Celtics (0-0) at Sixers (0-0) Game #1 10/23/19

[slamtheking]

Gordon has looked good and no one has gotten hurt.  That's all I have for positives.

Timelord looked really good.

he just got owned on that play unfortunately

[Sophomore]

If they hit a normal percentage of free throws and Jaylen doesn’t get into foul trouble we would’ve been fine. Most pleasant surprise was that Embiid and Horford weren’t a huge mismatch.

[ozgod]

Hayward has been a bright light tonight. He should win the Tommy Award

[jpotter33]

Hayward has been really good tonight. That's a good sign. Should be running the offense through him more. Kemba has some jitters and isn't that acquainted to our system and guys yet, so need something else.

[Somebody]

Timelord has been up and down from the little I've seen, I'd rather have a more stable presence down low but he isn't as bad as I thought he'd be.

Yeah, agreed. We can stick with Philly..

[Ogaju]

Just pathetic. Really poor showing from almost everyone, including the coach. If this is what this season is going to look like it'll be time to move on from Brad. Maybe a great motivator of kids, but clearly can't take control of his own players or the games.

Danny needs to start looking for a coach that can light some fire under his players. Perhaps that is not Brad.

[CelticSooner]

Hayward has had a very good game.

[jpotter33]

Smart with some hella defense against Horford there, and thn Tatum goes and effs it up 

[RPGenerate]

Jesus H Christ, Tatum.

[slamtheking]

Hate Simmons but that was a helluva shot

[Somebody]

Hayward has had a very good game.

Agreed-he just needs a bit more aggression when he has the defender on his back, he settles for a floater too often in these situations.

[Ogaju]

Now Simmons of all people is clowning the team.

[BitterJim]

If they hit a normal percentage of free throws and Jaylen doesn’t get into foul trouble we would’ve been fine. Most pleasant surprise was that Embiid and Horford weren’t a huge mismatch.

Hopefully we keep that up, because front court defense looks like it will be our biggest weakness. Hopefully it isn't just the game plan

[trickybilly]

The need to trade one of Tatum, Brown, or Hayward, for a shooting big (like Horford) is uber apparent now.
