Season Opener – Celtics @ Knicks – 7:30PM, Wed, Oct. 20, 2021

I would be shocked If Tatum doesn't start out cooking. What I really want to see if Tatum and Brown make that extra pass, which they have so far, in the 4th quarter. Will they trust their teammates when it matters most??

[bucknersrevenge]

Jesus. Something ate Perk that looks like Perk.

[31to6]

Simple Fix. Start another Wing.. Tatum goes to the 4.. Tatum and Smart take turns guarding Randle. Randle can't guard Tatum . Romeo or Nesmith Bring much more than Grant.. Trust me..

Ball movement has been really good. Tatum and Nesmith need to see one 3 go in and look out.

I agree Tatum and Nesmith are due to pop a bunch.
In terms of Ime changing the starting lineup halfway through his first ever game as coach, I'mma bet that's a no. But let's see what develops for lineups/coverages as the 2nd half progresses?

Well Horford would have certainly helped with the Randle issue. But stars gonna star, and Randle was a deserved all-nba last year.

I liked the c's offense quite a bit, good passing.

It's not like this is the regular lineup anyway.. so why not??

[Parliament10]

I think that we're doing so-so.
We need to correct these mistakes.

Being down by Injuries is part of the game.
No Excuses. - - - Kick some Bootie!!!!

[Fierce1]

Celts miss Horford's defense on Randle in this game.

[bisme37]

Lol Jaylen brown is in his bag like he's got fries at the bottom. Good one Perk.

They shouldnt make the extra pass unless they are doubled. My problem is Tatum obviously got bigger but is playing the same soft finesse game.

[jmr07019]

Are we sure Brown isn’t the goat?

It would be good to get Randle into some foul trouble.

I don't remember who said it (wasn't perk it was live commentary), but that came from last season, against toronto IIRC.

[Parliament10]

I'd like to see Smart on Randle, more.

[sam_I_am]

Jaylen Brown is 11 pts away for setting record for Celtics for opening game of season. He is already in 3rd place with 33 last year.

Often lost in all the excitement of Jayson Tatum’s potential is what a remarkable player JB is. He just keeps getting better and looks pretty amazing tonight.

Might have best contract in NBA. Untradeable.

Ah yes, the Mark Jones special

[captain green]

Well only one player playing that wasn't on our roster last year. There we got tatum finally in double digits

[Parliament10]

R. Williams. Niiice plays.

[Shak_Celts]

Are we sure Brown isn’t the goat?

i was thinking romeo, but give me a bunch of goats and i'll call it Celtics Farm Sanctuary!

[playa-hater]

I seem to say this every year but what exactly is Grant Williams providing us

[PierceFan4ever]

Cmon Tatum you’re so open how are you missing all of em
