The Starters: a bunch of moronic idiotic analysts who don't really have a clue of any basketball knowledge, stated the Celtics are one of the worst defensive teams. Thanks Captain Obviousness..

They don't state the reason why the Celtics are a fun team to watch, because of their league leading passing, or great pace. They stated, "if you want to watch any player have a season high, go watch the Celtics!"

8 players have had their season highs against the Celtics.

I like to think as a team, we're really fun to watch, even if we're not anything special. I think compared to last year, we're twice as much as more exciting in our pace and passing.

If you're not a Celtics fan, isn't this a pretty good reason why they'd be fun to watch?

I think they were much better back when they were on the basketball jones. They had a lot more non sense, and were much funnier (and since they aren't more knowledgable than the average fan this was a good selling point). Now they are trying to be more serious and do less ridiculous things on NBAtv which has harmed their product.

I think its cause I'm very biased.

I have a few friends, who range from Knicks, Bulls, and Lakers. (Incidentally they all are teams Celtics have deep rivalries with.)

But they told me we're a fun team to watch. They also all strongly believe CBS has a very high potential as a head coach in the NBA.

Somewhere D Wade is throwing a remote at the TV saying "What do you mean the Celtics are a bad defensive team?!"

I mean yeah.  This team is bad.  We are going to win about 25-30 games.  We're giving up 109.4 points per game which is the 3rd highest in the league.  But yes, we are scoring 107.4 points per game... which is also 3rd highest in the league.  That tells you that there will be a lot of fast paced entertaining games this season where Boston will lose.

Agreed -- but we're Celtics fans. It would take some seriously terrible stuff for me to not enjoy watching our team. I can't hold the rest of the world to that standard.

Oh my gosh yes. Those guys are really good at being silly, funny, Canadian dorks- making fun of people's names, being raptors homers, and talking about their rec leagues. Now they are trying to deliver this standard talking-head-sports-analyst fare and it's just awful. Stay in your lane, basketball jones.

The Celts are a terrible defensive team both by the numbers and by the "eye test".

yeah they may be losing but we've seen that plenty before. at least they're fun games to watch, high scoring, and there's hope. that hasn't always been the case.

How that show makes it is beyond me.   They barely know their butts from a hole in the ground.

Pretty none of these guys have started since biddy ball from the looks of them.
