This Nets starting 5 should do pretty well tonight. If the starters play enough minutes, I can't see them losing. Anyone at backup PG can do what a one legged Vasquez did 2 nights ago.
Horfold is great but not that fast.
IT cannot guard Lin so if Lin just drives and owns him IT has to hide on 6 foot 7 Bojan? Game over.
Lin can stick IT on the other end. A bradley not a great enough scorer to torch Bojan who will play good team defense and give up a few buckets but own IT on the other end.
Oh god, we have to listen to tommy heinsohn lol
I couldn't stand Heinsohn when he PLAYED!!!
Kilpatrick in the lineup. Btw Tommy is annoying
Really not crazy about how we're using Lopez I have a feeling he’s not going to be on the team by the trade deadline anyway..
That's what the Boston announcers said too
Listening to Heinson is baddddddd
Arrogant, cocky dude when he played. Bill Russell or Jungle Jim Loscutof should have taught him some humility back then!
I agree Probably THE most biased crew in all pro sports. Thinking to watch it on mute.
Smart comes in the game and everything changes
Still can't believe we have to give this team our pick What a tragedy
Celtics more athletic and tenacious. Nets not able to move the ball and then look lost. Bradley presses Whitehead and makes him look bad. No time left to work the ball. Boston’s hands in all the passing lanes. They are well coached and athletic and capable.
Makes me sick to admit it but the Cs are a good team and very well coached. 1 Key player away from being legit contenders for a title IMO.
Chances are they will get a star with (our) plethora of picks.
Definitely one of the worst broadcasting teams I have ever heard. They don’t even commentate on the nets possessions. Pitiful
Like 2 old drunk guys in bar
I would rather listen to drunk guys They’re entertaining at least
We are watching a FAR superior team. Quick, Athletic, Good Shooters, Smart, Disciplined.
Who have been together much longer than Nets
Yes, and also more talented by far as in 12 deep.
These Celtics are so quick and athletic
Refs gotta be working for Boston. Can’t understand why they were debating about that Kilpatrick and 1
Lopez just got himself traded Blocked twice by stiff Zeller
These Commentators The most smug, biased, and self-centered crew I’ve ever heard. They don’t even comment on anything, besides "heh, yeah that was an offensive foul. Sure."
They sure are pushing the homey button hard
Celtics look much sharper tonight & locked in. it's a good preseason test for the Nets
So many TOs. Boston has upped their defensive intensity since last game.
Coach Brad Stevens is smart. He figured out he needs more speed on the court to beat the Nets. Scola & others looking predictably slow because of it on both ends.
Lopez gets hacked on his second shot Announcers call it great defense… Absolutely embarrassing. Now I know why Boston fans are so pitifully biased.
Celtics D is really really good you can't blame them from the bad offense.
The thing that prolly makes me upset the most is that Boston players are straight up toying with the nets right now. All I have to say to the nets right now is that REMEMBER THEM. And use it for fuel...
DIdn't expect Stevens to bring in Marcus SMart and go with the 3 guard lineup tonight and keep that up with Rozier to combat the Net's bigger but slow as molasses lineup. Scola looked like a traffic cone tonight at times.
These refs have apparently never heard of blocking shots or the rule of verticality or that basketball is a contact sport lol
Lol just realized opening night is Boston vs nets?? Yikes.
IT with 19 points. Ouch!
Celtics playing their bench in the second half lol
Good to see us taking advantage of their bench unit. No excuse to be not executing with these guys on the floor.
Boston is playing their 2nd unit vs. Our starters. Embarrassing. They have no respect for us, nor should they.
We were down 2 with the starters and 4 minutes later are down 9 again. This is where a coach should call a timeout and tell them their all scrubs.
Yuck. We're letting Partynextdoor...I mean James Young go off. These bench scrubs suck.
Our bench losing to their 3rd stringers.
Talks about Jaylen Brown being rookie of the year? What the hell are they smoking?
It is so obnoxious how deep Boston is
Wish we could have gotten Jordan Mickey instead of CMC
celtics cheerleaders got better looking they used to look God awful.
This whole unit needs to be cut right after this game.
Calm down...BOSTON IS PLAYING TOP 3 DEFENSE. … just Calm down and enjoy the PRESEASON.
Celtics will be the 3rd best in the East.
Don't we open against the Celtics? I know that if there are any games circled in the calendar for Celtics management it’s the 4 against us

It's so funny how much they keep whining about our announcers, but I was watching the Brooklyn feed when we played against them last week and instead of talking about basketball, their announcers spent a considerable deal of time talking about how it was funny how Brook Lopez's first name and Jeremy Lin's last name make up the word "BROOK-LIN" and they spent the next few minutes trying to come up with different combinations of random names that would make up the cities' names for the other teams. I wanted to shoot myself in the head! lol
