No reason to get excited …
Celtics coach Doc Rivers was asked whether Saturday’s game against Detroit might have been a distraction tonight against the Grizzlies.
“Maybe for us,” Rivers said. “I don’t think it was for Detroit. The point being is obviously Detroit was fired up when they played here last time, and they’ll be fired up when we play tomorrow, and we’ll be fired up, which is nice. It’s good to get those type of games. But just looking at their box score, they won pretty big. They don’t get too excited. And so, you know, they’ve been through everything, clearly.”
