Celtics '24'25 - REIGNING NBA CHAMPIONS

[Gman]

SoS hasn't been the best... but we're now 5-1 on the road, even though we've been missing some key guys.

Tatum is playing lights out.

And the bench continues to develop. This is far far better team than the 08 team

 

[The Q]

Not happy so far

Joe looks like he’s on the doc rivers track

No…it’s not

That could could’ve won like 77 games if it wanted to

Uh... we're 10-3... 7-1 on the road.

What were your expectations?

how do you mean?

I mean, all there is to this point?

All seriousness, the Cs looking like they will be mostly healthy Tuesday?

Minus zinger unless I missed something

He’s the swing piece

Play 5 out ball with him

He definitely makes a difference as Horford not what he once was. I'm just hoping Wade or Okoro can go to help out with your 3s.

We'll see... there's always the chance that a regular rotation guy gets rested... for instance, Jrue Holiday missed the last game with some type of minor injury that likely wouldn't have kept him out if it were the postseason.

Wade is out, which sucks, he is a good versatile piece defensively. Levert, Merrill, Okoro all questionable. If they don’t have all 3 it is unlikely the Cavs will win.

Beat them last year without Mitchell and others though Cs might have taken lightly which wont happen at 15-0 and wanting to give us 1st loss no matter who plays.

Agree Wade is a guy we could really have used in this one. Those 3 out AND wade? No doubt that would be rough as with no Strus pretty much all our SGs not named Mitchell.

I never liked that trade

And shai was such a Danny pick.

Celtics would’ve taken him with that pick

They absolutely still should’ve traded IT though

They weren’t ready to be a contender and needed the extra picks to make the big trade Danny never made after kyrie anyway

With Porzingis injured and Horford being ancient of days... it's doubtful that these C's are gonna take down the wins in a season record.

Even when Zinger returns... Boston is likely to be super careful with him before the playoffs.

Porzy back tonite gents !

 

[Wamu]

Porzy back tonite gents !

He's taken enough games off. Make him play 48 minutes! Oh wait he ain't AIE- always injured embiid.

Damn glad he's back. Not too many minutes tonight though.

They should be ultra-conservative with him.

15 min limit IMO

I would trade Embid in a second

He's a great player when healthy. But he's never healthy. This is year # 11 for him. And has never played 70 games in a season.
