I think they just decided to let him stay home and not make the trip. He;'s got a newborn baby at home. Some folks in the media commented how he made the trip all the way to Abu Dhabi, so that whole time he was away from his newborn baby.

Usually if a guy has a baby, they miss a game or 2. He has played in all the preseason games until tonight..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

5 Pre-season Games is way too little.
They should have like 12. Evaluate the Fringe Players, and have the Regulars avoid Injuries later.

Hope we don't see this lineup in the regular season ever. Horford stanking to high heavens hasn't helped.

Just a rough game tonight, good to get it out of their system before the season starts. I bet they still win in the end too!

That's a nice gesture by the team. Except for the part where Hauser came with them on the trip. Or at least he boarded the plane.

Tatum's 3 is just locked in right now. Can we start the season please?

Raps doing that Pacers and OKC thing where they don't stop moving. Usually gives us fits.

Starters ineffectual.

Celtics overwhelmed by the Grady Train.

Put in the bench, Kornet and PP or all is lost.

I'm gonna say this now and i'm gonna say throughout this season..

Tatum could be an m v p but will never win because he just takes too many ill advised shots.

Everybody does but he does it way too often in my opinion.

That's the only weakness of this Celtic defense.

You try to ISO the Cs, like what the Mavs did in the finals, it will not end well for the opposing team.

Trade Tatum to get a runningmate for kornet and pp 8-)
