-95% so he can play tonight.

So far they’ve weathered the Celtics early storm and has gotten back into the game. Lonnie Walker literally changed the momentum in our favor.

I honestly don't understand Royce's shot sometimes.

Give the Nets the same whistle as the C's and they probably double their FTA... Celtics have gotten a ton of fortunate reputation based bailout calls.

The Nets are missing good shots that doesn’t help either.

Yeah that's true. I'm just frustrated at the blatant disparity in how little contact is needed for Brown or Tatum to go to the line compared to Bridges and Thomas.

I probably shouldn't be as the Celtics and Lakers year after year get preferential treatment from the referees, but it doesn't make it any less frustrating.
