What’s he supposed to do? Look at the roster Brad gave him. There’s basically no frontcourt, and four of the five best players are undersized guards. I can’t stand Joe, but it’s not like he’s working with the kind of roster that can cover up his flaws.

Maybe not play Jaylen Brown at center?

might be the perfect tank roster. since we hav literally no size. we'll only beat teams if we shoot lights out which wont happen often.

Nah, there are some truly awful teams in this league that are committed to the tank. We'll end up somewhere in the middle, which is the worst place to be.

In fairness he might be the best center on the roster.

My expectations for this season are very very low if you can tell lol.

This offensive rebound thing... it's already becoming a pattern. Joe can't just sub guys out all year.

I predict that Jaylen and White will be shut down after all star game for reasons.

I like AJ and think he’s number 1 but he doesn’t fit alongside Tatum at all

JB should not try to play thru the hamstring, he is diminished out there and taking development minutes from others

We're used to the Celtics having those 20 point half time scores. :(

People need to stop calling everything trolling. I said White would be inefficient this year and got called a troll.. it’s like people don’t know what White’s numbers actually were before the celtics

Jaylen Brown playing center every night will probably shut him down in a couple weeks. Maybe that’s the goal?
