We look like it's the second game of the season, with only 4 returning players, playing on the second night of a back to back. Why we were scheduled for this back to back on the first two nights of the season is still beyond me.

Lakers 1st game is tomorrow LOL.

Defense is going to be a problem, if not all year, then at least for a while to start the season.  Does not look good against a Bucks team that doesn't have a ton of weapons apart from Giannis and Monroe.

Smart can't buy a freaking call for anything. This is ridiculous. He's been getting absolutely clobbered with nothing.

We just can't stop Giannis...

He keeps chickenwinging with his elbow. Every time.

Apparently that's "okay"?

Oh I agree with everyone else, he is getting the pampered treatment from the refs.
But we gotta be quicker against him on the perimeter and stop him from driving to the basket.  Make him shoot some jump shots.  if he gets within 5 feet of the bucket he is so skilled that he is going to find a way to finish with those long [dang] arms.

Then you add what happen last night on top of it, I'm sure everyone is drained mentally.

Okay, Kyrie needs to take charge this second half. This is what having your own team means. He needs to be more aggressive offensively.

You can't be a renowned flopper and get many calls.

If Marcus Smart continues to shoot, we're going to lose again.

Marcus + a lot of shots = Celtic loss. The rest of the team is shooting >50%, Marcus, 1 for 7. If Brad doesn't fix that, it's going to be a long season.

Really hope the C's take this. Need a big half from Kyrie. Hopefully Rozier, Brown and Tatum can keep it up.

Despite the heart and excellence shown by the young guns, it would still be sad to start the season 0-2 to be honest.

He’s not involved at all part of that is to do with Brad too. Also not his fault that he’s getting trapped to give the ball up in every pick and roll. This is why no Hayward hurts so much it’s gonna hurt Kyrie the most.
