The Celtics are going nowhere unless they get someone to provide interior defense. Kantor isn't that guy; neither is Williams. Maybe one of the dumpster signings will work out, but last year they consistently got beaten inside-and they had Horford last year.

 

Honestly now that Leonard is gone Toronto falls back to average or just slightly over. Celtics are the second best to Milwaukee. They will be good this year.

f***ing Guardians take a 4-2 lead. That’s a team we might battle for the wildcard

 

I think it may well come down to this. I have a sense that Oakland will lead the wild card, and that we and Cleveland will battle for the second spot. Or, we could lead the way and Oak and Guardians battle it out.

Philly should be one or two. Indy will be better. and Toronto won a lot of games without Leonard this year, sos they might surprise.

I feel like philly lost a lot of shooting. We shall see.

I think they will win more games this year. Irving's style of basketball was a total mismatch to the Celtics style of play. Too often guys all stood around watching Kyrie dribble dribble dribble then shoot. That just doesn't work for most teams. The Rockets do it with Harden, but it got then nowhere either. I am tired of watching that and tired of watching guys like Drummond and the Greek Freak decimate the Celtics at the rim. They need a bona fide #5 or they are going to have a lot of problems.

The Bucks lost Brogdon, the 2018 Rookie of the Year. They will also lose a couple role players.

They lost Butler and Redick but got back Richardson and Horford, they didn't really lose a lot. They're still really good.

Rays blew another save.

2018? Brogdon has been in the league at least 4 seasons now lol.

Ooops.

 

LOL

[moonslav59]

14 more to go!

Richardson is not a good shooter though. 41 percent. Horford is ok. He’s a good player but he’s getting up there in age.

[Jasonbay44]

Rays just won on a walk off bomb

Ex-Met puke d'Arnaud bailed out dumb ass Cash.

Thankfully D'Arnaud bailed the Rays out.

[d-money]

Rays win 4-3. Cora still thinks we can win the division lol.

What happens if we tie for the second spot? Do we have another deciding game ? Like a pre playoff games?

[TylerD]

Philly should be one or two. Indy will be better. and Toronto won a lot of games without Leonard this year, sos they might surprise.

 

Philly doesn’t have Butler anymore. Not sure about them. And yes Toronto will still be a decent team just don’t see them being a top 3 team.

[Jasonbay44]

Richardson is not a good shooter though. 41 percent. Horford is ok. He’s a good player but he’s getting up there in age.

 

He had to shoot way more than he should've because Heat were bad and had a lot of injuries. He's an elite defender and is elite catch and shoot guy. 37% from 3 for career and shot 45% from the field the year before. He's severely underrated.

[moonslav59]

Good news: Yanks lose in bottom of 9th.

 

Bad news: Rays win in bottom of 9th.

Yup. the 2 teams play on Monday.

I see this happening to us lol.

Umm I said they are a better team I'm not saying they win it all .That ship hasn't arrived yet .I do think G Williams !Kanter ,Poirer are an upgrade over what we had .I also think between Edwards can shoot the lights out and is not a Defensive liability .Team Chemistry fit is better this year .I think They will shock some folks .We have some players that where miserable last year playing with Kyrie I expect Kemba to be a better fit .Enjoy this group of celts !!!

Start time?

[TylerD]

It comes down to who we want to play in the wild card. I don’t want to play Tampa, Oakland, Texas or Cleveland. I want to play Kansas City. So let’s cheer them on to a win streak shall we.
