[N o o d l e s]

I see Smart is still launching ridiculous threes

actually, Tatum was the one doing that, btw, Kyrie cries at Nets season opener as the featured face of the Nets

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

NBA must not like the Jaylen Brown extension for some reason, 9 minutes 8 rebounds 4 fouls

Don’t question it. Let the the meandering continue. It is very entertaining

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Kyrie who, HAS 25, but do C's fans care

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Sixers up 1 at the Half....

 

[Johnnyduke]

5 fouls for Brown one minute into the 3rd quarter?

 

[dabid]

gonna be a long season (saying this as reverse psychology as if it matters that i cursed the celtics on a basketball thread on a bruins subforum of a hockey message board)

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

19-2 run by the Sixers 62-50 Philly

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

hanging in there, folks, 68-63 Philly, despite the top 2 scorers going 9-31

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Embiid called for a Flagrant 1

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

77-68 Sixers after 3...... remember the Defending Champion Raptors come to the Garden Friday night

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

difference really has been at the "charity stripe" Sixers are 24-31 C's are 11-21

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

52 total fouls have been called thus far

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

C's have a pulse and are cardiac it's 77-73 NOW Sixers, and no Embiid on the floor

 

[CDJ]

Well... Kemba won’t go 3-17 every game

Hayward looks back at least

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

107-93 Loss.....

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Kyrie who gets 50.... but Glen Taylor laughs his way to a win

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

0-1 without Tacko.

 

[Smitty93]

Hayward looks back at least

I'd say that the most frustrating thing watching that game was that only Hayward really seems improved from last year. Tatum was solid, but is still taking some terrible long 2s. Brown got in foul trouble super early, so he never really got into the game. There's no bench scoring, which is where you need to take advantage of Philly. No one except Tatum could hit any 3s. They're still a bad free throw shooting team.

The most annoying thing might have been that it felt like they were still doing the one-on-one style offense that killed them last year.

Of course, it's Game 1 of 82, and Philly is one of the best teams in the league, so it's hard to say whether it's just one game against a good team or a sign of things to come.

 

[Alicat]

At least Hayward is back

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

0-1 without Tacko.

Tacko is in concussion protocol, and likely won't be cleared until G-League camp at the end of the month.... now how does Langford fit into this rotation when he's medically cleared, that'll be the next issue as to how Brad uses him, and how fast he can adapt to the NBA

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

I don't really watch the Celtics but I was curious how that Carsen Edwards looked.

 

[McGarnagle]

At least nobody compound fractured their leg on opening night
