Hmm....interesting. If Rondo plays C's probably win....by the time he comes back will winning be worth it?

Good game by the Celtics

we lost because of turnovers...just got to communicate and take care of the ball better. I am optimistic.

Bradley still should not run point. Let Green FLLYYYYYYYY...

Players that stood out - Wallace, Humphries, Green, Vitor

Players that that did not impress me - Lee

Celtics needs to stop over passing on the post. Most of those turnovers that I saw were careless passes to the post. That one play where Crawford and Olynk should have finished when Bradley missed the steal - it was a 3 on 1

VITOR!!! I LOVE the guy

Wallace, Green, Vitor and Humphries should all play 30+ minutes.

overall, good game...Can't wait for Sully to come back and see how he helps

Hey at least Jeff Green pulled his finger out and played well.

his problem is more on consistency

Jeff plays a consistent, good game and he's still inconsistent.

Crawford, by the way, established that he's a much better as a point guard than Bradley.


Again.

(on offense, obviously).
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

I agree.

I know it's not all pretty with Crawford but he does some thing we need.  If he is in control when he gets in there he should be playing over Lee for sure and a decent amount of time.

Yeah, Crawford should really be getting the majority of the pg minutes with Pressey and Bradley getting back-up minutes. Bradley is much better as a two-guard and they should easily be able to switch off on defense.

J-Craw with Pressey as backup seems to be the way to go.

Press did not impress but he's far more in control.

Otherwise offense by committee.

Never AB running the offense. Not this season at least.

He started out crappy game 1 of preseason also. He will get better.

He needs to be on with a legit pg like karl malone needs to, to be productive.

Not alot of cutting to the basket or transition basket to get best out of olynyk passing/baskets

Stevens played a ton of one on one basketball vs sharing the ball game. We will really get nowhere this way

Olynyk just struggled with contact.  Raptors frontcourt is really physical.  Psycho T gets away with a lot and so does Jonas.

I'm confident he will figure that out pretty quick here.  And once he does the boards should come.

Also probably some jitters at home playing his first game.

Agreed.

To add to that I think playing next to Sully also hides a lot of Olynyk's current deficiencies. They are surprisingly very complimentary despite their overall lack of athleticism.







Gotta say: PLAYED WITHOUT SULLY and still give the Raps a run for their money, I personally am very psyched about this roster.

Love it.  I was worried we'd win tonight seeing as Toronto is almost as bad as we are.  Glad to see we pulled out the loss.  Good production from Jeff, Humph and Bass will go a long way towards boosting their trade value. 

A- ... only complaint is that Wallace and Lee didn't do enough to help remove the "contract albatross" label.   Those guys need to start contributing if we're ever going to rid ourselves of them.

Bonus... 76ers won tonight!  We're well on our way towards finishing at the bottom of the standings.  Woo!

boss please re read that last statement... The raptors will probably be fighting for the 8th seed in the east, IF everything plays out perfect... Im hoping your psyched because our team will be fighting for the lottery, and not psyched because you think us in a battle of a game but basically were down 10 towards the end of the game vs THE RAPTORS.. is a bright sign?

I am happy to see our guys fighting out there. I do agree with King curtis on that note.

But on another note, Jeff green can be a 25 ppg scorer in this league he just needs to demand the ball and drive to the basket, his length is ridiculous and his athleticsm is aswell. We are due for a long year, but with a good lottery pick, A healthy rondo, a couple moves, and a big free agency pickup, I like our team competing for the title in the next 2-3 years.
