Cavs don't know what they have coming for them. Celtics looking to increase their winning streak!

October 29 is a Wednesday, since the NBA uses the Gregorian calendar.

CAVS frontcourt is our biggest test yet.
Mobley and Jarrett Allen are both top 30 players this early season

Can Queta + Garza + Tillman + Boucher hold their own against two AllStar big man?
Tune in tomorrow night to find out, lol

We need another Big, preferably Starter quality.

Idk but I doubt Boucher starts..he's come off the bench in all 4 of our games so far - averaging just 11 MPG..he's hit 0 threes so far.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Who will deal with Donovan Mitchell? Mobley and Allen are formidable, but Mitchell is the one with the ball in his hands.

Or Minott. Maybe a tag team would work with Garland out until November.

So Minott sticks as our Starting PF?

I think Joe's not going with a fixed starting unit.

As long as guys like Mynot and Hugo are getting significant minutes, it doesn't matter who starts.

Mynot and Hugo makes the Cs faster and more athletic.
Not to mention the better defense.

Beating Cleveland would be great.
But for that to happen, White and PP must shoot better from 3pt land.

idk..the first 4 games it's been JB, white, pritchard and queta starting all 4 of them.

The 5th spot - 2 starts for Hauser, 1 for Hugo and 1 for Minott.

Not sure what to expect for that 5th spot in the next game..

I hope… given the matchup here I think Boucher gets more minutes than in previous games but I would start Minott.
