I think you can get a standing room season pass for $15 a game. G1C is a great arena to have standing only tickets, although I'd advocate getting there early to get a spot in the Beer Garden. You can park at the city hall garage for like $5-$10 with a 10 minute walk

I thought Jaylen Brown looked really good yesterday, he’s definitely making a leap this year since there’s a Hayward sized hole in the lineup. Good shooting from him and he was solid on defense, mostly

But that's still what you were doing at the time. Now a new report came out but it doesn't validate you like you seem to think it does.

oh ok as an outsider looking in the whole thing is hilarious but I haven't really seen anything that takes Mirotic's side in any of this, they're either neutral (most of them) or backing up Portis (this and I think a couple more that may have spawned off these same reports). Given the lack of anything actually damning Portis (including the Bulls official statement) it sort of seems pretty obvious that it was going to end up this way, in hindsight.

Like all of the reporting at the time I made that post by Bulls beat reporters was how it was a shoving match. Instgated at the time by Niko. That escalated and Portis finished. Now did Portis overreact. Sure. Yes if it was me he'd be off my team. You can't be out here injuring and giving concussions to already concussion prone players. Especially ones we just signed to a large contract(though that was also something I wouldn't have done) But it was not what I'd personally call a sucker punch or a cheap shot, based off all the reporting I saw as both were engaged in the conflict. Which was my only point. Outside of making a

I agree Brown certainly looks good ESP for his age but I don't think the celtics can have him taking the most shots and have a usage over 30%. Maybe this is a rebuilding year at this point tho.

It's a "give Tatum and Brown as many reps as they can get" season with some occasional Kyrie heroics.

It sucks for Hayward but Boston's going to be fine, they made the playoffs with Evan Turner, Tyler Zeller and Brandon Bass as core pieces like two years ago. I think they're still a top-four seed.

I think they're still a top-four seed. They play in the East, so this takes them from the 2 seed to the 3 or 4 seed. It's less about getting in the playoffs, than it was about hoping Heyward was the guy who would get them past LeBron

We got two great games with storybook endings on the opening night, this is the greatest sport. The Hayward injury is tragic and it got me down, both as a human being and as a fan of the sport. The Celtics were the one team that had a chance of being a threat to the Cavs in the playoffs, and now they're not favorites to make the ECF. I guess Otto Porter could always have a breakout year.

I have an extreme amount of faith in Brad Stevens. And Think Kyrie is underrated(round these parts, casual fans probably overrate him some) . That Boston team will still be a top 3 team in the east. Brad Stevens is a real good coach. And very coaches in the regular season can get teams to massively outperform their talent.

Kyrie Irving has a chance to go nuts and average 30 a game too, which will be fun. I was pretty down on this celtics team to begin with, but not its just a crapshoot. I can see them winning 46 games still, but I can also see them finishing under .500 and being a tire fire. It's gonna be a crap shoot. 3rd seems like a stretch, though. Washington, Toronto, Milwaukee, Charlotte and obviously the Cavs all have pretty decent chances to be better than them.
