Every single stat of Kyrie's is down last year.. Scoring down.. FG% down.. 3P% down.. Assists per Game down.. Rebounds per game down.. and I keep hearing he is putting up Westbrooke numbers no he is not.. He is playing great ahh no not really he is playing ok and the team kept the streak alive without him even playing.. Brad Stevens deserves the credit for this they are playing great team basketball Kyrie deserves credit for buying in but he is not exactly lighting the world on fire...

BOS is set for the next decade w AINGE/STEVENS. they're SAS East.


I doubt they last as long as SAS 20 years is crazy but yeah could be in the top 4 teams in the east for many years.. 76ers will overtake them though as Simmons and Embid are better than them.. I think LBJ may even go to the 76ers can you imagine.. Simmons Embid, LBJ, Fultz, Coverington.. Hell if they can create some cap space and trade for PG13 imagine that..

Cool story, bro. How many of them have won 13 games in a row without one of their all-stars for the season and are fielding 11 new players to the system? Feel free to respond to this directly any time now.


You realize when he says "Team of the future" he's not talking about right now, right?

I didn't think I had to go into the combination of vets and young talent, a top-5 coach, a top-5 GM, the best player from the 2017 draft, etc. Color me embarrassed. I didn't realize how awful the Celtics are set up.

Here in Toronto, we have been spinning our wheels with the same damn garbage core for many years despite total underwhelming results.

Only thing that matters for Toronto is making the post-season as much as possible they rather not take chances if it meant sacrificing a playoff team.

until boston wins a ring with that core they are no different than the raptors. you worried bout a core but if that celtics team didt trade for kyrie irving and horford last year they aint no team of no future. just another team with young players.

kerr just making storylines ahead of their game anyways but i guess you fans always eat it up.
