Big Picture Questions Heading Into The Celtics' Opening Preseason Game

One last big picture look before we get our first taste of 2025-26 Celtics basketball

(You can also listen on Apple and Spotify)

We’re just one day away from the Celtics’ preseason opener against the Memphis Grizzlies — our first real look at this new roster in action. And with that comes a few burning questions we’ve all been waiting to see answered:

In today’s episode of The Celtics Chronicle podcast, I was joined by Billy Calabrese — who is a regular co-host on Tuesdays and Thursdays — to dive into some of the bigger picture questions as we head into the Memphis game.

We hit on:

  • A potentially new-look offense and how that could look/work

  • The roster battles, and potential rotation questions — double big? Pritchard starting?

  • Building in Mazzulla’s image — carrying on from yesterday’s newsletter

  • The trade-off between developing talent and maximizing “ready-now” guys like Jaylen Brown and Derrick White

  • And, whether the Celtics should hit up the New York Knicks about Pacome Dadiet, who is rumored to be available at pennies on the dollar.

It’s been a while since I was committed to the podcast/YouTube space, so I’m glad to be back and ready to grow alongside this Celtics team!
