I will never understand the people who can’t enjoy the ride. That’s coming from someone who’s posted here many times that this team will be judged on the playoffs.

But damn, the regular season is mostly awesome.

Feel like giving the VC & CP to Porzingis and DWhite for getting rest before Friday. I'll go Jrue for VC and PP for CP (with a +17). Everyone played well. JT & JB were their normal excellent selves. Look forward to Friday. Bring on the Nuggets!!!

I'll take 3-2 and hope for more.

Only 6 Celtics teams had a better record. Only 3 Celtics teams had a better point differential after 41 games.


So 32-9 is nothing all that special by Celtics standards? :)

Feel like a game like this is one where the VC has to go to "team".

Everyone chipped in. It's not like we had just 1 or 2 guys who dominated. Ball movement was good. Good team win. But also not one to get too excited about since Spurs are a bad team.

But good to go 20-0 at home and happy for Walsh that he finally got into a game.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

This was a light practice. The Spurs aren't even a NBA team. Some of their players have no business being on a NBA roster. Sohan and Tre Jones are pitiful. Keldon Johnson is one of the most inefficient and low iq players in the NBA.

The 20-0 home start is.

Just not by league history standards.

I'm Shak-ing it. Team. As in, team just too good even missing 2 guys.
Loved Brissett challenging Wemby.
Jrue should shoot like that from 3 every game. Somebody tell him. He'd be really good that way.

EDIT: Fun note. Without the dash, Shak-ing it is just shaking it. Which isn't what I was doing at all.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Yeah I get people’s angst because we probably should have had a chip in the last two seasons.

But if you can’t enjoy the regular season when your team is contending then I don’t get it.

Some of my favourite recent Celtics memories are from regular season games.

Despite some of the negativity on here this season has been fun. Last time I remember it being like this was the 2010-11 start when we had Shaq.

By this stage last season there were some concerning performances and trends starting to show themselves.
