With the holiday preparations taking place, I’m unable to run a Delonte.com game thread tonight to discuss the game play of the Celtics or Bobcats… So please head on over to the Celtics Blog Game Thread to discuss. Still, feel free to add your thoughts on my keys to tonight’s game as posted a couple of days ago.
Celtics Injury Update…
• Al Jefferson, Game Time Decision
• Delonte West, Game Time Decision
• Kendrick Perkins, Game Time Decision
Bobcats Injury Update…
• Brevin Knight, Out
• Alan Anderson, Out
It’s important to note though that Brevin Knight is expected to miss tonight’s game against the Celtics, which should really help out the Boston PG’s who struggled to defend him back in their November 8th meeting.
I’m recording the game and will watch it much later tonight so I can follow up with stats and a (poor?) analysis… But in the meantime, here’s hoping for another win in the Celtics streak!
