 Oh man, finally the day has arrived for our NBA World Champion Celtics team to begin actual televised preseason games, GOOD STUFF!  :D

  Like everyone here, I'm excieted as hell for this season to start in defense of our title, but first to get a good look at the new talent as well as the overall evolution of the team this preseason, starting tonight. And even the battle of the boards here on Celticsblog (you folks are the best, even in spicy disagreements); Let the long strange trip begin, having great hoops, hops, (sorry, hopes(SP) ;D )
to the addition of banner #18 !!!

A quick question:
Not being an Internetz freak and all, I
don't know if I can watch this game at
Comcastsports? Do I need an account?
If so, what does it cost?
Or is it only possible to
watch in North America?
(If so: [dang] you once again, David Stern!!!)


My thanks in advance.

Just wanted to say I had to give FL a TP because I hadn't seen one of her game threads in a while and it made me feel all "Celticsy" again. As always, great job FL, looking forward to about a hundred more or so this year!

I agree, after the loooong offseason and crazy and funny off topic threads and trade ideas and what not, it is very refreshing to have a game thread back up here.  Can't wait for the first look at the squad tonight.

This is especially going to be interesting because we didn't get to see the young guys in the summer League.

I expect Powe to make the leap this year as one of the best sixth men of the league.

I am hoping to see TA get alot of minutes so we can see his knee and mental state with injury and hopefully he gos off and gains some confidence. IMO he will be are most needed player this year and will be are sixth man of the year!

I've seen Tony Allen, I've seen Gabe Pruitt, I have low expectations for O'Bryant, but I tell you what, Im member number 1 in the bill walker hype club.

I agree about the Doc stuff.

Also though we need to add an athletic wing defender that is more consistent (or less damaging) than Tony Allen on defense.

Maybe a guy like Ime Udoka, or Trevor Ariza (both I understand unattainable)

I think the guy that will best address this and that will be the best addition to our squad is Bill Walker.

He just needs a nickname. I vote "The Cat"

I agree with you I am excited to see TA as well but I don't think we can judge his mental state based on one game though.

What do you think, will the Celtics try to mold POB into a Dalembert type of player this year?

Im kinda pessimistic about Paddy....my first inclination was to say "you can mold jello into a poodle, but its still just a jello poodle."
