Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big story line. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.
NBA TV will have a schedule special tomorrow night at 6pm ET so look for the Celtics official schedule to be released right around then.

Yep, this is today’s “big story”. In a day devoid of any other type of major Celtics news, we find out that tonight we’ll get a look at the green team’s 2015-16 schedule. Not sure when the team will unleash the Celts full schedule, but you may be better off waiting on that. Reason being, NBATV’s schedule is geared towards announcing the marquee games. I.E. Christmas Day, finals rematches etc.
The folks over at CBS Sports have a few tidbits that have reportedly leaked prior to tonight’s show:
The Oklahoma City Thunder will reportedly host the Chicago Bulls on Christmas Day.
The Thunder will also host the San Antonio Spurs for their season opener.
We’ll see a battle for Los Angeles on Christmas as the Los Angeles Clippers “visit” the Los Angeles Lakers on the holiday.
The Lakers will also play at home on New Year’s Eve against the Philadelphia 76ers.
There is an NBA Finals rematch on Christmas with the Golden State Warriors hosting the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans will get prime-time promotion on Christmas with their game against the Miami Heat in South Florida.
Lats year Boston had a whopping four games that were scheduled for national tv, but who knows-with their gutsy regular season finish and playoff appearance, things could change. But I doubt it. Put on NBAtv at 6pm EST to check out the schedule release show.
Page 2: Sully posts some more weight loss pics
Jay King put together a short post that features what appear to be a couple of “before & after” shots from Sully’s weight gain project:
The summer of shirtless Jared Sullinger photos continued Tuesday night — and apparently, the Boston Celtics big man wants the public to know he’s shedding weight.
On Twitter, Sullinger posted what appear to be two sets of before and after pictures showing his weight loss over the last two months:
