Smart always have an A-game playing in either Dallas or Oklahoma. Don't be surprised if he explodes in this game on either side of the court.
Is morris out for this game too? or is his status not yet confirmed?

Aron Baynes vs Steven Adams
This will be a clash of the titans. Both centers are tough and aren't afraid of banging inside. We should see some mighty battles for position in the paint between these two. Adams is averaging 14.4 points, 8.7 rebounds and 1.3 blocks. Baynes will need to keep him out of the paint and away from the basket.
Why do I keep reading it as "Cheapskate Arena"?

So excited for tonight! The game before with Cleveland at Washington will be good, too, especially given Cleveland's likelihood of losing given their current slide.
The best team the young guns have played to date so far. Should be a good game. If the C’s bench can play well they can get it done. Would love to be at this one but can’t.

OKC has no bench. If we can "contain and limit" OKC big 3 we have a shot.
Hate be a debbiedowner and hope I'm wrong but OKC win by 12

yes....I see Theis and Semi playing a huge role if this team is gonna win . Both teams with a finisher , could be nail biter with winning shot with a sec or less on the clock. Look for,th last minutes to be a one on one game. ....Westbrook vs Uncle Drew ......show down at the OKC corral.
In the SAC game, Theis did most of his damage against their backup C, Kosta Koufos. I like Theis coming off the bench in his 1st season.The best team the young guns have played to date so far.

It's funny, Theis has pretty much flourished in all of the minutes he's been given except for the one start. The guy has been solid. He and Baynes have complemented each other well for the center minutes. Amazing to see Semi develop a little role for himself too.
Guys are definitely making the most of the gaping hole created by Hayward's injury.
Hopefully Tatum can continue to grow in those second unit minutes.

I know he may be a bit limited since it's his first game, but I think we'll really need him tonight against a ferocious OKC team.

Honestly ....I d be kinda disappointed if he and Smart did not get at least ONE tech foul each . ;D

Mike Callahan is the crew chief, be prepared for some terrible officiating..
Such a defensive intensity from both teams. But bench play will be a factor.

My God, can we get any freaking consistent officials?? That was an absolutely clean strip!
this game is physical
Can I please get a mother chuckin moment of silence please for Abby Chin's shoulder less purple lacy top?
Ohhhh yeeeeaaahhh. I almost forgot about that! She had a good run back thenCan I please get a mother chuckin moment of silence please for Abby Chin's shoulder less purple lacy top?
Lol, TP. I remember you becoming even more infatuated with Abby during her pregnancy. You're a weird dude, and I both love and respect it.
that was a pretty messed up swipe Westbrook took at Jaylen

I'm in a hotel with the kid sleeping and the game. This hard keeping my calm....
Looks like they're reviewing for a flagrant. Generally, hits to the heads like that are flagrant 2's and ejections (which is questionable), but no way they throw Russ out of this game.

Morris is rusty as hell. Maybe not the best game to have him back in the lineup, our offense looks terrible.
Morris ISO game is tunnel vision with bricked shots so farwell, his first game back, but his shot selection is not impressing me so far.
If the Celtics do not retaliate for what Westbrook just did to Brown, it may not bode well for our teams view them the rest of the season. You have to send a message to Westbrook that you cannot do that to our teammate.

celtics had 3-4 easy shots they missed from in close. make those and the game is pretty close.
lots of time left folks, celtics will come back!!! ;D
Kyrie will really need to get going.
0 points on 0/4 shooting in 8 minutes.
How many times is Hubie going to say an OKC player " Got away with a hook?"

Brown already got laid out! Time for a Celtic to lay out back! CRASH!
Find a way to get this about even before the half.

LOL huh? How about just keep this deficit to less than 15 :P
So I missed the start of the game. Did RW and Brown get into a dust up or something?

OKC defense is really good

They have the best defense in the league. Going to go ahead and concede that now lol
Wish Tatum would just take over
So I just realized... Jayson Tatum is Age 19 and born March 3, 1998...I wish you hadn't said that. I'm feeling really old now
So he was born just 2 days after me... :o

I don't like the energy of the team so far.
Anyone else notice that OKC should be called for a defensive 3 seconds like every possession this game?
I don't like the energy of the team so far.
What happened to the ball movement these last 5 games.
Way too much iso so far today...
Uh....can we trade for Steven Adams?

Yep, the pressure D really throwing off our O. I'm guessing a butt-chewing will come at the half.
Might be lucky if they keep it under a 30 pt loss tonight.
Early season results might have been a little fools gold.
I think. Therefore I am an Irish Catholic Celtics fan.Might be lucky if they keep it under a 30 pt loss tonight.

I think Kyrie has missed 4 layups in a row.
Get all the misses out of the system and hit a shot guys. Two in a row would be nice.
13 for 42
Can't get any worse and yes OKC plays D, but they aren't that good.
OKC are really packing the paint. Celtics are overthinking on offense.
I expect OKC to cool off some, but the Celtics are going to have to make tough shots.

This is the type of game where Hayward would have been key.
No. I'm on the national broadcast. The commercial where the kid grows up and becomes the NBA player. I think it says "Want it all" or something like that at the end. Hate it. But I admit the music sorta gets in my headI think. Therefore I am an Irish Catholic Celtics fan.Might be lucky if they keep it under a 30 pt loss tonight.

TP for the Descartes/Celtics quote blend.I hate this commercial.
The Lonzo commercial? Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous.
Celtics look like they did in the ECF. Totally intimidated! Complete team break down, no team play just failed one on one.
Junk D by Brown - way to go WAYYY under the screen there and give George the wide open 3. This game is a total bummer.
Adams literally pushed Morris from the 3-point line to the restricted area on that perfectly legal screen right there. ::)

I keep telling you guys. Having another reliable two-way vet who can shoot like Morris is going to be very good for us.

DET so far is 6-3 and look pretty good too.

I love that Jaylen is still being aggressive despite some of his struggles.
CELTICS are SOFT.
Kyrie is ****ing useless with Westbrook on him. Brad needs to sit the kid if we're going to make a dent in this lead. Look at the difference between he and Jaylen Brown - it's absolutely absurd. Physically, one can hang in this game, and the other can't. Problem is, we traded away what will potentially be another Jaylen Brown-level prospect, an arguably better player, and a starting SF for him. SMH. I want to see him fail. He can wear his little post-game mittens in Minnesota.
When did Andre Roberson morph into Brown's body? Good Lord, Jaylen. Hit your free throws!!

I really don't give a ****. He's a superstar. Play like it. I don't even care if he can't hang -- we gave up too much for him not to play with some chops. It pains me that Boston fans are not shredding him. He's such a little cupcake.

How many rebounds has Brown gotten this quarter? Seems like he's grabbed almost all of the defensive boards this quarter.

No, he's definitely been way too passive tonight. It's nights like tonight that he has to be the "guy" that he wanted to be. He needs to take over.

Thank you, jp. I don't care if a guy goes down swinging.. but at least take some initiative and fight out there. That's all I want to see in a game like this. These can be confidence-altering games, esp for such a young team.
Good Lord, why is it ALWAYS Rozier's man who gets the open shot..
Tatum should take that last shot, not Smart.

I think I'd like to see Kyrie play most of the 4th, along with Horford playing most of it, too. Need to capitalize when all three of their main guys aren't out there, especially with Kyrie getting going a bit now.
Kyrie is finally taking it to them! That's what THE MAN does for his team!
Tatum should take that last shot, not Smart.
I would've preferred Brown, but I wasn't mad at that attempt from Smart. if he pulled up for a 3 tho i wouldve been tight.
What happened to the league not counting those continuation calls anymore??
GET Baynes out he is tired.
Smart does not play smart basketball. He is a hustler but smart he is not.
GET Baynes out he is tired.
Theis won't do in this game. He's just outsized.
If Hayward was healthy, the Celtics have this in the bag.
I like the fight, but can't seem to get over the hump.thats okay. just get it close for the return of the starters.
We need to bring in our main dudes while this is still within reach. This unit has held on long enough, and quite decent. Time to bring in what we have and snatch this game.
Man, thank you, Aaron Baynes.
GET Baynes out he is tired.
Theis won't do in this game. He's just outsized.
Yeah, but Baynes needs a breather,
Rozier is blind
Kyrie intentionally missed that FT. Talk about a heads up play with the follow. :oglobetrotter move
He Missed on purpose didn't he
Why does everyone pronounce it "ojeYELAY" instead of "ojeLAY-YE"?they also mispronounce his first name its She-mi
Celtics win this game I'll lose my mind!
I knew all my cussing at the TV would pay off for the team tonight!![dang it], dont Edited. Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.ing stop go[dang] cursing now!!!! ;D

Horford shutting up the critics tonight. should put an end to those trade Al threadsrinse and repeat
Please get Smart in for Rozier.
JUST PUT HIM IN THE FREAK HALL OF FAME ALREADY!!
Please get Smart in for Rozier.
You got your wish! ;D
We should trade Horford while his value is high — did I get it right?
I'm a man, but I'll still have Horford's children
Hubie hust got excited...f him!
I'm a man, but I'll still have Horford's children
He's a big guy - do you think you could take that? :-*
Okay, okay, sorry about that - just a little giddy right now.
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm standing in front of my TV pumping my fist like this is game 7 of a playoff series.
Court full of stars tonight, but Kyrie was the best player on the court.
These referees just want OKC to win.
Ugh out of bounds
These referees just want OKC to win.
The bounce pass was out of bounds.
When is the last time we actually won in OKC? Hell, when is the last time we beat OKC at all?
Ugh out of bounds
What about Melo's foot? It was way over the line!
Hubie has wet dreams of Celtics losing when up by 5 with 5 left...

Yep. Shouldn't that be a violation of some sort? Aren't you supposed to give the inbounder some space.

Watching. I gave him credit in my last post. Thankfully he has done his job for half of the 4th quarter. Thank God for the consistency of Horford and Jaylen throughout. This game is now on Kyrie - his to win or lose. And I'll give credit where it's due.

Morris had a slow, awkward start in this game -- but has already shown his value.
wow
How about Horford and Irving .....holy smokes
EVERYONE here should give everyone else a TP. Haha!!
Best win of the season for me
Pleasant dreams for all! Hey, lets trade kyrie, al and tatum for cousins, rondo and okafor😁
Gorman -- 26 points from Horford/Kyrie in the 4th. Crazy.
many more. this team does NOT give up and roll over. CBS is an amazing coach.Best win of the season for me
There's more to come! ;D
Ugh what a game. C's showed ridiculous amounts of resilience. OKC also lost all of their intensity in that 2nd half. Horford and Kyrie are so clutch.
Good game. Didn't think we'd come back after being down 18. Our team can get HOTTTTTT and our defense makes it stick.
GREAT TEAM WIN CELTICSSSS
I love that Flat Earther Kyrie high fives Brad in the huddle. Jaylen Brown showing serious cajones shooting so badly most of the game but still D’ing up their wings and leading the team in boards.
yes!
Kyrie is ****ing useless with Westbrook on him. Brad needs to sit the kid if we're going to make a dent in this lead. Look at the difference between he and Jaylen Brown - it's absolutely absurd. Physically, one can hang in this game, and the other can't. Problem is, we traded away what will potentially be another Jaylen Brown-level prospect, an arguably better player, and a starting SF for him. SMH. I want to see him fail. He can wear his little post-game mittens in Minnesota.
They arr collapsing on kyrie.. because brown shot frok deep is off..
I really don't give a ****. He's a superstar. Play like it. I don't even care if he can't hang -- we gave up too much for him not to play with some chops. It pains me that Boston fans are not shredding him. He's such a little cupcake.
No, he's definitely been way too passive tonight. It's nights like tonight that he has to be the "guy" that he wanted to be. He needs to take over.
Thank you, jp. I don't care if a guy goes down swinging.. but at least take some initiative and fight out there. That's all I want to see in a game like this. These can be confidence-altering games, esp for such a young team.
You went ghost.. where u at?????
Watching. I gave him credit in my last post. Thankfully he has done his job for half of the 4th quarter. Thank God for the consistency of Horford and Jaylen throughout. This game is now on Kyrie - his to win or lose. And I'll give credit where it's due.
I can respect that... Just understand ecery game has a different flow.. kyrie found his spot and killed it
Great game from Jaylen too. Obviously concentrating on getting rebounds now. He is just a beast down the defensive end..

Jaylen Brown always keeps his head up and keeps playing!

Heck of a win for the C's.

I don’t know if we win this game without Morris. Dude is tough..!
LESSON by the Celtics tonight is mental toughness is more important than physical toughness.
ha. i missed that part of the game. a tp to anyone who can give video of this, please.I don’t know if we win this game without Morris. Dude is tough..!
we started bouncing back after he laid out Melo. We need his toughness.

Yeah, Red was The Man. He's ripping that cigar like a champ. One of the mods actually recommended the gif to me, pretty amazing.
I'll be honest, I don't think last year's team pulls off that comeback.
I know they had a lot of comebacks, but they probably could not have come back from this game with the lack of interior strength/rebounding (via Baynes and co.), and with how awful they started (esp. if Isaiah was contained).
Now they have rebounding, bruisers, more scoring options, and a DEEP bench. Kudos to Ainge, he built a great team! ;D

Now if the Nets can comeback on the Lakers, that would really top off tonight's win!!!

you nailed it!! baynes, smart, brown etc are BRAWLERS! they kept banging on the D end. we have guys who can play both ends and we saw it tonight.
But without Bradley n Crowder we were supposed to lose out toughness weren't we??????????? Our D would suck without those 2!!!!!! HA....Brown is bigger,longer and I feel a more versatile defender than AB. KI is a much better defender than IT in every area. Crowder was solid and I liked his defense but Tatum was been outstanding for a rookie and will only get better. This whole team is filled with good defenders and they are young. And all this without Hayward. With Morris just getting healthy there should be even more defensive depth on this team.

avery was a good defender but brown has already passed him as a better overall player. we have a bulldog in smart and pitbull in baynes. doberman pinscher in theis. and Brown is slowly turning into a rottweiler. we do not lack BITE!
Reading the soft comments is kinda funny now. This team is nowhere near as soft as last year.
Cut ties with KO, Tyler Zeller, J Jerebko, Jae Crowder (phony tough), James Young, Demetrious Jackson, and Amir Johnson
Bring in Baynes, Semi, Tatum, Theis, Nader, Larkin, Morris, Bird
This team is way tougher. Way way way tougher. No pony tails any more.

Well this just needs a full team breed breakdown now..
Marcus - Staffordshire Bull
Kyrie - Maybe Maltese showdog with tricks??
I think Horford is a Rhodesian Ridgeback, or a Labrador
Not sure about the Theis comp above
Jaylen is a good Rottweiler.
Our shooting percentage isn’t a mirage. We’re having a hard time running our offense. We’re misisng open shots but we’re not balancing that with many easy shots.
