prediction: if the Celtics continue to win games by 70 bajillion they will start to earn the sort of attention they might enjoy.

Speaking of the tournament, may not be a popular opinion but I love our court design and am looking forward to seeing it in games

DOUBLE BLESSING... First for D White and family. Second, let someone else NOT in the rotation get a good chance to play. May not happen but I would Love to see what a full game of Stevens can do as a STARTER. Sliding Brown to a 2 guard Tatum/Stevens at forward. Keep Hauser and PP coming in off the bench.

Yes I know Stevens is behind some on the depth chart, but his fit with the starters would be really good IMO.

BTW I think Brissett has the worst shot of anyone on our team outside of Kornet and Queta.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I like it. I’m a little surprised we didn’t see more of him in pre-season. Other than that Miami game, he’s probably looked a bit better than Oshae

You get two shots to see the new floor. Next Friday (11/10 v. Brooklyn) and Tuesday (11/28 v. Chicago). I think there's special City Edition uniforms for the occasion as well.

White needs to keep his playing streak intact. I think the last time he missed a game was game 2 of the 22' ECF for the birth of his first kid lol. That's 113 games in a row.

This will be a good test. The Nets switch a lot, this might be a big KP game

If Mrs. White gives birth at Weill Cornell then D White could conceivably play a quarter and make it back to the hospital in 20 minutes by Uber.

Might be the only team that on paper has the personnel to defend our starting guards and star wing duo. But then they don't have anyone to cover KP (or Kornet for that matter.) Claxton is still OUT. Cam Johnson too. Dinwiddie is questionable. Don't know who their backup big is. Jason Collins? Kenyon Martin?

This is the 2nd night of B2B for them travelling 20,000 miles from Chicago while Cs have 2-day rest. We catch a break again. Just don't let Cam Thomas break Wilt's scoring record and we'll be fine.

Suns can't guard your Mother.
They're not beating the Celtics.

A much less talented Bruins team is 9-0-1,
so no excuse for the Celtics not to go 15-0 at least... make it 20 with a bullet!
