I hope Celtics have a plan to pay Marcus Morris.

aliondo:

Bobz,

That is because the kid already played 3 seasons of professional basketball in Europe with Real Madrid. You can see his calmness and composure with the ball. He does not seem fazed by anything. This may resurrect the argument about rookie of the year again if he is in the mix, which I have no doubt he will be.

3 games into the season and you are writing epistles. Where is roland17, make im gist you how Lebron snatched the heart out of the celtics team in d playoffs with that KING KONG roar last year

The king is not worried, you will all bow, las las

The Lakers have only 1 season, 2 max to get anything out of LeBum. Since he won his last ring, he stopped playing defense, this was very obvious last season and we are seeing it this season. Father time may grant him this season but that is it. The Lakers have not done themselves any good either because they lack perimeter scoring. Lonzo is streaking but that is only for a short while until the players begin to actually pay attention to his perimeter shooting.
Countering their interior offense is very simple because it is actually built around McGee. Take McGee out and they have no replacement or presence under the rim. Teams will look to get McGee in foul trouble and take it from there.
When he walked up to take the free throws, I knew his demons were coming to haunt him again and that is why it is difficult to move him past Kobe, worth more MJ for me. Kobe walks to that free throw line and drains both throws without blinking because he is clutch.

The Favre effect

Baddest rapper, so used to using one and same line over and over.

Bob, some fans think the rookie wall, typically after the all-star and sophomore slump are myths, not me. I was one of the few fans who were worried about Brown going into this season because he did not experience the latter last season which was his sophomore season. I think it is also important for us to note that this is the first season he is actually playing with the Celtics at full strength. Last season without Hayward and Kyrie he improved numerous aspects of his game and showed it on the court. I think the return of Hayward, Tatum's continuous surge and the dominance of Kyrie may have affected his psyche about his role with this team.
Good thing, we have a good coach in Stevens who I believe will help him get back to his groove. It is still early days, but it is obvious Brown is not in sync and is struggling. I have been impressed with Hayward's contribution to be honest, he has good rhythm and is finding his shot and space on the court. I believe he will build momentum as the season goes on, don't forget, his minutes are heavily restricted and he is not allowed to play back to back when games are on consecutive days.
The Celtics need to start early, we seem to come out lethargic and end up playing catch. We need to assert our game early and build from there. We also need to improve rebounding efforts on both ends. If you analyze out losses to the Magic and the Raptors, you will notice we could not grab the rebounds and this is abnormal for this team. I love the transition offense especially when Kyrie is around the bucket.

FBS:
He should be fine for next season as the number 1 driver. But who knows, Gasly might have other ideas.

Roland17:
Europa league loading.....

nitrogen:
Nothing is working, shey you will try to bring in someone to change the game. Sorry, I forgot, Sanchez was not available for the game, stup1d manager, Na only to fight and be having 2 and/or 3 fingers in the air, trying to tell opposition fans the number of champions league/EPL trophies he's won.

FBS:
Max on the other hand though is a beast if he can perform consistently.

FBS:
You know Nico had to practice 2 hours everyday with a psychologist. No wonder he resigned immediately after. No be beans.

As the saying goes...it's all in the head.

raumdeuter:
FC Hollywood is definitely back with our drama

The only positive was the result. A stronger team could have made it difficult for us

birdman:
He has to play d old man game...too many playoff miles. Coast until all star break. By then team should have gelled some

HouseOfWine:
Lol hell yeah! At least CP can know his fight wasnt futile, unlike some ppl

But damn, half a milli fine! Thats outrageous.

KNIGHTBlaed:
Bron misses the midrange jumpshot
Anothe L for Bron and the Lakers... Pop and Aldridge won this one!!
DeRozan just faded out of the game when it mattered most, good thing others stepped up. Aldridge was big in this one, Lakers had no answer for him

Roland17:
We have started games very slow this season and we were punished playing catch up against the Magic.

Roland17:
I am shocked "Born Ready" kept his composure.
