So Boston Celtics President of Basketball Operations may have moved enough pieces around to stumble upon the perfect mix.

Ime Udoka had this team humming before the trade deadline, but Stevens may have hit a home run–the Houdini certainly believes so at the very least–and now no longer require an NBA Play-in win to qualify for the postseason…and are a small run away from the #1 seed.

It’s a realistic thought, Boston Celtics fans. Embrace this feeling.

Before we put the carriage too far ahead of the horse, the Cs need to take down a team that has proven difficult to beat for Boston in 2021-22, the Philadelphia 76ers.

Hardwood Houdini has a prediction, odds, and TV information for the Tuesday night matchup at the Wells Fargo Arena:

This one gets the national spotlight on TNT for the first game of a doubleheader featuring a 2021 Western Conference finals rematch between the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns on the backend.

So there’s one notable debut that won’t be happening tonight and one that will. The arrangement benefits the Celtics.

Daniel Theis is set to return, and while the whistles will surely ago against his will, the German big man will provide depth and make the current Cs frontcourt the deepest its been since 2018-19.

Meanwhile, James Harden won’t be making his debut for the Philadelphia 76ers after the seismic Ben Simmons swap with the Brooklyn Nets, further robbing the Sixers of depth considering the losses of Seth Curry and Andre Drummond in said deal as well.

Bet on Boston.

Pick: Celtics -1 (-110)
