Celtics (0-0) at Raptors (0-0) 12/18

[hpantazo]

how we feeling about the bench mob now?  the idea that they could hang with sub-.500 teams is really being put to the test here.

What are the lineups for each side?

End of our bench vs. their starters

but that's the point; people were so gaga over our bench that some even suggested they'd be able to hang with sub-.500 teams.

well, this is a sub-.500 team, and they can't even get a shot off, let alone make a shot.

That's not the point at all. Sczeisma and Brown won't make the team, and Moore, JJJ, and Bradley will likely not play much. What people meant when touting out bench is Bass, Wilcox, Dooling, and Daniels. Those guys would beat the raptors starters imo.

No..what people were saying is that the 6th through 11th players on our team could stick with a 500 team...this is the 11th through 16th players on our team ie. the guys who wont even play.  They didnt come back against Quis, wilcox, bass, dolling, etc.

Exactly these guys may not even make the team.

The Raptors starting crew vs. Moore, Bradley, Brown, JJ and Stiemsma

How has E.Moore looked?

I would think that this would be a difficult set of matchups for him. DeRozan has too much size for Moore and Barbosa is a much more athletic and explosive version of Moore. I imagine he is at a pretty bid disadvantage out there.

They could probably put him on R.Butler but Moore isn't big or long enough to contest his shots on close-outs.

[ACF]

Nice shot by Moore.

Times 2!

[hpantazo]

btw, Moore might single handedly beat the raptors starters here

[33_Larry Legend_33]

Like the fact that Moore's not afraid to take the big ones... See how this finishes out.

[cman88]

moore has such a nice shot and cool considering this is his first nba game technically...

I think we may be seeing him more than bradley

yeah, and i agree with you as far as the unit out there right now is concerned . . . but the run that started this comeback began when key members of the bench were still out there, and those guys very noticeably could not score to save their lives.

Yup toss in a starter or two this game isn't even close

That's not what I saw. Our key bench guys have dominated most of the game tonight. I'm not sure why you insist on dumping on our new bench players when they played well.

Nice travel by Amir Johnson.
