Herro on Holiday is a problem imo. Holiday is far too strong and will simply take him the post and abuse him. Holiday is not quick enough that I'd be worried about having JJJ on him. Hope Spo goes with that instead, at least to start the game.

Gotta feel for the younger fans that weren’t around for the Jordan years. Basketball hell.
Especially the ones that saw D.Rose before his knees failed him badly. Sheesh man that's tough AF to deal with.

Let's pray that Tatum forgot how to shoot a basketball over the last 10+ days, and we have a chance!

You don't think the Celtics have HeatTSD (PTSD) from the past few playoffs series' against them? Even the one they won?

Hey I liked our chances vs them if Jimmy was playing. But without Jimmy this is not gonna end well for us. Just my opinion. I think a loss tonight and grabbing a lottery pick is a better outcome than beating a crappy bulls team, celebrating that, then getting beat down in the first round and getting no lottery pick. This season is over imo and it could’ve ended with at minimum a lottery pick. Now we get nothing but some phantom “experience”

Going to need to assert Bam from the get go offensively vs Boston though. He’s our best matchup. I wonder if we try put Niko on KP and let Bam guard Brown.
Probably Bam on Tatum then Caleb on Brown
Jacquez on White and Herro on Holiday
Herro on White
Jacquez on Holiday
JK no raciss lol

The series will give us many teaching moments. A peak into what life without Jimmy is like. Herro having top responsibility, Jaime as a Jimmy clone. The most meaningful of reps (playoff ball) against top quality opposition for Herro, Niko, Jaime. Bam must be top 3 at minimum in shots. There's no pressure on them and no one should kill them regardless what happens cause they are seriously overmatched.

Bam with 9 points? What the heck is going on? Why matter asking for supermax contract if he can’t be bother to put up superstar number? I don’t know if playing defense on Derozan is the contributing for his offense limitations but he should be able to contribute great defenses and great offenses like young LeBron James could.

Correction: 13 points and 4 rebounds. In 32 minutes.

Bam is a solid NBA player but no superstar. I wouldn't give him a max deal. We already made the Whiteside mistake once. No need to do it again

at least Bam made a 3 in this game.

I believe we already gave him the max, so that ship has sailed. However he should NOT be untouchable. If we can get a real star for him or a load of picks, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be considered. We don't have any other player that could obtain the type of player that we'd need to cover his limitations, so we should consider moving from him if the opportunity presents itself. Not that I think we will. The FO is content to stay the course as long as we continue to make the playoffs and then even overchieve. But we should consider it.
