Nate Robinson Will Not Play Tonight in Portland

The Boston Celtics play the Portland Trailblazers tonight at 10:30 pm Eastern.

No Recap on this game.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to do a recap of the game tonight. If time allows, I will try to do one later on Saturday.

At any rate, the Celtics newest addition, 5’9″ Nate Robinson, will not play tonight. Doc has set Sunday against the Nuggets as Robinson’s Celtic debut.

But Marcus Camby, the Trailblazer’s newest pick up, will play at center, and start as well.

Due to season ending injuries to Greg Oden and Joel Pryzbilla, the big man starved Blazers, went out and picked up a fine short term answer in shot blocker/rebounder Marcus Camby. Camby can also hit the mid range jumper and plays solid interior defense.

Portland gave up PG Steve Blake and forward Travis Outlaw to get Camby. They are still hoping to get into the playoffs and make some noise when they do.

Brandon Roy, out since Jan 20th with a hamstring injury, will also play tonight.

Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe just tweeted that Paul Pierce will be a game time decision with a sprained right thumb.
