Extend the season-best win streak to 9. Amazingly, the Celtics still haven't had a double-digit win streak in the Mazzulla era. We had two 9-game win streaks last season. We're currently on our fifth 5-plus-game win streak this season.

yeah, I want all of them, but I can't help but really want this one.
Show up to work and take care of business, Celtics!
So far, this team is about that. Jrue, KP, Al, Derrick, JB, JT -- all very business-like almost every night so far.

Friendly reminder:

The Sixers have gone deeper into the playoffs than the Cs only once in over 40 years. (The Iverson Finals run, of course.)

Still a rivalry, IMO, but a pretty one-sided one.

If maintained, Celtics net rating would be top 10 all-time.

7 of the top 9 teams won the title.

Acclimated X man please.. He should be considered more than just an emergency back up.. Because of certain matchups I believe he should be more playable than Kornet come playoffs..

by my math the Celtics just need to beat the Sixers by 182 points tomorrow to move into #1 all-time on this list

Will never get tired of seeing this.

Also I don't like Nick Nurse, after Spo, my most disliked coach in the NBA.

Cs need this one because the next 5 games, after this game, could be the toughest 5-game stretch of the season.

ConstableGeneva · Post #16 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Tue Feb 27, 2024 4:05 am

The Celtics are the Juggs. Until proven otherwise, in the playoffs. **** Embiid, Nurse, and the Sixers.

Yup

I have posted this several times in the last week in a couple of threads - including the Remaining Schedule thread I started recently in very large bold letters!

Luka
Steph
Donovan
Nicola
Durant & Booker

Mazzulla's occasionally given limited playing time to Banton, Brissett, Stevens, Svi and Queta vs their former teams. Maybe Springer will get a few minutes tonight. Some of those stints were probably garbage time, but there's a chance of that too.

It's Steve Kerr for me but Nurse is a close second.

I think he's way more annoying than Spo. Nurse complains and whines all the time
