Celtics (0-0) vs Sixers (0-0) Preseason Game #1 10/4/16

[dang] I called both last plays.  I am stevenesque.  Marcus missed it though.

[Surferdad]

C's Marcus Smart causes a turnover on the inbounds.  Good job.

[dreamgreen]

I'm so pumped right now, Brown is way ahead of where I thought he would be at this point!

he looks good, but keep in mind he's going up against undrafted players with no NBA experience.  That Philly lineup is essentially D-league level.

Still, you expect a #3 pick to outplay undrafted players.  So it's good to see that happening a bit.

For me I'm looking more at his passing and play making, and how comfortable he looks out there.

It was good defense though. They were waiting for it and philly had to squeeze it inbounds then they were cobra'd.

[walker834]

C's have another shot at it.

[walker834]

Mickey and Smart both miss 3's.  Ah well.  Good experience.

Yeah, my point is he SHOULD look comfortable out there in comparison to the guys he's going against

Brandon Paul - 23 years old, undrafted, 0 NBA experience
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot - 21 years old, 24th pick, 0 NBA experience
Rodriguez - 30 years old, hasn't played in the NBA since 2010
James Webb - 23 years old, undrafted, 0 NBA experience
Richaun Homes, 22 years old, #37 pick last year, played 51 games last year.

Only Homes played in the NBA last season - for a 10 win team that was historically bad.  Those players averaged a combined 5.6 points last season.

You'd expect a #3 pick to tear up that group.

Uh, set up for Mickey for the 3??

Can some one describe the last play please

[positivitize]

Jaylen's dunk makes this game a net win for me.

He got to the rim SO EFFING FAST.

I'm so excited my posts are coming out like rollie's

Or you could just say its pre-season.

Point taken. Nice to let him build confidence against scrubs hehe. I agree with the "#3 pick" stuff but many people thought he wasn't a #3 pick and he's also a very young kid. Lets see what he does against real bench players.
