Celtics only have two bigs on this team (Tacko the human victory cigar doesn't count) and one of them isn't reliable.

This is going to be a complete disaster rebounding unless gets a couple of guys over 6'8. I know Kanter had his moments but he could legit rebound. I don't know why they traded him.

We just came off an offseason where we lost Kyrie Irving, Al Horford, Terry Rozier, Baynes and Mook and we improved AND made the ECF.

Watch us improve again without Gordo. Lol

Kemba will break. Timelord will break. Tatum and Jaylen will be seeking greener pastures soon. Nesmith and Langford going to mutually shred each other's ACLs in their first scrimmage. Smart's going to set new Celtics records for three pointers.

And I'm a delusional pinkhat for imagining there might be a single positive development.

We all know Celtics will be fine it’s just everything going wrong for them so far.

Agreed.

I prefer not to compound it by imagining that everything will continue to go wrong in perpetuity.

Timelord gonna blow up this season. You heard it here first.


Stevens has to have the balls to let him play through mistakes. Not sure it’ll happen. Stevens would rather play it safe with players like Grant.

Still waiting for someone to explain the error he made today. My understanding is that free agents can sign where ever they like.


Reports are that Hayward wanted to go to Indiana and Indiana was willing to deal Turner. Ainge could have moved Turner for an asset or 2, if he didn't want him.
Except he then decided to take 20 million more than the pacers would pay. Stop by blaming. Like people who have a pet die of cancer and sue the vet

Remember when we were told James Harden has too much baggage and that we didn't want him in green?

Lol, good times...

Good assessment:

Stop it. He is horrendous.

Giles, Baynes, Tristan or Ibaka. Ibaka will most likely get more than MLE, so it's Giles, Baynes, Tristan or bust...

Man things were so exciting not too long ago. We though we were getting Jrue, Hayward was opting in for a trade. We even thought we could get Harden. Look at us now, begging for scraps. HAHAHAHA

So in this analogy which player(s) are gonna be our Michigan or Georgia or Pennsylvania to change the outcome?
