Yep. I think Vonleh might actually get some real minutes, though.

They need some early on.

With bob out and kornet has issues too.

They’re gonna need blake and Vonleh to play way more than they should for a contender

Looks like Time Lord is out for a little longer than we hoped:


"Boston Celtics big man received a PRP injection in his knee Monday to promote healing after undergoing arthroscopic surgery in late September, The Athletic's Shams Charania reported Tuesday.

According to Charania, the current plan is to have Williams return "at some point in the second half of the season."

"I'm told his hope is sometime in December or January, but it could even be later than that," Charania said on FanDuel TV's "Run It Back" show.

Kornet is gonna get a lot of time to prove he’s an nba player….

Vonleh too even though he’s a weird fit with no shot blocking skills..:somehow

It's never good when a player gets a 2nd surgery on the same body part in a year.

Nice win to start the season. Seemed like the Celtics could have won by even more... they were getting open 3's at will against a 76ers defense that definitely has holes.

I really liked what Brogdon brought to the game... he'll be a key pick up.

Finally, always fun to beat floppin' ass Embiid... dude is the biggest guy on the court by far, yet he flail falls every other possession. :tsk:

Marcus Smart is a cvnt. Embiid should have broken his arm last night.

Marcus also drew a foul against Embiid on a later possession... 2 master actors/agitators going at it. :D

Being scrappy is what makes Smart a starter. Embid tho is a head case He could be such a better player and maybe someday win a ring but not with that attitude.

How much better could he be? Dude has been outstanding and has improved greatly. He’s one of the best two way players in the league.

Build a team that can win
He’s a GM? He manages the cap? Bwahahaha! Mass holes need to stick to baseball. It’s the only sport they can discuss in an intelligent way. Celtics fans are smelling themselves because Middleton got hurt and they got to lose to the Warriors. Hilarious.

The greats make others around them better. I like Embids offense. A lot. But he is a head case. Just is
