TWO BITS...FOUR BITS

Saw two quarters of our Celtics in Italy on TV,
Of the pre gioco di stagione--sounds better in Italian to me!
Olynyk, Jerebko and David Lee as kids grew late,
This would explain why their passing skills are great!

Unselfish play by Hunter, his first NBA block had he;
Evan Turner didn't play--he has a strained knee.
KO running the floor, heads up play by IT,
Cs up 28 at the end of Q3.

Cs pick-and-roll made Amir Johnson look good,
Teams don't use that old-school play--looks like we should!
Cs, the best Bench in the League; it includes Starters, too,
Every guy wants minutes--fighting for what each can do.

Seems every game we'll have Starters Galore--
Or several 6th Men--for Coach Brad what a chore!
Saw a minute of Smart, crazy on offense and D.
Rozier's learning, there's hope--clearly a rookie is he.

PACE AND SPACE is still Coach Brad's rallying cry--
The new guys (rookies plus) are all in: learning how and why!
Jordan Mickey is tough! I have trouble with his name,
I'll know he's not Mickey Jordan by the season's first game.

Rozier can rebound, never throws in the towel,
He flies up the court--gotta stop the offensive foul!
Sully's rebounding well, he just knows where to go--
Hope his conditioning's working--he does NOT seem slow.

Cs young guys will be in Maine, they'll learn to play Ball!
The Maine Red Claws will be great! They should win it all!
Cs were impressive (IT, AB, Smart, DLee....), won by 33.
Watching European crowds applaud is fun to see.

¡Hasta Pronto! Cs are off to Madrid--
Hope the Cs keep rolling like tonight they did!
