How many games did you watch this season?

I wonder how many games did you watch this season?

With this years season and growth of streaming of the games (thanks streamers) I finally got opportunities to watch almost all of Celtics games.

Call me crazy, but I watched 80 games this season (79 live and 1 replayed). I missed January 2th home game with Wizards and April 3th home game with Atlanta.

When I think back I can not believe I watched 80 games, and being in Europe the games started at 1am (home games) and around 3.30am when playing West.

I have seen this team developed, going through great stretches and a few bad games. The one thing Im proud is our bench, we have a great bench now Marbury,House,Allen,Powe,Baby and despite the possible KG playoff absence I think our system is so good that Powe and Baby will be enough for another finals appearance. No disrespect to Cleveland but even without KG I still think we are a better team.

I missed only a handful, due to family commitments or just flat out being too tired and needing to sleep for work the next day. I'd say I watched 70-75 games...

I watched somwhere in the upper 70's, which has been the same for me for about the last 8 years. Props to you for seeing all the games that crazily late Klemen, not sure I could pull that off and I consider myself a die-hard fan. I don't miss any of the west coast games, but if they were at 1 am I'm sure I'd miss plenty.

I'm still a believer, though I hope KG watches from the sidelines and gets everyone pumped instead of from the locker room. Either way though, it ain't over til it's over.

I would say I watched about 75 games this year and about 12-13 in person. Slightly less than last year.

More than 70 easily. And some of them were Internet streams from overseas. If you think Cavs or Raptors announcers are bad, try listening to announcers speaking Chinese or Turkish (when you don't understand either).

Sure beats the good old days growing up as a kid in Canada, getting 1 or 2 games a year before the finals. I always used to cheer the end of the NFL season, at least there was a chance the Celtics might be televised Sunday afternoon once football was over.

82 Celtics games + maybe 50 Cavs games and then another 50 or so random games.

Last year I watched 80 Celtics games. I only missed the back-to-back losses to Washington.

82 and I watched them all live on Tv or in person. Kind of ridiculous, but my entire daily schedule functions around the C's

75 ish. I had to miss a few Friday games because I had class.

MyInsatiableOne · Post #15 » by **MyInsatiableOne** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 6:33 pm

Most of the ones I missed were either when I was grieving over my grandfather's death in January or some of the really late mid-week West Coast games...I need to get up at 5am for work so there's no way I can stay up till 1-2am watching a game!!

I live in Panama City, Panama Republic, I'm panamenian. I watched all the games broadcast on Panama TV, not many, the total was 15. But I went from Panama to Boston in January to watch two games (Houston and Toronto). Neither the cold weather stop my love for the Celtics!!!

Over 90 games. All 82 regular season games, plus the 8 preseason games. I also watched 2 of the D-League games with Giddens and Walker. I saw two live games. One was the Celtics vs Clippers in L.A. and a D-League game in Anaheim, CA where Walker and Giddens plays. I watched most of the games on DVR, however.
