The Celtics were able to beat the Rose-less Bulls in Boston last weekend, it seems like the Bulls will be playing without their star again tonight. I am having a really hard time writing this preview, because I don't know if KG is going to play tonight. If he plays I think the Celtics have a good chance to win, because when he is out there he makes this Celtics defense one of the best in the NBA, but when he isn't this is just a different team.
I am expecting Pierce and Allen to show up tonight after that disgusting performance last night. Rondo should once again put up God-like stats with no Rose on the court. Still, I think this could be a very tough game for the Celtics. They are playing back-to-back games, on the road, and the last time they beat this team the Bulls they shot 38.6 percent, committed 13 turnovers and still only lost by 4.
Once again, if KG plays I give the Celtics a chance, but if he doesn't I think this could get ugly. I know DP gets pissed when I pick the Celtics to lose, but sorry I don't see them winning this game. Hopefully I am wrong.
Bulls win 89-85
Game starts at 8pm
