Well, I already have my Tivo set up for the ring ceremony. I can not wait to see the look on LeBron's face as one by one the C's walk by him and get their rings. In my opinion if the Celtics stay healthy and Powe can step up and take Posey's spot off the bench than the Celtics can be just as successful as last year. However, they will have to be better than last year as the East has gotten mroe competitive. With LeBron and DH12 getting better every year, I expect more competition out of them. The Sixers will not be push overs this year either and the Pistons are contenders every year. So...who's pumped for Tuesday night?

I'm gunning for Tony Allen to recieve the first Tommy point of the season. Mainly because he's got alot to prove on both ends of the court, and by the looks he's the Celts sixth man. Filling the void from Posey is going to be a tough task, but I think he's up for the challenge.

dont sleep on giddens and pruitt this year boys..... im psyched to see if rondo can step his game up a little more. last year was great but he can do more! ###### i remember 2 years ago wen they were giving tickets away. i want to like 15 games and paid about 20 bucks for all of them combined. LOL. I had to sit through a buncha guys younger then me getting romped on but I saw some good guys form other teams. Alotttta stuff changes in 2 years though =)

i like tony alot, his upside is huge and we need a guy to step up into that role. Id like to see him and powe step up big time this year and hopefully giddens as well.

i like giddens, but he is behind a few guys on the bench, not saying he won't play well, just think he has something to prove. As for pruitt, he's benhind rondo, house, and cassell, enough said. i love the fact that pierce came in in the best shape of his life, 10-15 punds less than last season. he is really elevating himself to a celtic great. another ring or two will really solidify him as one of the best.

under 1 hour to game time!

[sebredsox24]

30 minutes! got my lucky KG Jersey on(13-0 last year, including 3-0 in playoffs)!

[sebredsox24]

Man Paul was crying before he even walked up, that was incredible! That's a moment I'm never gonna forget(especially because i recorded it )The quest for banner #18 starts in 10 minutes.

Pierce was quite emotional, that's a sign of a player that appreciates what he's done. The champions jerseys are nice with the gold trim, and those patches on right shoulder are sick.

Sick rings btw, 92 diamonds and 3 Emeralds.

[sebredsox24]

those rings look incredible and yes the jerseys are sick. as for the first half, ithink the celts were still a little awestruck from the ceremony, but they'll come out hot in the 2nd half!

I'm sure the emotion & energy from the ceremony wore them down a bit, but I have confidence they'll straighten it out in the 2nd half.

[sebredsox24]

finish strong boys!

Nice victory last night, great night from Pierce 27pts, 4ast. Rondo also had a smooth night with 14pts & 6ast. Very solid nights from Powe & T. Allen both had double digit scoring. Overall pretty good game.

Yep, the one thing Tony Allen did that really impressed me was when he drove, he had his head up and was in control. He got a lot of charges last year on reckless drives and last night, he was able to get into the paint and either put it in, get fouled, or both. As for Powe, he is just a beast. He goes after every rebound and loose ball. Doc has said time and time again he is one of the most coachable players he has ever had. The guy puts in nonstop effort every game. And The Truth was The Truth

Nice start to the season last night with a solid win over a good team!

I agree about T. Allen, he finally got over that fear in the off season, as for Powe you put it well he's a beast and a very coachable player. Hope he sticks around for many years, he's a big part of there bench.
