I can't believe it is actually here. After a short rest, our boys are back on the court tonight for the first time since winning it all. Good times continue....Discuss. Also, if someone wants to do a better game thread, please feel free. I don't know how or have time today :D

I want to see the kids play,Giddens,Walker,BBD,Powe and the second yeard kid pg/sg from USC. What the hell is his name. I can never remember it.

I'm sure it will be sloppy as hell. I just want to see some of the things these ylungs kids are capable of.

Anyone know if I can watch this streaming online? I was able to catch the blazers game on a Sacto website last night.

holy **** is this a gamethread? I can't believe there is actually a gamethread. It's been so long now.

And that kids name is Pruitt.

I want to see Garnett,Pierce,Ray,Perk,House,Cassell in street clothes. If Perk was healthy I'd want him to play though.

But here's the rotation I want to see

Rondo/Pruitt
Tony Allen/Giddens
Walker/Miles
Powe/BBD
O'Bryant... **** I guess we have to play Scal.

Pruitt I don't think is going to get many minutes in the regular season so I'd want to give equal minutes to him and Rondo just to see if Rondo has developed at all.

House,Cassell,Pierce,KG,Ray are all vets that played a lot of games last year. They will find their groove quickly and don't need preseason wearing on their bodies.

Another season of C's Basketball!

The waits finally over and im hyped man. Im really looking forward to Rajon Rondo and Leon Powe and Not to mention the New Guys (Miles,Walker,Giddens ect.). This should be a fun game to watch since Philly has plenty of young talent and we get to see Elton Brand play some minutes.

I say Celtics win this 111-108 thanks to a Game Winning 3 from the main man himself

It is amazing how far we've come and how pysched I am for a pre-season game.

1. We are the champions.

2. Is Pruitt a player? It is time.

3. How good is Tony? Miles? POB?

4. Can you believe the buzz around Walker?

5. And of course how is the Powe / Baby thing going?

6. We also have a first round pick with a chip on his shoulder.

7. Some of these prosepcts are being marketed. Which ones?

A meaningless pre-season game that I want to tape, so I can review in light of your analysis. How far we've come?

"A personal matter will keep coach Doc Rivers from attending Boston's preseason game against Philadelphia on Wednesday night.

Assistant coaches Tom Thibodeau and Armond Hill will run the defending NBA champions in Rivers' absence."

Hey Guys! Go C's!! I am looking forward to seeing the young guys tonight. I hope Gabe Pruitt gets a good amount of minutes. Hopefully we can play solid overall and come away with a W!
