A pair of FTs for Kemba ... Smart a beautiful floater from the key ... PP > Smart for three ... TT makes 1-2 FTs ... Romeo a putback layup ... C's had a poor scoring stretch in the final 5 mins or so while the Lakers sliced into our lead ... 31-23 to end Q1

JB is hot tonight! Langford don't impress me much. Zero offensive game! I have more hope for Nesmith!

BEAT LA!
The Boston Celtics may or may not be shorthanded tonight against their all-time rivals, the Los Angeles Lakers. Robert Williams III is dealing with left knee soreness, and he’s now questionable ahead of tonight’s 10 pm tip.
The Celtics are 9-1 with Robert Williams in the starting lineup since the trade deadline when Daniel Theis was shipped off to Chicago. The last time Williams missed time, Tristan Thompson was out, which led to a tough loss against the Dallas Mavericks with only Grant Williams and Luke Kornet as Boston’s relatively reliable options at the center position.
With the return of Tristan Thompson into the lineup, the Celtics are at least a little better positioned to withstand a potential Rob absence. Even without Anthony Davis and LeBron James tonight, the Lakers are pretty big up front between Montrezl Harrell, Andre Drummond and Mark Gasol. Having Robert Williams isn’t a necessity for the hot Celtics to take down the depleted Lakers, but it’ll certainly help.
Nice game thread intro Cole...well done...

I really felt if we were to have blowout game, tonight was the night. But now our lead is minimum & precarious. We should be maintaining a 10+ pt lead the whole game.

Lakers are catching up and Brown is holding court ... he needs Tatum to break out of it sooner than Q3/4 or Smart or Kemba to get hot.
