A day late but here is a new thread for the new season!
What are everyone’s predictions?
Thread title changed for new season
Flipping Mark Jackson covering the Celtics game. Just all I need to ruin my weekend.
Giannis got away with a clear charge there. Refs are piss poor calling him when he initiates contact, piss poor. And I’m not saying that as a homer.
holiday with a double dribble in transition there missed by the refs 🙄
boston firing bricks to beat the band and yet only 10 down
Only 6 down after the first, a slight positive considering the amount of misses they have had.
Dude, the refs are just bewildering, the only consistent thing about them is that they are consistently bad, I thought the days of conspiracy theories with refs were done but some of these games are crazy
Between the charge and the illegal screen Giannis should have 2 offensive fouls by now.
Boston on a roll
The strange thing is I just think they’re bad rather than biased against one team.
in every series though Giannis is getting away with murder. He’s almost reached LeBron status on that front.
Yea, I’ve noticed that also, some crazy soft calls.
Rooting for Celtics here, very likeable team, this should go down to the wire
There's been problems calling charges back as far as i can remember, actually shooting watching Giannis get away with it so much. Let's go Celtics!
Cant get much better than this on a Sunday
Celtics have to be the happier there going in, playing poor and winning.
Giannis though playing well could legitimately have 4 or even 5 fouls now.
Ah here, stop lying. We all know you’d rather be here in the rain. 🤣
What the **** are the refs at jesus christ.
Right, I miss the doom and gloom
Celtics looking really good right now, don’t want to jinx it for you but you should be able to put this to bed with that crowd behind the team.
Jesus these refs
Pritchard is having a good game, I honestly don’t know anything about him, is he really good or just having one of those games ?
Happy that Boston won. Going 4-33 from the 3 point line won't win you a game. I also thought that Budenhozer did a terrible job and made 0 defensive adjustments to defend the perimetre, some of the open looks the Celtics were getting were staggering. I can't see Spoelstra making the same error as he's a far superior coach than Bud. Should be a good series, hopefully the celtics win.
He’s good at what he does. Great at shooting at ball handling, defensive liability be wise of his size. This was NOT a flash in the pan game by any means.
Dallas are bringing it big time so far, this would be some result. Luka is putting on a clinic right now, this is a crazy game so far
Well, that just happened, I can’t believe the beat down the Mavs just gave the Suns, that was embarrassing for the Suns.
Cant wait to play Luka next Wednesday, going to be intense
CP3 choking as he does.
Booker a liability when he can't front run. As Jordan would say "it's easy to talk when you're up. the real shít talk is doing it when you're down"
Luka. My God.
the bucks deciding not to guard Grant Williams for the 3 pointer at all back fired !!
death by 3 pointer
Be interesting to see how the Miami series will go. Celtics will need Rob Williams back for sure
Iam torn on the CP3 bashing, I think it’s very easy to tear someone down after bad results like that, Iam by no means a CP3 fanboy, anyone that has watched basketball consistently over the years, knows how good he is but we also know the facts and big losses in big games, it’s easy to pile on when things like this happen but there are a lot of variables that go into these situations.
Has anyone followed Beverly on ESPN yesterday, quality tv, lol, he really doesn’t like CP3 and doesn’t hold back, I love it
Heading to game 1 on Wednesday, pretty excited about it now
Celtics have to do what they did against the Bucks and that's let Jimmy Butler do his thing but shut down his supporting cast.
I think Celtics handle Heat pretty easily, if I'm honest.
Fully expect Heat 4-0 now I've predicted that
I think Bam could be a big problem for the Celtics !!
