10/25: Celtics@Knicks

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Who's the best shooter on the Cs?

 

[The Mort Report]

Joe still challenge challenged.

In fairness to Joe on one like that he's going off what a coach is telling him they saw on a replay

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

I guess one call-out is any TNT/ESPN/ABC game isn't on league pass. Don't know how many of those the Celtics have but I'm guessing a lot.

 

[radsoxfan]

It's a good thing Jaylen got his $.

He would have been pretty sad being the 4th best player on this team.

Maybe he still is...

 

[SoFloSoxFan]

So after one quarter of the season: can we just rest Porzingis for a while, say until March?

Wow the starters are just SO good. anything to have them all 100% healthy in the playoffs.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Luke checks in and gets cooked.

Looks like ~24.

[Auger34]

This is a….interesting line-up out there.

It makes very little sense

 

[Just a bit outside]

Nice move. I think I want DWhite with the ball instead of PP out top.

 

[Pilgrim]

Its crazy how much it will unlock the offense just having a 7 fter who needs to be guarded at the 3 point line

 

[benhogan]

Luke needs to be on a very short leash this year

 

[Just a bit outside]

If that is a foul every pick is a foul.

 

[The Mort Report]

I don't like the choice of if only one Allstar is on the floor of the 4 the last one it should be is JB

 

[Auger34]

Luke needs to be on a very short leash this year

Agreed.

I dont think there’s any reason for Horford and Kornet to be playing together, especially when the other team isn’t even playing 2 bigs

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

One guess what point of emphasis is for the officials in this contest

 

[Ale Xander]

Kite needs to do better

 

[Ale Xander]

LURCH!

 

[Ed Hillel]

What is this lineup?

 

[Auger34]

What is this lineup?

Not good

 

[Devizier]

This team is ridiculous, even when they’re bad they’re good.

 

[luckiestman]

Regular league pass streaming is only $100 per season, the only thing the $150 package gets you is a video feed from the arena during commercials, I think.

good job by you, I was planning to stream but for $100 I added the season to YTTV. I’ve had the app for years but got sick of it. Thru YTTV should be good though.

 

[slamminsammya]

holiday man. perfect fit

 

[benhogan]

It's nice not to be held hostage when JB goes quiet

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

2nd unit looking a little rough

 

[ifmanis5]

I need a little shot of Queta. As a treat.

 

[slamminsammya]

I need a little shot of Queta. As a treat.

once it's a 25 point game in the fourth

 

[Ed Hillel]

kornet can’t be it off the bench.

 

[Imbricus]

kornet can’t be it off the bench.

Yeah, I'm ready for the post-Kornet era.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Tatum is a motormouth! Who knew?

 

[Auger34]

I don't like the choice of if only one Allstar is on the floor of the 4 the last one it should be is JB

I don’t like that 4 being out there with anyone.

EDIT: that 4 being Kornet, Horford, Hauser and Pritchard

 

[slamminsammya]

I like Kornet y'all are overreacting

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

It's amazing how Jrue just shows up in lanes and disrupts a play but is still able to get back to his man. It's almost like he's two guys out there.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

There is a reason Kornet was playing int he g league for a while there. Do not get Brad's obsession with him.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Need some penetration

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Kornet and KP together. That's unexpected.

 

[Auger34]

I like Kornet y'all are overreacting

I do think that he fails the eye test so miserably that it colors people’s views.

However, I really don’t like him out there with one of Horford or Porzingis. At all

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I like Kornet y'all are overreacting

This. I was just joking because he actually contested the Barrett take pretty well. This forum expects perfect execution. Its just the way it is. Some players cannot make a single mistake

 

[128]

Quickley loves playing Boston.

 

[slamminsammya]

I do think that he fails the eye test so miserably that it colors people’s views.

I agree double bigs with him is a lil crazy

 

[Just a bit outside]

Ball not moving much right now.

 

[ifmanis5]

Quickley lights us up for some reason.
Nice box out, Kornet.

 

[Ed Hillel]

White was cherry picking

 

[radsoxfan]

Lol poor Kornet.

He's a funny guy and good personality, but man is he bad at basketball.

He needs to be DEEEEEEP bench on a decent team. He's about 2 levels too high right now.

 

[Auger34]

I agree double bigs with him is a lil crazy

I’ll go farther than that and say it’s really stupid.

It’s one thing to play double bigs because you have the personnel and your bigs need minutes. It’s another to just shoehorn Kornet in for no reason at all

 

[luckiestman]

There is a reason Kornet was playing int he g league for a while there. Do not get Brad's obsession with him.

He is just eating minutes, why care? If it wasn’t him it would be someone else you don’t like.

 

[slamminsammya]

He needs to be DEEEEEEP bench on a decent team. He's about 2 levels too high right now.

your binky Darko has him as a (gasp) positive player.

 

[Devizier]

I don’t mind coach Joe experimenting with lineups. Now is the time to do it.

 

[radsoxfan]

It’s one thing to play double bigs because you have the personnel and your bigs need minutes. It’s another to just shoehorn Kornet in for no reason at all

Doc mocked it right away.

Though admittedly, that might actually be a point in favor of that strange lineup.

 

[slamminsammya]

i am just shocked we are seeing sweeping overreactions about players in the team on opening night. in the game thread no less

 

[OnWisc]

Kraft there to see some offense.
