2012-2013 NBA Regular Season Thread

Thanks for the clarification, Nola.

Doc Rivers is misusing Jason Terry to an insulting degree. Terry is not a starter. He is a spark off the bench who gets starter minutes. Start Courtney Lee to defend bigger two guards and bring scoring off the bench in Terry and Sullinger. Doc is a great coach, so you can call me baffled by what he's doing with Jason Terry.

Also, Jeff Green isn't a bench player, I don't think. Why not just start him at the four? This starting lineup can't be that difficult to figure out.

jeff is a bench player imo. always has been. hes too much of a tweener to start at the 3 or 4

The way I see it, the Celtics suck rebounding, anyway. Might as well have another scoring threat out there.

I think Boston's starting lineup by the end of the season will be better, especially when Bradley comes back. Speaking of Bradley, was his shoulder that shredded? I can't believe he isn't suiting up yet.

Rondo-Lee
Bradley-Terry
Pierce-Green
Bass-Sullinger (ideally Sullinger starts, eventually, because he eventually ups their rebound numbers).
Garnett/Wilcox

The Celtics could be 10 deep by the time the playoffs roll around. I can't wait for people to not take this team seriously again only to have them surprise everybody, again.

We also can't forget what Barbosa can do if he gets going, but he plays less defense than Jet, and that's not a good thing.

 

[Pugz]

green needs to come off the bench for scoring.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Yeah, I'm only suggesting they start him for right now. But by the way they're playing today, maybe this is the lineup to move forward with until they're healthy.

i wasnt expecting this big of a lead by either team, especially boston.

I just started watching after halftime but this game is awful lol

 

[BwareDWare94]

I've already said it, but Brooklyn's arena looks amazing. The way the court is designed makes it look small and cramped and more personal. Reminds me of playing in the "barns" I did in high school with three bleachers on each side and the crowd right on top of you. Bigger and more wide open is most certainly not better with basketball. I know it's just an illusion, in this case, but the effect is definitely there.

I like Barclays Center but everything else is hideous.

When is Shumpert's return? Do they have a timetable.

When is Shumpert's return? Do they have a timetable.

I wish I was here for bware's Celts comments


Court is playing terribly this year, and we need the scoring, so JET starts
Doc sat Bass for JCollins because he wants KG at the 4. So why would we start Green at the 4?


We will look at acquiring a C at the deadline, but for now we will use what we got. Bradley comes back in like 2 weeks and he will start at SG then.


Our rotation will be:

C: Collins-Sullinger-Garnett
PF: Garnett-Bass-Green
SF: Pierce-Green
SG: Bradley- Terry- Lee
PG: Rondo- Barbosa

The Celtics got Jason Collins? Lmao when did this happen

 

[Mexi]

i think the lakers could beat memphis in round 1
i think MAYBE they could beat the clippers.

but wouldnt bet on them beating OKC or the spurs

 

[Mexi]

btw i hate those white laker jerseys. the knicks and them just looked awful together

i like the heat and thunder though. the other 2 games should be ok. definitely like Houston's grey
