BSJ Weekend Briefing 11.08.19: Celtics give Kemba a happy Charlotte return, Bruins in Detroit

Good morning!

A few random thoughts while I wonder if Jon Gruden is still giving out high-fives in the Black Hole...

• Good team win by the Celtics down in Charlotte as Kemba Walker got to have the last laugh at his former team.


• B-Robb makes the case that Javonte Green could be pushing for a regular role


• Bruins look to start a new winning streak in Detroit. Depressing what's happened to that team.


• Conor looks at whether or not a McAvoy-Grzelcyk pairing could be of use.


• Zach Senyshyn is back


• Raiders held on to beat the Chargers last night to improve to 5-4


• Weird game as most Thursdays are.


• Philip Rivers was absolutely terrible in the game. And that's against a bad defense that everyone passes and scores on.


• This feels like it could be it for him. Wonder if they have No. 12 free to give out.


• Gruden got lucky the Chargers didn't gain one single yard or else we'd be talking about his timeout with 1:06 left.


• Raiders are 5-4 now and could make the AFC West interesting. They play at KC on Dec. 1. Don't think they can stop that offense.
