Boston Celtics Preseason Schedule

The Celtics will open up next year much in the same way they opened up 2007-2008, overseas. At that time it was a great bonding experience for the newly minted Big 3 to come together and develop the chemistry that would propel them to their only Championship together. Perhaps this trip can help Pierce, Garnett, and Rondo get accustomed to their new teammates and re-acquainted with their old teammates (some of which didn't get to spend enough time with the team last year due to injuries).

See the full schedule after the break.
