Rough start to the season.
Players nervous about incoming missiles.
Brown and Tatum seem to have spent the off season partying.
Kornet two feet from the hoop,
passes it out,
get a half-hook.
Jokik already 2 fouls,
keeps screaming,
"I will rip your heart out, Tatum."
Tatum's outside shot is very flouncy and wuss boy offense, unappealing.
Put in the bench, Mazzulla,
low low energy this game from the starters.
Nuggets look so much better.

I don't want to overreact but if we lose this game - trade everyone.

Celtics seemed more dialed in.
Even with Everybody having Jet-lag, and Season-lag.

That's an under-reaction from this pathetic crapfest of a team inhaling its own laureates.

Kornet was so bad. We can’t start him at center

Would have better Spacing with Scheierman at 4, Tatum at 5...

White gives the Celtics the lead as Tatum re-embraces his inner 3-pointness.
White has been the best Celtics player on the court.

I’ve seen enough. We’re repeating. Rest the starters already until the playoffs.

A weird choice. I wonder how Al Horford is doing?
He seemed alright, in all the videos.

Maybe one year they'll add a referee or two.

So far, somewhat of a disappointment,
very disjointed performance,
maybe the 120 heat got to them.
How soon can they trade for Kessler?
Scalabrine and Syracuse are just beyond awful compared to past Celtics announcing duos.
Denver just has the Celtics number...
