Unfair to Gobert IMO, yeah he sucks on offense for sure but he's also so good on defense it doesn't matter. Also Mitchell, despite his struggles, has insane talent.

But if the Celtics let Ingles score 30 freaking points again...

It does matter. I take Al Horford 100x out of 100 over Gobert. The guy is actually talked about as a borderline top 10 player and it drives me nuts. Most over rated player in all of basketball for me and it’s not even close

Put Morris in, Hayward to the bench.

Have the bench run plays for Hayward or set him up to run plays for shots for Rozier/himself off cuts/alley oops.

Morris has earned the starting lineup. I think there may be something to Tatum playing SF and all the success he had doing so last year and him playing PF.

And simply put, Irving/Tatum/Morris are the only players on our team shooting over 40% from 3.


But man, last night it was painfully obvious when you see him IN PERSON. **** Hayward is slow out there. And has no lift.

Let's just get off to good starts and win 75% of the game by having winning starters. We can figure out the rest, and we can afford to get Hayward back slowly if he's the bench production instead of the starter production.


More than pure shooting output counts. Hayward just coming back from the year of injury, but he has a better net rating that Mook. Better D. More other stuff to help the team's O too. If anyone's play deserves a benching, Brown's does.

Would be a good game for Terry & Jaylen to get some extra minutes with the other guys playing a lot last night. I really want to win this one. Crowder (now) and to a lesser extent Mitchell annoy me.

Rewatched the game against the Raptors. Kyrie has to play more minutes with Baynes. A lot of potential with the 2 man game of Kyrie and Baynes in my opinion.

I've never seen anyone ever rank Gobert close to the top 10

Calm down fellas and breathe... plenty of time to make a statement

I HATE away jerseys at home. Hate, hate, hate.
Would be po'ed if I attended this game, plopping huge $$ and not seeing the traditional whites.
Just saying.

Man Kyrie and Tatum are looking so good these days. Need Brown to get on board with the rest of the starting 5 but good defense from him nonetheless.

I would like to see Jaylen Brown’s stats on wide open shots. I bet you his percentage is very, very low

Imo it’s not the start that’s been troubling for the most part this season. It’s been the dreadful second quarter that’s been killing us.
