Thursday 10/24 NBA Game Thread

Which Washington team plays the Celtics closer: wizards or generals

[Joshyjess]

Letdown game for the celtics?!

yeah, they'll probably only hit about 20 threes today.

I always remember when the back to back champion Heat lost their 2nd game of the 2013-2014 season against the 76ers, who were in their first season of their tanking!..It was such a major upset at that time!

Definitely! Every game is a potential loss, regardless of who they are playing against. As hot as they were shooting the last game, they could go ice cold this game. Even the worst NBA teams are still full of NBA level players, and each of them got to this point by being the best of the best at every level they've played in. Taking any team for granted can easily bite you in the butt.
Hopefully Mazulla will have the guys pumped up and aware of this.
I really don't think this is a game Boston will lose, but hey, you never know.

If the Celtics are playing anything similar to what they looked like on opening night, we might have our first 50 point beatdown of the season. More likely tho we will see a huge lead and then a lot of Sam Hauser in the second half.

Sam might miss the game…load management. Jordan Walsh watch is on!!!

Was hoping for a full strength OKC vs DEN matchup, Hartenstein being out kinda sucks, they need him vs Jokic

[Chuck Everett]

I am intrigued for season two of Lively and how Klay/Grimes/Naji look playing off of Luka and Kyrie. I am saying by year 4, Lively will be an all-NBA candidate.

I am hoping to see a bit of Stephon Castle in between the Celtics Wiz game

I think he is a legit ROTY candidate

Haus3r is out. Back issue.

Im still not expecting much of the Spurs this season, but i hope it's a good one

He looked great year 1. Also interested to see how he has progressed.

Did Chuck really ask Reggie if the Spurs are a playoff team this year???

[Chuck Everett]

NBA games never start on time.

[SK21209]

Still dont understand why the Celtics ever wear anything besides their classic greens and whites.

[Chuck Everett]

Poole looks a lot better tonight.

[BigGargamel]

Oh man. The Celtics announcers were already bad. Now that they've won a championship they're insufferable. They've dumped on the Wizards, their arena and their fans like 10 times already.

[chilluminati]

It's a wemby night!

[Mauro Pedrosa]

Jordan Poole revenge season

[Chuck Everett]

I haven't watched TNT's pre and post-game so far. Hoping to keep it up all season. I'm glad they'll be good.

[AFM]

Michael "Jordan" Poole

[Chuck Everett]

Gotta admit, the Wiz should probably keep starting Carrington this season. Brogdon needs to deal with the bench since he's a glass man.

[Homer38]

Poole is just red hot....
