It's going be so much sweeter when the underdog C's dispatch the superteam Nets and Lakers on our way to banner 18.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

That's good. Drummond would've only hindered Kornet's rise to superstardom.

I believe you are experienced enough to take these kinds of statements with a grain of salt. Not that he doesn't care but drawing conclusions that he's now some die hard, bleed green Celtic for life is a bit naive.


Oh for sure, but the rationale behind some of the people who say he doesn’t love being a Celtics player are ridiculous. “He’s always wearing St Louis hats!!!”, and stuff of the like.

There is a lot more evidence that he loves it here, rather than the other end of it. And I’m one of the people who is open about the possibility of him leaving to form a super friend team in the future, just not because he wears hats of other cities teams.

So we lost two dudes and one wasn't a big one. Danny should retire.

We are one Oto Porter buyout away from finally having a good bench of

Prichard 1
Fournier 2/3
Porter 3/4
Thompson 5

9 man rotation, possibly 10 if Langford ever returns.

My goals this year are to get the 4 seed and beat Philly in round 2.

The Nets would smoke us in 4, but nothing would make me happier than beating Philly again in the playoffs

Drummond watched Kornet vs. OKC and changed his mind.

What superteam will Otto Porter join? They need to put a limit on how many guys these superteams like BKN and LAL can sign after being released.

What's going on with Ellington? Is he being bought out?
Good assessment:

The lakers are a chance to win a ring and it’s a place to play with bron so it makes sense but it also could be a failure for him personally. If bron misses a month and then AD still misses 2 weeks or more and they lose games in the process I’m not sure how he’s gonna increase his value.

And then when those guys return it’s expected for them to make the finals

In all honesty, seeing Time Lord dominate probably caused him to re evaluate

Interesting hindsight tidbit Gorden Hayward got off to a blazing start, post all star game in 9 games here are his stats in 32 MPG
REB AST BLK STL PF TO PTS
6.9 4.9 0.2 1.0 1.7 2.6 14.2

His scoring started dipping Mid February since 2/8 he has scored over 20 points 5 times and less then 15 8 times. Rebounding and assist numbers are still great.

Annoyed on Drummond. He would have been goodhere.

Ainge did a decent job at the deadline getting shooting. But We need to hit on Moe or Kornet here down the stretch as the third big man I like both of their shooting, and that balances the roster and gives us more size and shooting. But, we needed Drummond.
