We can put to rest that bulls__ of Derrick White being some elite player. I told you all this before, the only reason any of these players looked good is due to the Brown/Tatum combo which hid their flaws. Derrick White is back to who he was before the Celtics, inefficient Chuck. Now when Tatum comes back next year and Celtics are contending, we can drop the “Tatum has the best supporting cast bs”. I can’t even imagine what Tatum would do with Bron and Austin Reaves as his cast. Surely make it out the first round. This team goes wherever Tatum and Brown go, simple as that. Every single other person on the roster is replaceable

Wouldn’t trust +\- is my life depended on it. Hugo has been better than that. He does look tired this q though, as he isn’t everywhere.

The dudes. 4-9 FG 2-5 on 3’s , don’t make him the fall guy for this lackluster roster lol. We can’t even grab a fn board

Celtics trade for Trae Young I’m no longer a Celtics fan. Most overrated player in the NBA and is set for a huge payday. No thank you. Trae Young the king of the 36-38 win teams


Trae Young is elite. Atlanta just has a bad front office. Again, you need to start looking at things from a system lens. Derrick White was a bum before Celtics. I’d love to pair Tatum and JB with White however. Or just tank for Peterson

This team is not very good with no way to fix the rebounding issues

Obviously you hate Derrick White.
It's might be really bad for you, when he becomes an All-Star.

We have the worse front court in the NBA right now.
We aren’t winning many games this season unless something changes.

He needs to bring something on the offensive end if he’s going to be a starter though. This groups struggling to score

Neemi (24 minutes), Tillman (12) and Garza (12) could all play in a night. Celtics should keep Boucher at pf they need all the length and size they can get.

70 points scored in 2.5 quarters isn't bad. We've given up 76 though that's not good we're on pace to give up 120
