He was big again. Wouldn’t be a close game if Brown played and Morris didn’t have the game of his life against his old team. The real key is Kemba is out there smiling and having fun and it’s infectious. The other Celtics are enjoying playing the game. Last year they were all miserable.

Losing their center in the offseason is regrettable. They have all the other pieces.

True - state of mind is key. I see it here - you have the positive people and the negative ones who eventually wake up in their parent’s dismal basement at some point during the day with the goal to “Dislike” every Chief post going back 8 years to drive down my aggregate “Like” count.
Chief has never used “Dislike”, there are too many positives going on in my life that I am blessed and thankful about. It’s sad when someone is so down on themselves, where that exercise becomes their existence.
In contrast, Chief’s exhibition game Briefs is breaking all kinds of view records for a preseason game - and Views are what support the BY. I am humbled by all the interest about UConn MBB and the toughest part is what to leave out. It’s interesting the things that I noticed that others felt should be included and other things that did not hit Chief’s radar that perhaps should be included. So it’s definitely a continuous improvement exercise for Chief.
I got to know Kemba’s mom well and she just lights up a room. She has such a nice way about her and is always so kind, happy and smiling. She is one of those people, that leaves you happier than you were before you talk to her. There’s no negativity in her and her kindness is so sincere. So that infectiousness is real. Kemba is the same way.

Beat the Raps & Bucks too, tho.
Barring injuries I think this team lands somewhere between 55-60 wins, and 3rd in the East.
EDIT: And I'll say here that Hayward is passing the eye test after last year's miserable season. He's up to about 12 drives per game after only 5.7 last year, and he's finishing off a ton of plays either at the hoop or by finding cutters. He's not quite back to his pre-injury, All-Star form, but he's closing in on it.

Quit being so needy. So what if one guy isn't playing along?

I always thought it was crazy that people didn't give him benefit of the doubt from such a gruesome injury. Never mind fitness or rust, the mind games that plays with your head, I can't imagine.
People wrote him off quick. I guess that's the hot take world we live in today.

LOL - it doesn’t impact me other than its like seeing a gruesome accident until I think about how his psychological state might play out. The likes or dislikes in real time when I post stuff is part of the deal but someone going back 8 years to dislike every one of my 13,000 posts is frankly creepy and speaks to a psychological disorder. What you don’t see that I do is it’s a very time consuming effort, that takes hours each day. For that to be your day’s focus is frankly rather alarming and speaks to an illness. First, I feel concern for his sanity, then my family’s security and posters wonder why Chief has always been so private about my identity. What does he do with himself when he is done with that task? What’s his insanity outlet then?

Meh, I'm 43 and I think that's the world we've lived in our entire lives. And I get why folks were frustrated with what seemed like some force-feeding last year, which probably did stunt Tatum and Brown to an extent.
That said, we all know the biggest problem with that team is in Brooklyn now.
Anyway, it's nice to be wildly in love with the Celtics again. Here's hoping they end up with Danny Hamilton or Jalen on a two-way contract at some point.

Typical missing the forest for the trees. The BY is minimum 82.37% hot takes.

So Mrs. Fleud (wifey) is a big Kemba fan. He's her favorite UConn men's bb player. Told her the Celtics were on tv and she was thrilled to watch the game. A part of me wants to record her reactions to the game letting her know I'm not the only one that gets overly excited about teams I root for. The other part knows that's hitting the danger Will Robinson button.

The part of you that didn't record her is the smarter part, Mr. Fled!

Posting 13,000 times in 8 years on a UConn athletics forum is a psychological disorder as well. That averages out to over 4 posts per day, every day for almost a decade.
I worry also for your family.

No need to lump in the rest of us.
in fairness, 50% of my posts were game threads and mojo.

No, it’s an illness - A joke is in and out and funny. He speeds hours on this meaningless task each day, that seems to preoccupy him. It’s sad. If you want to be funny post something entertaining. I am very concerned about his mental and emotional stability.

You should worry about talking to high school boys at urinals more than anything.

You must be math challenged. That’s about 4 posts per day in real time over 8 years, discussing current topics in UConn sports. That’s less than many here post. Comparing that to a psychopathic type behavior of spending hours each day disliking posts from one person without reading them about games played 8 years ago . The later is a strange obsession not a joke.

IDK - he smiles and exchanges pleasantries when we have run into each other on the circuit since. You need to get out more.

That’s normal and consistent behavior (at least on here). Comparing that to daily spending hours Disliking posts from years ago without reading them - is clearly being in denial about someone’s fragile mental state.

Chief is absolutely rattled right now.

Why do you think that’s unusual when scores here do it (post 4 times a day on current topics). Yet, it makes complete sense to you to Dislike hundreds of posts a day from years ago without reading them. How many people do that? Do the math to determine the anomaly. Math class is over!
