I wonder if we'll be allowed to play non NY teams in the regular season.

I believe so. There was an airport sighting, but I can't find the link.

Anyway, let's clean up the preseason and finish with the number 1 seed in the East with a win over these dirtbags.

Agreed. 2nd Unit should only play to the point that the game is a runaway.
Put in the 3rd & Red Claws Units.

Read on Twitter

Even Gorman's assuming Green is in. He needs to shoot better when the games start to count if that's what he was brought in for. Him, Brown, and Smart have been throwing bricks from 3 in preseason.

Keep moving the basketball and cut down on the turnovers and the Celtics should win. Honestly win or lose doesn't really matter here, this is a showcase game for players 6-20 on this roster. I'm in agreement with a poster above, starters shouldn't even play in this one. They are ready

Breaking: RJ hunter falls out if bounds onto derrick rose after being fouled by some italian guy. Rose out for season.

Dude, he has 10 years of shooting and has a 36% rate from 3. He doesn't need to prove it in the preseason.

Young and RJ Hunter both are unlikely to ever have the success he's had in the league. It's not easy. He even had one year of good starter player in PHNX.

CBS NBA writers are awful. Questioning Crowder and Bradley value on the open market because they didn't get big offers in they're last free agency.
