In a game that means little to nothing to this Celtics team because our seeding can't change at this point, the bulk of our starting unit was out due to "injury". With that being said, Tatum and Fournier both went to Brad and asked if they could play because they didn't play great last game. Tatum still struggled shooting tonight but we did see a real solid performance from Fournier. Fournier added 18 points on 6-11 from the field including 5-8 from 3 along with a rebound and 6 assists. With JB out for the season, the chances of the Celtics making any sort of deep run in the playoffs in pretty unlikely but if it is at all possible, we are going to need the playmaking ability of Fournier to shine through like it has in the month of May so far as he is averaging 5ast per game. Our upcoming game against the Knicks means absolutely nothing to us so I wouldn't be surprised if we see all of our starters sitting this one out to get some rest before the Play In Game.
