Celtics at Wizards

I had a few minutes more than I thought and watched a bit of the Wizards/Celtics game (turned it on right before half-time. I must say, I really do like the Wizards roster. No huge superstars, but a lot of solid young guys and vets. Middleton and McCollum are great vets (both of whom can score) and Johnson, Saar. I like Bagley too (saw him block Maxey like 3 times in a row the other night). Again, I don't think they're going to do anything special this year...maybe not even win 20 games...but they're a solid team that should make most games competitive at least.

Thoughts on the game:

- Wizards uniform. Nice throwback to the Arenas era. Hopefully without the locker room gun play.

- Why do the Celtics have so many bald players?

- Middleton needs to tuck in his shirt. Where's Chris Paul when you need him?

- Good to see Sam "Xenomorph" Cassell coaching

- Why is this guy

on the Celtics?

- Did I say games would be close? Uhh.

- 8 minutes left in the 4th. Turning it off.

MVP of the game: Derrick White. No votes for anyone else.

Knicks at Toronto

I turned this game on in the 3rd. Ugly game. The Knicks had a pretty solid lead when I turned it on but it is so sloppy. Passes are ugly, dribbling is ugly, no one can catch. There is no way a team in the East wins the Championship this year. Maybe if the Celtics get healthy, but they played like trash in last year's playoffs. Collin Murray-Boyles was just murdered under the hoop and no foul call. If that was Luca there would have been seven flagrants and an ejection. Holy crap! A travel was called!! Notorious B13 is nice. We love to see him on a contender. Such a boring game. Knicks better hope Brunson doesn't get injured. Even with KAT, no Brunson = Lottery team. Brunson and Ingram are my MVPs for this game

Rockets at Mavericks

Thoughts: - I'll never understand how professional basketball players can be fat. - Clint Capela's tip off technique is odd -Udoka reminds me of a smaller Suge Knight - There is so much travelling it's ridiculous. Can you really catch the ball, take a step or two, then dribble? -Durant looks like he's wearing hiking boots - Capela really has no skills - I'm so happy Flagg is playing aggressively. So much more fun to watch. Wish Jabari Smith played with a little more fire. - Amen Thompson is a beast...and these entry passes to Anthony Davis are trash - Reed Sheppard is ill Had to turn the game off before half-time. Final awards MVP (in order based on what I watched) 1. Anthony Davis 2. Cooper Flagg 3. Jabari Smith Jr. Buns players of the game: 1. D'Angelo Russell 2. Dwight Powell 3. Clint Capella
