How is Hugo so bad around the rim?

Talent discrepancy is very obvious in this game

Sorry Walsh, I put all my eggs in your basket, we both are running around like a chicken without it’s head.

Love when Hugo has to go for a chase down

I have asked the same question. A guard that can't dribble or shoot. Yuk. Hal says Walsh is a PF, but the Celtics website lists Walsh as a guard. There are some here who feel they know better than Brad Stevens.

And replace Walsh with whom? There needs tp be 14 players and Walsh is a small contract with experience with the team. He's basically the 14th man at this point. Unless he is in a trade, might as well keep him.

Amari Williams looks like he has the size for the NBA center position... so that's something

They don’t even play Clint Capella, even when we were stacked the last couple years we didn’t have anybody sitting on the bench as good as Clint Capella waiting to play.

I hope some of these guys turn out to be that good in the end, but that’s not fair with the Rockets were able to put together. :lol:

Is that Amari's first NBA bucket?

Say what you want about Jeff Green, but I don’t think we’ve had someone as good as even him getting DNP. Lol

People still swear KD is 7ft, that means Tatum is 6’11 & 1/2!

I would have Waived him, and moved up one the Two-Ways, or signed Charles Bassey.

Hmmm... which 2Way would you chose, if you had to pick? Amari was a 5 year college player, has size, and potentially fills a need even though behind Queta, Garza and Tillman.

He'd be my pick to replace Walsh, as Minott is well ahead of Walsh at this point at that rangy defensive wing spot.

That's who I'd pick too, Amari.
We need another Big; and we have a ton of Wings.

His passing is excellent, too. It was good in college, it was good in Sl, in preseason and in limited mins in the NBA so far.

Really good passing big, reads the floor well, makes pretty advanced passing reads.

Definitely worth developing on a 2-way.

I think he's like 6'10", maybe 6'10.5" or so..

Maybe some nerves..also he's only 19..and in general having good touch on his shots (especially inside the arc) is just not a strength of his - yet.
