Leon better call Phoenix and package Fournier with Randle or something.

The Celts clobbered the Suns, in Phoenix, and with Chris Paul. 125-98

Nic Batum still putting up solid numbers. 16 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 6-11 FGs, 4-9 3FGs

The Celtics have to be heavy favorites to win the title. I wonder if Billy King is going to be at their championship parade.

He is and he’ll be drafted the same range as both IQ and Bones, though IQ got drafted higher and Smith might get drafted higher than both.

How is he close have you seen the percentages come on my dude. If you think Smith is the same type of shooter than Bones is I dont know what to say. You must think Im speaking of Draft Range when Im talking about shooting range.

Smith is not a clone or a variant of Bones.

Basically what you saying is every skinny guard with twist are the same.

IQ cant even handle the rock like the other two.

Bones is Bones...

Variants and types don’t make the clones fam.
I never said they’re exactly the same.
If you don’t understand how they’re comparable, idk what to tell you.

Yep..and I knew the "oh such and such is better" comments would come. But still when these players are in the groove they look and play very similarly. There is such a thing a nuance.

Tatum gets most of the attention on the Celtics (rightfully so) but Jaylen Brown is having a career year as well. this is the best duo in the league

Not after Scott Perry gives Fournier his 4 year extension

I think that's true. I'm curious what Bane/Ja is gonna look like when everyone is healthy. But, biases against the Cs aside, I had that sense that Brown and Tatum were going to come back with a renewed sense of purpose after finding out what the finals stage is about. Which is what was behind my trade with Smash.

Jaylen Brown should be our #1 target in the 2024 off-season. Gotta put ourselves in position to be able to make a compelling offer... Basically, we have to shed RJ to have the cap room...

JB / Grimes / JB is a great 1-2-3...
