The Expected and the Unexpected

[CletusCooper]

Watch the Thunder as the season develops

I actually did have a chance to watch your team last night against the Nuggets and I was impressed. One team looked old and slow and the other young and fast

 

[CletusCooper]

The expected continues as does the unexpected

He's a huge homer. Boston is champions until they are not. OKC is just a young team that lost to a better Dallas team last year. The same thing will happen again unless they avoid them like they want to

OKC is the 1 team that should be scary to Celtic fans.

They got a lot better. Not just because of the players they acquired, but because they are a young team whose stars are improving.

OKC is the only team that has a higher ceiling than the Celtics IMO.

Let's hope that is incorrect. In my opinion the Tics are deeper

The difference was that one coach had a fresh perspective and a fresh gameplan while the other coach was running the same tired shit from 2019...

Nah, the difference was that 1 team is young and fast, the other is not.

I didn't watch the whole game, but from what I saw of it, the Nugs looked like they were trying to play the Thunders style. That's not going to work because the Nugs aren't young and fast.

They can beat the Thunder by playing physical basketball and slowing the pace.

Slowing the pace against the Thunder is easier said than done.

Maybe. But it's the only chance the Nugs have. They sure as heck can't run with them.

The Nuggets couldn’t beat the Thunder last season, they are way overmatched this season.

League is weird.

The Lakers were able to beat the Thunder last year by slowing the pace and being physical with them...but they couldn't beat the Nuggets...who couldn't beat the Thunder. lol

 

[Wamu]

And it’s one game lol. Celtics fans better hope they get another this year, someone is coming. <--

Well it ain't the Lakers.

Gimme five!

 

[Wamu]

Well, we certainly aren't worried about OKC. They come to the Gahden and they will get crushed.

Slow down there. OKC had a damn good season last year and got better in the off season. They're a scary good team.

Yeah, I watched them blow away Denver in Denver the other night. That skinny, 8-foot-tall white dude is really good

Hope someone in the East can change the Celtics vs. the West conversation, at least for awhile.

I don't see it. The good teams other than the Celtics are in the West. Look at the Warriors even, They've won their games by 40 points so far
