Boston Celtics at Fenerbahce Ulker
Friday, October 5, 2012
2:00 PM ET
TV:  NBA-TV, CSNNE 
Pregame on CSNNE  1:30 PM ET
Ulker Sports Arena
Istanbul, Turkey


After 6 days of practice and very competitive scrimmaging between green and white teams, the Celtics finally get to play against some new blood.  Fenerbahce is a tough team and should be a good first test for this new look Celtic team. 

Doc said he plans to play the starters about half the game; he wants his players just to compete and get accustomed to playing opponents again.    They are still struggling a bit from jet lag and time difference and travel but they are more than ready to finally compete in an actual game.

Here is a link to Fenerbahce tv online, I have no idea if they are streaming the game but it's worth looking at.

Even though it's only preseason, I am really looking forward to this game. :)
And for those of you who don't follow Euroleague keep an eye on McCalebb. One of my favorite players to watch in Europe, NBA talent for sure.

Here is his dunk over Al Horford http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0toy0kh20E

Yes, yes, yes! We are officially back.

A new season, a new game thread and another TP for FL.

Here's to a great season, my dear Celtic brothers and sisters. Enjoy. And always remember:

Go Celtics!

TP, FL!

Let's do it, C's!

It's a pre-season game, yes - but let's start sharpening those new weapons of ours for Oct 30!

Not that it really matters, but isn't Rub Kurz still on the roster?  Didn't see him listed (and I totally missed that we brought Micah Downs to training camp.)

If you drive a very special, one of a kind, custom DeLorean, and you start NOW, you might be able to make it...or maybe not...depends on if you have it in reverse...

Anyone know who is calling the game for CSNNE?  Did they send Mike with Scal or Donny (I somehow can't see Tommy in Turkey...just a gut feeling there), or are they just jumping on NBATV's broadcast?
