Celtics/NBA 2022-2023 Regular Season Part 1 - Jaylen Brown believed to suffer facial fracture, will miss time

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Woke up to a bleacher report that says Williams wants 20M a year.

it's because the contract's expired when the season does.... there's reports as well that Miami has inquired about signing Grant Williams but nothing was imminent

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

no Tatum tonight/but will appear in 3 point contest at All Star Weekend TNT Telecast @ 7:30

 

[DKH]

Derrick White only player in HISTORY with
8 threes
10 assists
3 BLOCKS

In a game

Those that remember 98.5 Felger & then Jones that day of trade trashed White

It’s pathetic the one major sport I’m not elite at and rely on to these guys to give me guidance and F it up

They were either trolling or clueless on his game and personality

I’ve dumped them both for podcasts and never been happier

 

[BostonBob]

no Tatum tonight/but will appear in 3 point contest at All Star Weekend TNT Telecast @ 7:30

At least he's got his priorities straight.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

no AL tonight @ MIL; Horford did say that he will play @ DET tomorrow before the league shutters for a weekend in SLC

 

[sarge88]

Celts should be proud, regardless of the outcome of this game.

80% of the starting lineup out

In Milwaukee.

 

[pgm16]

Quite the effort & performance on the floor tonight

 

[JRull86]

If there's such a thing as a "bad" win, tonight was it for MIL.

At home, 4 of BOS starters out, and you needed OT and a career high from Holiday to win.

Budenholzer is a dope.

 

[Mr Cartmenez]

I firmly believe that the Celtics are better than the Bucks. They also would have beaten them in last years playoffs even if Middleton wasn't out, as basically none of their 4 wins were particularly close. Although this series is bound to be the eastern finals and would probably be a very good one.

Great showing by the supporting cast. Impressive what Brad has assembled around the "big 4" over the years for very little value in return. Even the recent add, Muscala, does not look like a mere 2-3 minute depth guy.

Is injury-prone RW III still hurt? IMO he is hurt. He is a slow recoverer, IMO.

Not sure I've seen anyone on this forum with a bug up their ass for a player quite like this since that one guy from Maine who hated Tim Thomas.

Rob Williams is just a terrible match up against the Bucks. He can't shoot so lets Lopez camp the paint which is exactly what the Bucks want him to do and on defense the Bucks bigs like to shoot so he gets pulled away from the rim and isn't strong enough to stop Giannis. We just saw it in the playoffs but Mazzulla isn't going to dump on one of his players to the media.

nope.... otherwise why did he play last night with the team short-handed as much as it was you started a guy who just was acquired last week as the starting Center in Muscala

True. That's why Griffin and/or Muscala can make a difference with their 3pt shot. So Lopez cannot stay comfortable. We saw that last night that it can work.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

well here's the final update for the final game of the 1st half tonight vs DET:

NO Gallinari/Brown; Kabengele one of your 2 way contracts is out for personal reasons; Muscala sits as a B2B after 44 minutes last night.

yes to Tatum/Al and we have a Marcus Smart sighting as Smart has been activated for tonight

RW III is Questionable and apparently Derrick White is 75% but might be available

 

[CDJ]

honestly I just think they don’t want to give Milwaukee a lot of looks in the regular season that they’ll see in the playoffs and that’s why everybody sat and Timelord didn’t play much

Was that me? Maybe. I get that way. Am I wrong about RW?

Only Joe Mazzulla and RW III know the answer but you must agree something was wrong. Why did Mazzulla use him so little? Because he is a bad coach? He certainly could have used him. He put him in when needed to get into the OT if I recall. IMO there is a smell. I respect you opinion, I could be wrong. BTW the players love to win, and love the coach or am I wrong about that as well?

That makes sense. Thanks

back to back scenario, too, you have to manage minutes.... it's why Muscala is not playing tonight....

absolutely, they also said we could've locked them out of home court had we pulled it out last night by virtue of the season series


game is not national tonight but NBC Sports Boston..... TNT starts All Star coverage Friday from SLC;

well..... White has a busted ear drum.... but is expected to play through it..... no RW III Tonight after all

 

[EverettMike]

His name was Jeff.

Is your name Jeff? Did you hate Tom Thomas?

Yep, RW hurt out again.

His name was Jeff.

Is your name Jeff? Did you hate Tom Thomas?

No hate here but I probably said some bad stuff about him, WH visit, other stuff. So I was wondering.
