I was looking at tickets for this pregame, earlier in the day, lots of good-not-great seats were ask-price $300-400 a piece. Imagine spending a grand for two to go to a Saturday night game (albeit a B2B) and it's over in ten minutes and your sitting in your seat, watching 2 hours of garbage time and drinking a $20 beer, lol ... that would suck!

Boy, talk about throwing Walsh to the wolves...his career might be over now.

Still gotta play the 4th.
Get the Deep Bench in there.

Teams have been down 30 and come back to win in the fourth quarter alone, this is doable!

Oof. You dodged a big time bullet. It would have truly sucked.

I was just looking out of curiosity, I live in Texas. This is the hypothetical "me" not the actual me, lol

Still have to fill his spot. Probably someone making the same or more.

Game over, Scalabrine is right. Refs calling catch up fouls now for the Celtics so it doesn’t look so bad

Size making the Cs overcompensate on defense.
That's why Houston is getting so many open looks.

Credit to Houston, they're making the shots.

Rackets won’t be having such a big smile when we face them on a more even playing level.

Red2 · Post #215 » by **Red2** » Sun Nov 2, 2025 2:00 am

I guarantee that houston wont shoot this well in the next game. Just ridiculous 3 point shooting tonight

Fierce1 · Post #216 » by **Fierce1** » Sun Nov 2, 2025 2:00 am

This is why Simons' size is not a good fit for the Cs.

Brad needs to trade Simons for another player with a lower salary and with more size.

Red2 · Post #217 » by **Red2** » Sun Nov 2, 2025 2:01 am

Brad’s obsession with wings and his failure to draft bigs has come home to roost

I have asked the same question. A guard that can't dribble or shoot. Yuk. Hal says Walsh is a PF, but the Celtics website lists Walsh as a guard. There are some here who feel they know better than Brad Stevens.

Nice by Joe playing DWhite 19 minutes, Brown 22 minutes and Queta 15 minutes. This is a schedule loss and the games keep coming every other night

He's playing PF tonight. And likely playing in Maine's 1st game.
