Isaiah 41:10 - Al Will Strengthen You and Help You: Official 2016-17 Boston Celtics Season Thread

Zeller & Amir so terrible that Olynyk seems like Dirk in comparison 
After finishing the season ranked 28th in the NBA in long range shooting, hitting on just 33.5 percent of their attempts from beyond the three-point line, Boston has undergone a rapid transformation over the first few weeks of the season. The Celtics have morphed into a squad that is lethal from deep, standing in the top four of the three-point percentage rankings in the NBA while shooting at a tremendous 37.8 percent clip.
While the uptick in efficiency could just be harkened to a shortened sample size, the Celtics have truly evolved in their offensive approach. The central reason behind this improvement is contingent directly on their increased ball movement. This has led to a plethora of open looks behind the arc for the team in each and every game, concluding in more swishes and less long rebounds for the opposing team to corral and begin the fast break with.

Smart's gonna need to have a big game on both sides of the ball. He's gonna be the main one guarding PG-13.

Would really suck if the C's fail to escape Indy with a win. Let's close this out.

No Paul George but we are still without Horford and Crowder so I'll take it. Good to see some unexpected production from guys with Thomas having an off night.
Now we wait til Monday night when AD drops 60 on our bigs.

Rightfully so. He changed the whole energy of the game. I wonder if this will be a breakout season for Young
