GT: Celtics Vs Knicks 10/20/21 7:30 PM

[F N 11]

All the excitement for the season building to this point at the first game, opening night at home against rival Boston seems like it's ripe for a major letdown. I don't want to predict any doom from one game but the meltdown with fans from a bad looking loss here may leave emotional scars considering the amount of hype people have for the team.

Ok but imagine the level of euphoria if we win

let's put all of that temper your expectations advice in the garbage where it belongs. Get as hyped as you want or just take up knitting as a hobby

Just make their ISO's tough and we good. They shooting more 3's and Jaylen being back could slow up their chemistry. Should be a good one.

I agree, we went 4-0 in the preseason and will go 82-0 in the regular season and 16-0 in the playoffs

on the road to 102-0!!!!

[Deeeez Knicks]

It makes sense for them to match up with Randle, but I am sure they will use a bunch of small ball lineups too

swipe right on the post

jokes aside this is great for us. we can hide fournier on grant williams. i want randle on tatum and rj guarding brown

Yea, I saw that

But they probably dont want Tatum on Randle and vice versa for the entire game. The Celtics will probably be forced to go small a lit so we will probably see those matchups eventually.

At least to start, the Knicks should be helping a lot and doubling Tatum every time off Grant Williams anyway.

boston is starting grant williams aka lance thomas 2.0. we are winning this game. terrible person doubting my powers!!

melo before the first game:





melo when we get blown out in the first game:

and we all know he is going out in his tatum jersey to celebrate boston's win tonight by getting a XXXXXL oreo blizzard.

[Deeeez Knicks]

LORD!!! The confusion with dem Island boyz is real.

Man... is this going to be Knicks RealGM game thread song?!

between melo making the opening day gamethread and this f'ing song our season is ruined

Lock Grant Williams in for the scrub of the night when he puts up 30/10 after the slander

We should make it so that if we lose, melo's banned from making game threads until next season

[Deeeez Knicks]

That is kind of a whack starting lineup for the Celtics though

i lead the knicks to an undefeated pre season, first playoff win in 7 years and this is how you terrible people treat me!!!!! i hope greenarrow makes the next game thread if i lose

I could see Obi having a good year. It's just a question of whether he has more good than bad, but you feel like he's the guy who will change the most this season. It's not going to be an incomplete like last year. Things are about to happen, good or bad, with Obi, we're about to get a lot more data on him.

I’m keeping my eye on Kenna’s defense tonight. Schroder is going to toast him.

Yeah, if it's straight up a liability then we have a problem.

Looks like Schroder isn’t starting. Is he hurt? So I guess Marcus Smart at PG? Kemba is going be like a fly on Smart’s back. lol

One little thing I've noticed with Obi that could be big is he has, perhaps, extraordinary hands. There have been flashes of hands. It's a big deal. It's part of why Zion is so adept. May also be something that holds back Mitch.

The Knicks promo pic of Obi palming the ball gave me chills

In my dream I saw the box score Knicks were 151 and Celtics were like 143

Nobody is putting up close to that with our defense lol

[Reign23]

can this start already?
