10-18-2022: Sixers @ Celtics

[RSN Diaspora]

Good morning from outside RSN Diaspora World Headquarters:



We have some unfinised business to attend to after the way last season ended. I'd say this is an Eastern Conference title defense, but we don't hang banners for second place. This year, we get over the hump and win the whole fuckin' thing.

Joe hasn't announced his starting five yet, but I expect to see Tatum, Brown, White, Horford, and Smart at tip off. With Time Lord out several more weeks, I'm curious to see how they manage Horford's load in the opening months.

7:30 tip, TNT, Celts currently at -2.

WIN.

As glorious as last season was overall, can a mod please start 2022-23 Game Threads?

 

[bigq]

LFG!!!

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Looking forward to another year of game threading with you all.

Sink the Sixers!

Seconds and triples the "no banners for second place".

But I must ask: would you take a Celt's loss TODAY for MFY loss TODAY.
That is: take a loss OF THIS GAME to guarantee that YED is today?

No. Baseball season ended for me after the Sox' 162nd game. We came agonizingly close to a championship last year, and I want one this year. More wins means more chances at home court.

Looking forward to another season of mature, adult discourse with the fine people of the Port Cellar.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Let's do this.

It's time. I want Jaylen to average 35ppg and Tatum to do, well, everything.

As much as I'd hate to see it, as a fan that watches every minute of every game, I'd have no problem if the C's go full load management this year, nobody playing over 60-65 games, get into the playoffs as a top 5 seed, and get into them fucking healthy.

More wins also means more flexibility for load management. This season will be a campaign.

Win.

 

[Ale Xander]

Win it for William Felton Russell

Pound Philly

 

[timelysarcasm]

So excited for the start of this season! Looking forward to Brogdon's contributions and continued improvement from the core.

Get it get it!

 

[The Mort Report]

Did anyone catch what TNT did during their pregame show for Russell? They spent almost 45 minutes on him, including a 30 minute piece with a ton of interviews, it was amazing and extremely powerful, and had a bunch of incredible small stories I've never heard, and I'm sure most haven't. Dusted up a bunch of times as well. I'm sure its going to end up all over the internet, so if you missed it I highly recommend finding it

edit:The piece was called "Bill Russell Answer the Call"

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Feeling a bit pessimistic about tonight. C's by only 33.

Damn. I whiffed on that. If anybody comes across a YouTube link, please post. Thanks.

[osori]

Banner 18.

One step at a time.

I generally like Aloe Blacc, but this…wasn’t great.

Many thanks.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

LFG

 

[Ale Xander]

Ian Eagle? Is this March?

I guessno Breen is good news

It was awful, whatever. Let’s hoop.

 

[luckiestman]

These jerseys are sick minus the disastrous “vista print”

 

[Imbricus]

This will be a tough game. Step up, guys!

 

[Ale Xander]

Tatuuuuuuuum

 

[McBride11]

That 6 in the paint is great

 

[Ale Xander]

Will trade 3’s with Embiid all day

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

City Connect jerseys look sweet

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Just me or is TNT’s crowd audio not synced with the announcing audio?

 

[McBride11]

Harris gets the foul when Embiid and Tucker hit him? Did I miss hear something

 

[Deathofthebambino]

GET THAT SHIT OUT TYRESE

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Clamps

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Announcing audio is behind for me. I heard them say tatums 3 was good before i saw it

 

[Dollar]

Is anyone else getting the audio about a half second earlier than the video? Either that or Ian Eagle is good at predicting which shots will go in.

edit: okay not just me. Anyone else on YouTube TV?

 

[RSN Diaspora]

What a block by Tatum

 

[Ale Xander]

Yes

Yeah me too (on youtube tv). To say it's distracting would be an understatement.

 

[Ale Xander]

1/4 second but this is annoying

Had the same thing with Smart’s steal.

 

[McBride11]

Ok where I just sign up for Tatum MVP and Smart DPOY repeat.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Yea I’m gonna have to mute if it doesn’t get fixed soon

 

[McBride11]

Embiid shoved brown over on the rebound? Wtf
