look out payton

there is enough room for two sweet shooting whites on the celtics

payton is gonna have a hard time getting minutes with smart brogdon white in front of him tho

hauser on the other hand should get plenty of burn if he keeps hoisting good

payton will be ok. he'll will have continue to have an nba career as a role playing guy off the bench, but he may do it on three or four more teams before it's over.

yeah pretty much

Decided I was going to watch Celtic Pride, but unfortunately you have to rent it

lagoon can I borrow your Criterion Edition Blu-ray?

lol np

celtics need to get donte and pat connaughton then they will have the yin and yang of boston an italian guy and a irish guy

New: The #Celtics made a number of deals at last year's trade deadline and were very close to another one according to Donte DiVincenzo https://t.co/O6bkjpdd3s

i’m surprised that actually got close given those teams had a pretty good chance of seeing each other in the playoffs.

bucks prob not too scared of donte

true, maybe it was a mutual sabotage attempt

celtics have made a lot of 3s this preseason, dont want to jump the gun but their roster does have more shooting this year, too bad gallo got died

also pretty sure brogdon is a better fit than white or smart, will be interesting to see how that plays out

right now theyre bringing him off the bench and maybe it makes sense to do that let him cook with second units and then finish games with a small lineup, keep his minutes down since hes injury prone, but towards the end of the season theyre prob going to want to get him more burn than that scheme affords

congrats to haverhill native vonleh

Forward/center Noah Vonleh has made the Boston Celtics opening night roster, sources tell ESPN. Vonleh capped his preseason with a 14 point, 13-rebound game vs. Charlotte. A former lottery pick, he played last season in China.

good for him, always had the feeling that maturity issues were part of why he didn’t pan out so hopefully that is behind him now.

yeah youd think theres a spot of him in the league

thats nice of them to invite marcus

Per @SIChrisMannix, this #Celtics Sports Illustrated cover photo was only supposed to be Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.

The Jays, however, wanted Marcus Smart included.

They got their wish. pic.twitter.com/zhF5gJCZpS

Does Sports Illustrated matter any more?

nah

the jays have their quirks but seem to be unusually thoughtful for guys in their position.

vibes seem great all around, i read a piece where blake was raving about how chill the team is and another where brogdon apparently was given a choice between boston and toronto and picked the c’s, which makes me feel better about him having any issues with his role.

yeah he seems very bought in ready to win and so forth also probably recognizes theres a big role for him if he does the right stuff

he checked the vibes

my boy rwiii got platelets injected and “could be” back for the second half of the season :/

he really should not have been playing in the playoffs last year huh

im sure its all chill just getting a lil that kobe

lol

Joe Mazzulla was asked to clarify what he said in a huddle during the Al Horford foul review when he appeared to say, 'The most important thing is [blank]'

Joe: "I said the most important thing is don’t listen to anything I’m saying."

that's a veteran answer lol

he was coaching in the mountain east conf a few years ago incredible, couldnt even get in the mountain west

hahah i didn't know there was a "mountain east," that's great. he's the son of a rhode island basketball lifer so maybe new england + mountain east grit will guide him.

this is great

Nothing like that first win✅💦 pic.twitter.com/73dNqcg9jt

lol got him

we love the side to side multiple flowing actions baby its what we want

Little thing but just like the mindset from the Celtics on offense. Vonleh screens for Brown, Embiid gets up to the level so that's done. Swing to Horford now Tatum comes off a screen from Smart. Just side to side, wave actions. pic.twitter.com/77VPCavJlU

the celtics have for the second game in a row beat both a quality opponent and the scheming refs

rip tyler

impressed by hauser on D.

vonleh also looks comfortably capable of soaking up those theis minutes. he's not a threat to shoot but his D seems fine and he gets the occasional put-back.

brown and tatum guilty occasionally of hero ball but i guess you have to do that stuff sometimes otherwise you're not going to draw the coverage for your kick-outs to actually work.

starting to feel a lot better about this season!

celtics are going to win a bunch of games early this season just by being locked in and ready to go while most other teams are still getting up to speed

thats the stuff baby

In Boston's first 2 games, Marcus Smart guarded James Harden, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey, P.J. Tucker, Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, and Kyle Lowry for 102 total possessions.

In those 102 possessions, Smart allowed those 7 players to score 11 points combined. pic.twitter.com/w4ev5hSQj9

celtics just not caring their coach got fired for scandalous behavior right before the start of the season is pretty cool and funny

let the "coaches are not important" discourse begin

lets fuckin do this im ready

interesting detail that when brad went to the front office he hired a guy who was much more of an a-dog type coach just a very different personality than him but now with mazzulla were back to a nerdy soft spoken guy

when they do one of those mic'ed up moments in the huddle where the coach is gesticulating and barking at his players i'm like okay wow finally we're going to really understand how they set up their plays, the secret sauce and i swear every time it's just "get stops! stay connected! let's do this!"

lol its true a lot of the in game communication is just rah rah shit

Although to be fair pretty sure there is some kind of agreement between the league and teams that mic’ed up stuff that gets broadcast won’t reveal strategy or plays or anything, so we tend to get the most benign moments

it increasingly seems like maybe the guys listened to udoka but didn’t feel a ton of affection for him.

yeah i never got that sense with brad either though. maybe in the IT era when he had them outsmarting more talented teams but not after
