Sixers (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Preseason Game 1 10/6/14

Noel = mediocre iq and feel of game. 

Too many ppl big him up here on this forum

It's his first preseason game and he didnt play last year.  I wouldn't draw any conclusions from this game.

Celtics are winning the championship this year !!!

[Shamrocker]

I'll take a win against anybody right now

I need it

The fans need it

The players need it

That's all..

Here, here.

Noel with his sixth foul.

For those hating on Noel, he has been injured, and isn't 100% there, but is mentally prepared to play in the NBA according to some 76ers friends of mine.

This is also his first NBA game, so hes bound to be rusty..

If he had like a 10, 12 RPG, and 2 BPG statline, some Cbloggers would've said we should have traded Rondo for Noel

Plenty of reasons to enjoy this game. Basketball is back!

getting sloppy now

Think Turner takes offense to getting traded for a 2nd round pick?

Not sure how Danny signed Turner to a 2 year 6 million dollar deal. Turner gave us a big discount

Looks like a guy that should be making at least 8 million a year

... he's a fifth-year vet playing in his first preseason game of the year against what will likely be the worst team in the league.

our defense is very good . Good job by stevens

Without one of Turner or KO out there, things getting bad.

KO

Best player on either team

Also the pre-season...

And against the 76ers, lets determine the first 3 weeks of NBA lol.

Agree though ET could've easily gotten at least 5-7 mil.

For sure, gotta keep things in perspective.  The 76ers are a joke.

But getting Turner for a 2nd round pick (or 3 mil per year) is a bargain.  People wrote him off because he just didn't fit in with the Pacers.  Fans who have seen him play know perfectly what he is capable of, and he can have these types of games against the good teams as well.  He had a knack of doing so against us the in playoffs of recent.

The thing about Noel is that he's not Anthony Davis.  The Brow is at another level and was in college too.  Noel could be really good but he's not a potential franchise like Embiid.

Zeller is a waste of space. I am really disappointed. He reminds me of KO without the ability to shoot or dribble. Sure he can run, but what does it matter if his hands are made of thumbs?

[SCeltic34]

Smart's gotta just bulldoze his way to the basket and get to the foul line.  His shot is obviously failing him this game.  Go to the rack.

Glad I caught the 4th. Cool beans!
