  • Everyone's excited for the new era.
Great effort in the first half.

Our offense is looking much better than it has in past games.

Our rebounding is improved as well.  Bass is showing a lot of effort in this area, and Sully is making life difficult for OKC's bigs.

The bench, especially Green, is playing well.  He's looking for his shot well, and Lee is playing great defense.

Finally, how about Jet?  Nice buzzer beater!

We see flashes of what this team could be on a relatively consistent basis.  The defense is still not even close to where it needs to be, but you can see the potential for great ball at both ends of the floor.

C's need to keep attacking.  Rondo needs to get to the rim more and hit the FT line.

Green has played well, but the team made a nice run with him on the bench, I don't see a problem with that. Sully also showing why he has the skills to have a decent NBA career. That cut to the basket where he got the feed from KG for a layup...maybe 10% of people in the NBA have the IQ to make that play.

Also, when people say something is "unacceptable", what are they saying exactly? Are they demanding some sort of repercussion has to be applied as a penalty or something? Or is it just a way of saying that something shouldn't really happen and they're just unable to express it correctly.

Very happy that they held okc To 50 percent shooting.  I am not a Jeff green fan, but doc clearly is a part of his problem. The guy will never do anything here unless he gets more minutes

The latter, combined with frustration about how poorly this team crashes the glass.

A lot of bright spots in that half. Pierce's shots weren't falling and Lee's shot still isn't falling, but this is the best I've seen us.

Outstanding half. My son and I were cheering like this was a game 7. The defense was VERY good when it needed to be, wiping out that 9 point deficit. We turned it on about 2 minutes into the 1st quarter and we both predicted Celtics were down 15 already (lol). They were down 3 and it was an excellent performance.

Still some clear issues out there on the floor, but very very encouraging.
