Well Celtics fans, Preseason will officially begin on Friday in Aby Dhabi where they will play on Friday and on Sunday against the former overrated Champions.

JB said he wants to play.

4 Things I want to see

1.   How will our center rotation perform against arguably the best offensive center in the world.
2.   Is  Lonnie Walker a hold, pass or fold.  Is he a switchable guy on defense and can he set screens and pass on offense to his teammates.
3.   How will 1st round pick Baylor Scheierman do on the varsity team and can Anton Watson really play PF.
4.   How far along on offense is Jayden Springer.  Was his 23 point outing in the SL a fluke?

I am seeing that the Friday's game will be on NBATV at 12 PM EST and at 10 AM EST on Sunday the 6th.

I forgot all about time difference. Have plans for Friday during the day. I see from the guide on television that you are right, 11 on NBA/TV FRIDAY. I will tape it. Too bad, I a so ready for some basketball, but they will sitting alot of top players after first quarter, I think

Just think. You can tape the game without using a VHS recorder...lol. yep..they probably give the starters enough minutes to break a sweat.

Wow

The Nuggets look pretty lean on the depth chart.

Russell Westbrook is their top rotation guy. Last year they lost Bruce Brown to FA and this off season they lose KCP and BU PG Reggie Jackson.

It took Denver decades on top of decades to win their first NBA title and they did not have the appetite to run it back at least for one more year.

I can see a 4th place finish for them this season with OKC at the top and Sota or Dallas at #2, 3.

The NBA tax penalties are clearly designs to keep teams from achieving multiple championship runs.

After this season Celtics fans may also be crying the blues!

My son keeps telling me I better enjoy this team while they are together because at some point someone is going. This is a shame after watching years of Russ, Sam, KC, Johnny, Satch togethr. I am sure I am leaving some one off. What I am getting at is, they stayed together for a long, long time. To think that someone vital to this team could be moved because the league says so drives me nuts

Walsh with 25 minutes.  High scorer Pritchard with 21 points in 24 minutes.
