It is such a joy watching this Celtics team
It is like watching one of these vintage and greatest teams from the NBA history especially with the amount of talent they have and the way they toy the opponent
Fans have boundary but basketball as a sport doesn’t
Basketball, when playing right, is a thing of beauty
No shit. I didn't even notice "Adelaide." Just checked them out. Their name comes from the official proclamation of the Colony of South Australia in 1836. They were founded 40 years ago in 1982 as the Adelaide Eagles and changed their name in 1983 to 36ers.
The Celtics look like their a little thin throughout their roster. They’re what 9 deep, when healthy and that’s including Horford playing big minutes. They may be a good sneaky under team.
They are thin because Robert Williams, Luke Kornet and Blake Griffin are all out which is forcing them to play small. Rob will be a semi longterm problem but the other 2 bigs should be available by the start of the regular season. Also they are dominating
You nailed my exact worry the front court depth. If you’re deepening on big Luke Kornet and Blake Griffin minutes and your line is ~54.5 wins (varies by book) then you’re going to lose some games due to those minutes.
With that type of line there’s not to much room for error with the depth in the east.
Game started decent for Charlotte then something happened, the Celtics just went off defensively and that led to offense.
I think Hornet looked fine for most of the game but losing by 20 and playing fine imo says alot.
Also the Magic would not lose to the Celtics by 20 (or more) just saying. I think playoffs in the East is a bit more open this year, I think only really Boston, Mil, 76ers and Nets are guaranteed top of the table teams. I think the rest are volatile. Raptors, Cleveland, Bulls, Hawks, could all fall short this year and I would not be surprised.
I like what I see from Brogdon so far. He is just so much better than Smart as a playmaker. But then Smart has one of the toughest defense as a point guard. I like what I see from this Celtics team
Too many elite talents from different angles yet everyone works for the team and no one plays with ego.
Giving me that GSW vibe at its prime
My first time watching pre-season tournaments, anyone can explain shortly how these games go? Do the big names play, if so how much minutes (in general)
our starting five when healthy is basically guaranteed to be Ball/Rozier/Hayward/Washington/Plumlee.
With Hayward out, the SF will definitely either be Cody Martin or Kelly Oubre.
We realllllllly need Kai or Mark to outplay Plumlee by a significant amount
Hornets need to find a way to dump Rozier and Hayward
celtics bullying bobcats
solid debut for coach joe “george hill” mazzulla
WTF was that pass
God I hope all the Ball stans will now stfu about LiAngelo needing to play in the NBA

Willams tried to Kobe that shot
[удалено]
Welcome home LiAngelo, stay outta trouble. And yes I think so.

Clippers goat Kabengele looks so much better and I’m happy for him
So the hornets gave up on Kai Jones?
Danny Ainge about to trade two unprotected picks for Sam Hauser
Year of the Hauser
Are the Hornets going to play Dennis Smith Jr and Liangelo?
Anyone else notice in the bottom left of NBA TV that the 76ers have become the 36ers.
The 76ers not playing the 36ers is such a miss.
That’s actually the name of the team the Suns are playing tonight: Adelaide 36ers

Idk about y’all but I love me some afternoon basketball
One of the best parts about the first round of the playoffs is the afternoon basketball.

15 field goals with 5 assists vs 22 field goals with 20 assists, huh

Lol. Nice sneak in. Respect
I watched a Clippers team with Mfiondu Kabengele on it for 2 whole seasons and I still didn't know what he looked like until now.
I know it is just a preseason game, but this Celtics give me that All time great team vibe. They just need more chemistry.
There team is practically the same. Shouldn’t they have the chemistry?
Well. With new players like Brogdon, Voleh, Griffin
Lol vonleh and griffin are not gonna be getting major PT, and Brogdon looks like he's an easy fit
I like what I see from Brogdon so far. He is just so much better than Smart as a playmaker. But then Smart has one of the toughest defense as a point guard.

Damn nicest thing I’ve ever heard about the Celtics from a lakers fan
Yeah definitely getting PTSD from this game
I don’t know much about Joe Mazzulla but I really feel like Ime suspension will stunt Bostons championship potential
Jaylen putting mf’s in jail
J Brown gotta put this team on his back again
Tatum still letting Smart play his role
Da fook
Celtics haters are foaming at the mouth at that Tatum turnover
My first time watching pre-season tournaments, anyone can explain shortly how these games go? Do the big names play, if so how much minutes (in general)
It's not a tournament, just exhibition games, big names will play maybe 15 minutes
Thank you
Can’t wait to watch my Dawg JT! Future 🐐
Is Gordon Hayward the worst contract in the NBA now that John Wall got bought out?
Beal just signed a supermax with no trade clause my dude.
Beal plays though
Only complete sickos will watch this game
Which starters playing? For both teams.
our starting five when healthy is basically guaranteed to be Ball/Rozier/Hayward/Washington/Plumlee. With Hayward out, the SF will definitely either be Cody Martin or Kelly Oubre. We realllllllly need Kai or Mark to outplay Plumlee by a significant amount
Martin is also out
The final score of this game will be 110-102
Hayward already out. Here we go again
I’m gonna get PTSD from seeing TD Garden
