CELTICS 2010

having zinger as the third or fourth option is tough how do you help off of him hes already tall enough to shoot over almost everyone so how do you recover back to him and should you accomplish that he can put the ball on the floor

he gets clowned a little because he's had a weird career, but he can really score and i'm crossing my fingers that everything he's saying about just wanting to play on a winner is real

its prob legit makes sense from a career perspective for him, as to whether he can actually do the winning things guess well see

big thing for him besides staying healthy obvs is holding up on d offense should be easy

hes a bit of a gobert great around the basket but iffy on the perimeter, one good thing is the celtics have a great defensive team so theres room to cover for him

celtics running a fullcourt press sure why not

xp seems like no one is really being ambitious about crazy switching anymore...there are certainly individual matchups where you would worry about him holding up but as you say they should have enough overall talent on that end.

athletic article partially about tatum getting more serious about post play today, posting up is kind of dead but its still good to have another way to score for a guy who gets so much defensive attention, and he could turn some post ups into very makeable jumpers once hes backed his man down too, force double teams kick it out etc, also i just like him playing physical drawing fouls and so forth, hes kind of a beast now needs to push the physical advantage he has over a lot of defenders

yeah for guys of his size and skill level it's a good way to conserve some energy while also being dangerous to score, pass, or get fouled. i think the thing where you start outside the arc and either do a suicide drive at the basket or shoot a 3 has diminishing returns over time.

end of this celtics blowout scal and the new guy are talking about how pritchard hires guys in the offseason to play defense against him and scal gets kind of offended that he didnt call him and starts talking about how he has these arm pads that he wears when he training guys and then he talks about the arm pads a bunch apparently theyre quite robust "theyre great" he says

also "im the best guy in the boston area for this"

feeling like maybe payton went home for the summer thats why he didnt call scal

also the celtics had 22 steals lol

Scal is still feeling himself from when he beat that high school kid one-on-one on the Internet

scal seems like he needs a lot of attention

you have to admit the scal one on one series was a great bit tho

it was good but he probably shouldn't make it his whole personality

hes such a doof lol but i love all the guys who think they can beat a professional basketball player in one on one just cause hes dumb looking classic material

a couple years ago I had a mild argument at a party with a dude in his 40s who supposedly is good at the Y who thought he could start in the WNBA

you gotta have that irrational confidence to succeed in your local pickup game

omg the guys who think they could play in the wnba are insane they would get bodied so fast

lol hit the latest tab

you take the good (yelling) with the bad (yelling racisms) you know

The Celtics have the best fans in the NBA according to the players. But also some of the worst fans.

the passion of the yikes

charlotte what is up

when they first got a team they had a great fanbase but it went bad somewhere along the line, moving the team to new orleans then replacing it a few years later prob didnt help

they need to find more 5'3" guys who can ball, make that their identity

lol yes, also guys who are really tough but also dress up like old ladies

also guys whose kids will grow up to be the best shooters ever

Boston Celtics (57-25). It’s rare for a 57-win team with a top-five offense and defense the previous season to make radical changes during the offseason, but here we are.

guessing its unprecedented

it's true it might all turn out to be overreaction to a playoff meltdown we'll see

whose season preview are you reading

https://www.nbcsports.com/nba/news/pbts-opening-week-2023-24-nba-power-rankings

it feels kinda like the celtics have played this entire game without a point guard

holiday has looked lost

phew

knicks could miss celtics looked confused ill take the win

celtics have a lot of guys who can do a lot of things they should be able to get a lot of easy shots just need to find them, obvs take a min for them to figure it out

The Boston Celtics are 1-0. pic.twitter.com/ojy1wRajsd
