No Fournier, No Theis, No Thompson, No Teague ... No Win ... In fact, it could be downright ugly unless the core can muster to fight for 48 minutes.
Rather than "enjoy the game" let's just see what we can take away from this game with the players/coach hopefully given incentive to do moar than they have recently ... Monday will see Thompson and Langford restored to the roster and Fournier will be ready come Saturday.
Oh, and Danny has denied the Smart rumors as just that so Marcus shouldn't let all that trade talk disrupt his love for the Celtics and their fans.
Ainge also gave the Marcus Smart trade rumors an emphatic slap down. “That’s all made up stuff.”

Jay King: Stevens said Pritchard is another guy who will get more opportunities because of the trade deadline moves. Said Marcus Smart could also play some as the second-unit point guard, though. That doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll come off the bench. Just that he’ll play with bench units. – via Twitter ByJayKing Brad Stevens, Marcus Smart, Payton Pritchard, Boston Celtics
