We open the season playing in Boston against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It will be on TNT.

thats an awful opener. i want us to blow out our opening team by 39 points again. i don't want any chance of losing and having it ruin our ring ceremony day... 

and i'll enjoy lebrons face as pierce gets his ring.

btw, we get the christmas day special. nice.

Lakers on Christmas Day, I knew that was coming.

Looks like we get a fairly easy early schedule again this year - good recipe for adjusting to the new rotations and getting a good division lead together.  Only 2 big West road trips and one is broken up by the All-Star break.  I like the look of this over all so far. 

And yeah, XMas day is going to be a lot of fun...and we are going to be on national TV left and right this year (though still less than the Lakers I'm sure).  Can't wait...

[Ersatz]

Interesting early November mini-West road trip. Instead of three long West trips (four games or more), it's only two, with some quick trips planned for the some of the Plains games. Except for that brutal one around the all-star break, which at least is broken up a bit. And they play in San Antonio on a Friday. Wahooo!

Holy Crap, Christmas Day QUINTUPLEHEADER, and most of the games are good:

12: New Orleans at Orlando
2:30: San Antonio at Phoenix
5:00: Celtics at Lakers
8:00: Washington at Cleveland
10:30: Dallas at Portland

Except for the usual Wizards/Cavs crapfest, that looks like one great day of basketball watching - sorry friends, family, and other loved ones, I'm booked for the day!

[Donoghus]

Uh oh....

Another St. Patricks Day in Chicago.

Please, no green on green this time.  I still don't know which team won that game a couple of years ago. Too confused on who was who.

You lack confidence.  Celtics are the Champs and are at home.  Cleveland is a mess of a franchise.  They don't scare me.

  Honestly, that was practically unwatchable.
