Bucks (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Game #1 12/23/20

JB went 11 for 15 from the field after starting the game 2 for 9.  All Star this year, snubbed last year.  Book it

I'll go you one farther than All-Star.

Jaylen will be both All-NBA and All-Defense this year.

Book it.

The NBC Sports Boston postgame is almost as interesting as the game itself.  Scal is all fired up arguing with Abby while she’s antagonizing him.

Teague and Thompson sneaky good signings.

Once Kemba is healthy and back he's gonna be a great 4th option.

Thompson's rebounds and defense are just what we were missing last year

4th option? Dude started the All-Star game last year. Feel free to be optimistic about Tatum and Brown, but there is nobody else even close to being ahead of him in the hierarchy.

My bad, I miswrote that. I meant Teague is gonna be a great fourth option off the bench

He is an awesome two way player.

Great win.  Lucky win, but great win. 

Jaylen Brown played like a superstar.  33/5/4, 0 TOs.  I've never seen him run offense as effectively as he did tonight, and the fact that he did it against a contender-caliber team was great to see. 

Tatum frustrated me.  He clanked a lot of pretty easy layups, and I hated the iso-ball that he played down the stretch.  He'll probably work through the former as the season goes on.  I hope the same happens with the latter, but it's been an issue for long enough now that I'm less optimistic on that front.  But I'm also complaining about a guy who went for 30/7, sooo...

Thompson and Teague made a difference for us.

Not a great game from Jayson and he had 30.  Tatum is going to look like a superstar a few games in.  Jaylen showed the next level Jaylen tonight.

Liked Theis-Williams-TT tonight.   And Teague!  And Semi!

If Jaylen hits that All-NBAish level we're going to be a true title contender when Kemba gets back - we were plenty good last year in the bubble without Hayward.

Theis , Tompson and Tatum playing together ...Finally looks like a NBA sized team

does cbs finally admit size matters

I was thinking a bunch of guys on this board must’ve been happy when they saw the starting lineup. Thompson-Theis-Tatum-Brown-Smart.

I was very happy.

[liam]

That’s just a great way to start the season.

as much as some were complaining about Ojeleye playing, he was a +20 tonight...

Abby is a great choice to host. She was under-utilized as a sideline reporter.

i thought i was dreaming ....do we hhave a new coach ....i almost shed tears seeing this line up.   One hat will need to work to beat the best teams in half court playoff basketball,.  mini ball will work against reg season and average teams .....we need a big line up for playoff ball

Glad to have Thompson on the team, i didn't like him to much when he played for Cavaliers...

So, to those that scream about Brad Stevens and his timeouts, tonight with around 9:00 left on the clock Milwaukee was starting a run and instead of calling a timeout, Stevens saved it because the TV timeout was coming up.

Some were complaining about this as they usually do. But it's a good thing he saved it because he needed one with 8.9 seconds remaining so took his last timeout. He told JT go make it happen with confidence and Tatum hits his shot.

You can't constantly call timeouts early in the game because you'll need them late. You especially don't do it if a TV timeout is coming up quickly.

yup ....i d never in a million years saw that coming from semi

A great indicator of someone you would love should they ever don your colors.

We're first in the conference, boys...
