Globe Krzyzewski takes it easy before opener
All eyes are on US-China basketball matchup
Europe can reach for stars
FL's Take: Don't miss the little tidbit at the bottom about Clifford Ray working with Patrick O'Bryant. This is good news. If anyone can bring out this kid's potential is it Clifford Ray. With Bill Walker and POB both reported to be working out on a regular basis, things are looking up.

Celtics 17 Back up small forward by committee
FL's Take: With Posey gone, this seems to be the big question about the Celtics. Who will back up the small forward spot. Right now, it does seem as though it will be by committee. I think the back up center will be similar with O'Bryant, KG, Powe and Big Baby all being shifted to that position depending on the matchups.

Milford Daily News Exciting times here in the hub
FL's Take: Exciting times indeed. It feels like the good old days with 25 national TV appearances. I never had League Pass back in the '80's but they had enough of the Celtics games on national TV that I didn't feel all that deprived.
Hartford Courant Scenes from the Jim Calhoun celebrity classic charity all star game
FL's Take: At least we know Ray Allen is thinking basketball. It is going to be hard enough to repeat with all of the improvements to Eastern teams, but if our stars aren't in shape coming into camp, we don't have a chance.
