Shai can actually be a fun player to watch if he cuts down some of his foul baiting tbh...hope he cuts it down because it can be extremely annoying to watch at times.

I don’t watch them night in and out but they have two solid swings with Chet before big money kicks in. If they find those finals either season (if not both/win) then hopefully ownership buckles up this time around. This team has too much future.
But they could also draft 26 seven footers over the next few summers and see what happens.
Chet's phsyical build and injury histoy alone should mean that it that's the only two options, smart's money is on keeping J-Dub
It’s feasible to keep them both for four or so more seasons without a ton of issues.
The picks allow for swapping out cost controlled role players.
Yeah I see what you mean, keep all 3 and switch out the rest of the roster and for MLE, minimums….

Re: Wednesday 3/12 NBA Game Thread
+19 free throws for the most physical defense in the NBA, yet Boston is in foul trouble?
I mean, after the OKC Denver back to back went in Jokics favor, it was obvious how tonight was gonna go.
Literally predicted a 5 point win with +10 FT discrepancy for OKC. I was wrong XD
One thing that's clear this week, OKC certainly isnt winning a ring this year.

Tough choice but a 6"8 wing with handles who can guard 1-5 while giving you 20 a night is invaluable. Then you factor in Chet's injury concerns and that seals it for me..
I don't know, you guys obviously watch them more than I do, and it's a very good point about his injury history. But it's probably a lot easier to find a player of Williams' profile than Holmgren's. Tonight being a perfect example. He's murdering Boston.
Better yet, maybe the owner should finally pay up and do whatever he can to keep the core of this team together. For Presti to build a generational team, have it blow up and then put a squad of this caliber together should be rewarded.

Re: Wednesday 3/12 NBA Game Thread
If Jaylen Brown didn't stink it up tonight we would have won.
20 less Free Throws is absolutely disgraceful and corrupt officiating.
Some shady Tulsa King activity going on with the bookies and refs ?
I enjoy the Celtics physical brutal defence, the fact is SGA and Chet as soft as butter (mentally and physically) and they will be exposed again come the playoffs.

You aren't going to get free throws if you shoot 70% of your shots from 3.
You are going to give up free throws if your players foul a bunch.

Re: Wednesday 3/12 NBA Game Thread
This is easily the C’s worst matchup in the West yet I would still take OKC over GS or LA. Take that how you will.

Conversely, OKC is doing this on the road without their second-best player.
