Glad Minott is getting a shot.

Garza at the 5 and Hauser at the 4. They've held up better than expected so far (I'm a couple minutes behind, watching on dvr)

I seriously have no clue.
Maybe Rick Freakin Fox in 1992??

That's gotta be his Staff's influence?

NBC-SB says:
Al Jefferson Started
2004: 1st round, 15th overall pick

nice. I was watching the DET feed but both are available on LP so I switched over to NBC Boston but I missed that part.

I don't even remember big Al starting, but Dick Lipe DID, lol!!

Love that mazulla started Hugo, didn’t expect that. Him and white together will piss other teams off lol

Nice first quarter!
Only 4 assists though, through opening week C's are 30th in the NBA is assists per game, so I hope we can get that ball popping!

Seeming like Brad knocked it out of the park with picking Hugo. Really impressive stuff Hugo's doing.

3rd wave...

HUGO is off to a great start this year, which is VERY exciting!

I am not excited about Baylor being in. Hope he proves me wrong.

BTW, someone said something about Minott possibly being tied to Garza yesterday.....

11-Man Rotation, End is 1st Qtr. Celtics. 33-24.

Good job Scheierman.

Post #97 » by **Shak_Celts** » Sun Oct 26, 2025 8:19 pm

Rico doing solid job!

Simons is less of a PG that I thought. We are kind of light on our roster with ballhandlers who can handle pressure

Bill Lumbergh · Post #99 » by **Bill Lumbergh** » Sun Oct 26, 2025 8:21 pm

I kind of want one of Hugo or Minott in at all times for the D.

IMO that was (is) the lane for Scheierman.
