Speaking of ESPN talking heads....
Why does everybody bring up Kris Middleton injury, Tyler Herro injury,  but no one mentions Timelord? He was just the anchor of an historically good defense.
because an unwritten rule of national broadcasts is that the Celtics get credit for nothing and anything they achieve is discounted as luck or another team's misfortune

Butler is their starting PF now? Are they trying to run him into the ground?

I am getting quite worried by what I've seen from Horford in the preseason and to begin the regular season.

I haven't been impressed with our defense so far this season.

I think Spoelstra subscribes to the same ball handler-wings-bigs positions as Brad does…there’s no distinction between a PF and a SF for him.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

With the increased pace and lots more fast break buckets, Jaylen could see a few points per game uptick in his scoring average. He's one of the best fast break players in the league and the emphasis on fast break basketball could mean great things for his game.

As a whole I love the pushing of the pace and getting out on the break. I think it will really help with regular season success.

Guys need to wake up. They can’t take this Heat team for granted. Good timeout by Joe.
