2017-18 NBA Season

Celts’ depth is so much deeper than the past few years IMO. I think they easily out-class the Cavs in their current form. To think how much deeper/talented they’d be with Hayward (I hope he comes back 100%).

I’m a believer in Boston much moreso than OKC and Houston.

The wheels could be falling off Cleveland this year. LeBron and IT might not jel enough before the playoffs. And that hip could still hamper him. Wade to me is a big playoff X factor if they keep his minutes down.

And of the things the C's have to worry about is the rookie wall with Tatum. If he is running out of gas come play off time that could be trouble for us. However, Marcus Morris has played well and should eat into some of his minutes

Celtics and Warriors would be a compelling series. I dont think we have the horses to win or even push past 6 games yet, but it would be compelling. Our defense VS your offense would be fun to watch. Our offense just isnt efficient enough yet.

how can you not like the celtics right now?

Guess Brown was the better matchup after all

 

[Manwiththeplan]

You know, he's obviously not as good as his brother, but Jontay Porter is pretty good as well. He's more of a small ball 5, but he's a solid finisher and good rebounder. Sloppy with the ball, but that can be improved on.

This season could be a blessing for the Mavs. If you guys can land Bagley with DSJ and Barnes, you would have a nasty young core

Simmons is a franchise piece.

And the stupid scary thing about it is that he may not necessarily be the best prospect on that team.

Im kinda curious to see what Fultz looks like when he comes. That while situation was pretty odd.

With the Cowboys lose last night i guess that wraps that up. It's Lakers full speed ahead now till the regular season ends (maybe some hockey if the Islanders make the playoffs). Then the World Cup in June.

Lakers got the win last night. Lonzo got his 2nd triple double last night. Still waiting for Ingram to develop a money jumper and he might become something between a all star and a elite player. Ahh will see.

I always put the Cowboys first before NBA basketball until the Cowboys are out of it. I think they won't be actually out of the playoff hunt until they lose a couple more games depending on who they lose to. Once that happens I will be rooting for my Spurs. Thanks for telling me you are a Kyle Anderson fan. I like that guy.

For me it's the Lakers, Cowboys, Yankees, Islanders, USA Soccer team M or W, Croatian soccer team, Notre Dame football. Tabacco road college basketball.

I missed the first 3 minutes but it seems the Lakers are starting Clarkson at SG tonight, i don't mind the change up. I just hope Kuzma is ok.

 

[Sarek]

I just looked to the TV and Randle got hacked badly, but if the refs want to let it be nasty i got np with that, game on! Basketball was never meant to be a non contact sport.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

I don’t think it effects his draft stock much, but Michael Porter Jr is having back surgery and is out for the season

 

[Sarek]

I turn my head 2 minutes and the Lakers are down 12 now. ***!

 

[Sarek]

Lakers win, will take every win we can get. Scraping!

Don’t know the extent of the surgery but two things can be equally true: 1) being so young, there’s a likelihood he snaps back quickly to normal post surgery in his recovery/rehab, or 2) something must be really seriously screwed up to have surgery this young.

Good read

Sixteen nuggets from the NBA's most unlikely 16-game win streak
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...ts-boston-celtics-wild-16-game-winning-streak

interesting read for all the celtics fans out there, or anyone following the win streak. albeit, every read is a good read when your favorite team is on a win streak.
