PHILADELPHIA -- Should the Celtics consider starting Al Horford? CLNS Media's Bobby Manning and Josue Pavon debate following Boston's 117-107 win over the Philadelphia 76ers, Al Horford stepped into the starting lineup in place of Kristaps Porzingis (knee contusion). Horford scored 14 points, including a significant block on Maxey's driving layup late in the 4th. Horford showcased his range, going 4 for 8 from the 3-point line, contributing to the Celtics' statement win to reclaim the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. Should Boston start Al or at least vs Philly specifically?
