The Boston Celtics will face the Indiana Pacers on Monday (Dec. 4) in the quarter-finals of the inaugural in-season tournament. If the Celtics win, they will progress onto the semi-finals, where they will face either the New York Knicks or Milwaukee Bucks. Otherwise, the losers from each game will play a regular-season contest on Friday (Dec. 8.)
Boston will have to navigate another game without Kristaps Porzingis in their rotation. The big man is still recovering from his calf injury against the Orlando Magic. However, the Celtics should still have enough in the tank to deal with the Indiana Pacers.
Still, it’s always worth doing your due diligence, which is why the Green With Envy Podcast drafted in Caitlin Cooper of “Basketball, She Wrote” to breakdown the upcoming contest.
With a heavy focus on X’s and O’s and both team’s strengths and weaknesses, the podcast episode was designed to have fans prepared for what will undoubtedly be an in-season tournament battle.
