The Bulls hold a 2-1 record vs the Celtics.

The Bulls beat us 120-102 in Chicago, Lost in Boston 123-107 and beat us in Chicago 121-107.

The Celtics have an opportunity to even things up tonight.

We had some offensive issues against them but in my opinion the real problem was our defense.  In the 3 games against us the Bulls averaged 120 PPG.

Marcus Smart is likely out tonight after injuring his knee.  RW may get the start and DW would be at the point.

However based on our 3 games against them, I would start Brogdon at the point and also insert RW in the lineup. (we need rebounding and rim protection)
 
For the record Brogdon has scored 23, 12 and 25 points in the 3 games or 20 PPG average.
Some things fall right off the page.  DW has been dog crap vs the bulls ( 5, 7 and 4 points) in 3 games.

How does a staring line up of Brogdon, Brown, Tatum, Horford and R Williams sound?

My wife just told me the Celtics will start DW and PP in the backcourt.

Got one question. Who is going to check Ayo Dosunmu?

(3 games vs Celtics 10 points 5/8, 11 points 5/8 and 20 points 9/10)

Tonight and the next game vs. BKN we're going to find out pretty quickly whether we're still wallowing in .500-ball mediocrity or are we back on track more at a more attractive .750-.800-ball pace and have taken CJ's motivational speech to heart about sending the same message every night similar to earlier in the season.

That's really it.  Nothing else to add!

P.S. Per ESPN, Kevin Durant out for a month with strained MCL in right knee.
