I haven't been paying attention to the Buck's preseason--how has their Greek wunderkind been playing?
We d be up the ......dog poop creek with out. El Hombre ......I'm telling you, he'd be on Doc's bench.
I love how Sanders is complaining to the refs about Vitor's physicality.

Jeff Green though!
That was an awful turnover on the outlet pass by Faverani.
Is there any way, any way at all for Brandon Bass to grow a couple more inches.
I feel like if he's 6-10 or 6-11 he'll be a top 10 forward in this league.
I luv rebounding ....live for itI hate Doc Rivers basketball too.
Hate that one shot an leave ball

I hate to say it, but why the hell could Danny not get a center like this when Garnett clearly needed help? Oh well..
Faverani has hands, timing, a good inside game, hustles, and seems to be able to defend (so far). What am I missing? -- he's a legit starting center.
And looks like he can stroke the 3.
How in the world has this team scored over 60 points in the half?!
Faverani continues to impress. 11 rebounds and 4 blocks already!

Seriously? Lets go Bucks!!! Stevens needs to take Vitor out hes playing too well. Let the Bucks get back into this.

Assuming he keeps this up, it's an amazing find is why he didn't before. The fact that a guy is playing this well and wasn't drafted is pretty unbelievable.

I don't think Doc would of played him. The Celtics had a great record when Steamer got at least 20 minutes but Doc prefered small ball. I am so glad that guy is not around anymore.
Let's go Celtics!
well we've only played the Bucks and the Raps so far (i dont count preseason).
this bucks team is a complete mess.
im not 100% sold on Fav just yet. I wanna see him play against another reasonable starting center. Not Dwight, but maybe like a Gortat or Noah

This.
We had a somewhat healthy JO and he relegated him to nothing more but a screener and a defender even though we can dump the ball to the post to him a few.
It's Doc's fault. Faverani wont be playing in Doc's system.

Larry Sanders and Valincunas are both legit centers, not sure what you're waiting for. Valincunas is a top prospect and Sanders was in the running for DPOY.
Yes I want to see more of this play but these are both talented young players.

Chris Paul is going to go crazy in Doc's "system." He was riding his butt something fierce yesterday to get the win. But If Clips win 50 I will be very surprised.
Give the ball to Paul.

It looks like the Bucks defense is coached by Doc

Paul is a veteran pg. Doc deals well with this.

Plus CP3 is a superstar. I think he always has this dominant side of him and will appear if he wants to, not because a certain coach asked him.
Back to topic. We have a big lead, I want to see Pressey and KO sniff the floor. Build confidence.
Green on the offensive end this half has been unbelievable. Stands in the corner.
Why give him a rest, he has been standing still. I just don't get it.
Speaking of Humphries, he hasn't played a minute.
Is there a problem or is ne just not in the rotation?

I'd play him over Sully. But Stevens is probably worried about spacing. Although, Humps mid range is above average IMO.

I think Hump has played well in his mins but the guy is a contract and rental. We are trying to develop Sully. No way.
Wolters was my draft sleeper this year. He's looking solid.
...C's looking a little better so far though.
Right now, we have no one who can create his own shot in the 4th quarter. Had the same problem last game. This is where Rondo will help. Pressey could....
I hate Bradley.You hate when he plays point guard
Did they get rid of that flopping rule?

Unless we're blatantly trying to lose Hump should get some of KO's mins
Avery Bradley is awful. I am sorry. Guy still has not learned how to play and type of point guard play and its terrible. Yes good defender but still turning the ball over hurts so much. Wallace too. He is a turnover machine. But Tommy was 100% right we stopped doing what got us a 22 point lead and we lost. Well this is going to be a long season.

we're not gonna be able to get good shots down the stretch in close games without Rondo. No one knows what to do, everyone is out of control
Free Pressey!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least Vitor looked good #lottery#Wiggins
It's bad when Pachulia is killing us.I can't believe the number of flops he got away with. shameful officiating to allow that blatant garbage
Without Rondo on the court in the last five minutes .....it s going to be terrible
No lead will be big enough :'(
This was a blow out game to win.......no offense when offense is needed to stop runs
Got to have a superstar, top five player on the team....DA said as much
Wow .....guys played their hearts out ......no star to bring them home.
Tommy was complaining about the lack of ball movement in 4Q. He was right. But he neglected to point out that the reason was that Milwaukee started hustling on defense. When that happens the limitations of your players get exposed......and our guys have tons of limitations.....
Good luck Brad keeping this outfit together......
No stars, just guys who can handle the ball, run an offense and knock down shots when the opposition decides to try.Without Rondo on the court in the last five minutes .....it s going to be terrible

This loss was not about not having a star to bring the game home. This loss was about guys handling the ball that had no business trying to set up the offense. It was about bad shots leading to easy fastbreaks and leakouts. You didn't need a star to win this game.
Phenomenal. Another fantastic game. We pulled out another loss, got very promising results from Fav and got trade-value-boosting minutes from Wallace, Bass AND Lee. Couldn't have asked for a better result tonight. Very pleased.
I hope the entire season goes like this... hard-fought losses.

Oh of course you're pleased. I mean, you love every single second the Celtics are being losers.
Faverini is fun to watch. Lefthanded hooks with laser accuracy and pillowy touch, putback jams in transition, physicality on both ends, high energy, a decent touch from outside. What a great scouting job by the front office. He's all the more enjoyable because I had no prior judgment about him.
Can someone explain to me how we lost?.
I missed the whole second half.
I don't think that team would be very good, maybe mid-level playoff team. Rondo, Green, Fav < DWill, JJohnson, LopezFaverini is fun to watch.

If he keeps playing this well and Rondo comes back before January, it might have a somewhat somber undertone. We'll have to wonder what this team might have been with Rondo, Pierce, Green, KG and Fav all playing together. KG and Fav together... *sigh*...
I don't find it very likely that Fav will continue to play this well, though. And who knows when/if ROndo will come back. So whatevs.
Bradley didn't play that bad, but he was a +9 for the game. Vitor played much better and he was only a +1.
