Big test at Target Center tonight...Celtics GDT

Post by longstrangetrip [enjin:6600564] »

I'll be out battling the snow tonight so not watching the game until tomorrow morning, but it should be a fun one. Have does Thibs line up the defense? Covington on Irving, Wig on Tatum, and an undersized Teague on Brown? I would consider it. Boston is playing the back end of a BTB, but last night's blowout allowed them to rest their starters...Horford had the night off. Boston has been struggling this season, but better in their last 2 games. Wolves are favored by 2 and really need this win tonight.

Yeah, it will be interesting to see how they guard Irving....may be they leave Teague on him but hard hedge on the screen and roll to try to get the ball out of his hands. That would mean RoCo on Tatum, but we'll see.

The other thing to watch is whether Horford stifles KAT. He does as good of job as anyone guarding KAT. Since we don't have a ton of offensive options, we really need KAT to play well. Boston is better than their record indicates.

I'm Watching a Boston stream. Scal had questions for Thibs for the pregame scrum and they were having a good time with each other. They showed Rose warning up and scal was out there laughing and chatting with Rose and Lucas who was rebounding for Rose. Chris Mannix was half of the On studio pair and is kind of annoying. I think he thinks he knows a lot more than he does.

That's exactly what they'd probably want us to do. Unless he can seal him off for an easy layup, I'd avoid trying to go to something he simply never does. He should get some cleaner looks on 3 (in theory) though since he is so much longer than Irving.
