starting 0-3 would be very very disappointing

I don't even want to think about this.

In advance: yes it'd be disappointing, but it wouldn't be the end of the world.
Last time we lost 3 in a row in the start of a season was back in 2006. Yall know how that season ended...

If we're going off history, then I look forward to creating another dynasty in the offseason ;-)

Is KG just not in game shape or is he rapidly aging before our eyes?
3rd game since Sunday, no pre-season and he's playing extra minutes because he's one of the few bigs who knows the defensive rotations....Not totally shocking actually....

KG, JO, and Bass are all pick and pop guys. If someone can't get some easy baskets in the post, it will be a long season. Tonight Daniels is are best option down there.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

What's the over-under on how long before Danny makes a move to get a serviceable center on this team?  I just don't see how this team can stay competitive for the whole season starting JO and backing him up with Stiemsma or Wilcox.  Desperately need an inside presence on both ends of the floor.

I'd still love it if the C's could make some sort of move to get Kaman.

yeah, it's true.  KG played way too much the last two games, and now he's probably gassed.  he looked spent against Miami, too.

KG needs to be limited to 25-30 minutes a night.  no more than that. give him the Tim Duncan treatment.  I wish Doc were even half as good as Pop at limiting his veterans and integrating and trusting young guys to play.

agreed, though it seems usually the celtics have a slow start, strong middle, and fall off at the end.

I like Stiemsma. JO and Wilcox can go along with Bradley and Pavlovic.
