Until a 2021-22 game thread forum is launched, this is probably the best place for this.

 

[Ale Xander]

Boo ya

 

[cardiacs]

Having Jaylen back for the opener would be huge!

 

[bigq]

Fired up for the start of the season. Kneuter Kemba and the Knicks . Let's gooo!!!

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Very happy to watch another season of Celtics basketball with the fine folks of the Port Cellar.

53-29. Banner 18 raised October ‘22.

 

[JCizzle]

Grant Williams starting the opener has already put a damper on the season lol

 

[radsoxfan]

Yikes….. If my calculations are correct, starting Grant means he’s guaranteed to play non-garbage time minutes.

Rough start for the Ime era, but on the bright side, can only improve from here!

Grant Williams starting? Urghhh. Hopefully as a means to increase his value some for a trade deadline move.

I keep forgetting Kemba is on the Knicks (as is Fournier). More storylines to this opener.

Damn it I was out yesterday with a migraine it sucks.

I can’t believe the Knicks are expected to be good and that is their starting backcourt. I’ve seen that movie before.

 

[JCizzle]

Greeny is an awful host. ESPN hitching their wagon to this guy never ceases to amaze me.

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

New season, let's goooooooooooo!

 

[Nomar813]

Shortest offseason ever, still too long to wait.

 

[ggreene]

Mike Breen, the vanilla milk toast of announcers. God he is awful.

 

[benhogan]

they better target Kemba relentlessly

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I need something good from the C's tonight to wash away that Sox disaster.

 

[Imbricus]

I have a bad feeling that Kemba or Fournier is going to go 7 for 9 from 3 ... so we might need the offense to step up.

 

[128]

Enough of this fucking pregame stuff.

 

[MJM2344]

Nice 7:48 tip off?

 

[kfoss99]

Google lied about that 7:30 start time.

 

[bigq]

PP is going to be a masked assassin.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I just can't with Grant Williams. I CANNOT

 

[JCizzle]

Great start, Grant!

 

[128]

Patented slow start for the C's.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

they better target Kemba relentlessly

Kemba targeting GW relentlessly.

 

[kfoss99]

I have high hopes for Nesmith this year.

Should be more fun watching this team than last year's.

 

[bigq]

Granite hands.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

I feel like Grant isn't the best guy to guard Kemba.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Grant is still Grant. Unfortunately.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

I think every point the Knicks have scored so far has been on Grant, somehow?

 

[Fishy1]

Nice passing from Tatum to start, at least.

 

[JCizzle]

Brad is up in a box laughing his ass off at this start. Long two. Pass through Grant's hands. Missed Smart three. We've seen this before.

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Can someone explain how grant is an NBA starter?

 

[Imbricus]

Boy, Grant looks slow.

 

[teddykgb]

We know their backcourt stinks defensively because it used to be our backcourt. Just force them to switch Kemba on Tatum and feast. It’s what everyone did to us

 

[tbb345]

For the love of God please trade Grant Williams. Get back a fucking bag of basketballs and you’ve won the trade

 

[OnWisc]

Yeah, you can’t do that.

 

[128]

Is Kemba playing on the second night of back-to-backs this season?

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Jaylen looking good at least.

 

[OnWisc]

That seemed a little aggressive.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

I don’t know. That looked like an upfake Grant totally bit on.

 

[bigq]

JAYL3N

 

[Fishy1]

Jaylen is so good in transition

 

[luqin]

kemba just took 3 hops and 5 steps without a travel call

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I was hoping Fournier would start his Knicks career like 0-50 like he did with Boston.

Jaylen Brown is a man possessed.

 

[128]

Jaylen!

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

kemba just took 3 hops and 5 steps without a travel call

I thought I hallucinated that.

 

[Fishy1]

Jaylen... Jesus Christ
