Celtics Lab 147: Breaking down Boston’s season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers with Ky Carlin

The Boston Celtics kick off their 2022-23 season against the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday, Oct. 18 at TD Garden. The game marks the start of the Celtics long journey (hopefully) back to the NBA Finals.

Long before that might happen, however, they will need to play each of the 82 games on the schedule, starting with the new and improved Sixers. They have added PJ Tucker, Anthony Melton, Montrezl Harrell and Danuel House to a leading Most Valuable Player candidate Joel Embiid, a healthy, in-shape James Harden and rising young star Tyrese Maxey.

Will a Celtics roster missing Robert Williams III and just regaining Luke Kornet from a sprained ankle be ready to take on Philly’s frontcourt? Will Boston’s new additions be enough to counter a healthy Harden and Maxey alongside Embiid?
