I’m for it!! Bring on Anton Watson!

Also, since the end of the bench has underwhelmed, this next month is the time to give more run to Scheierman, Peterson, and Anton Watson so you can see what you have before the trade deadline.

Remember Christian Braun avg 5pts in the regular season, then had a huge 15 points in game 3 of the Finals as a rookie for Denver. You can’t count a dude out as no chance to contribute in the playoffs just because they’re a rookie or a second year guy.

I've seen no reason's why Walsh and Peterson aren't getting minutes every game. They've done nothing to really negatively effect any of the games they've been in. Hopefully Anton does the same. Joe just needs to loosen up on the leash and let the young guys play.

Load management along with half assed effort really does put a damper on the fun of the regular season.

Peterson and Watson are not on the Maine Roster tonight.
They're probably Active on the Boston Roster.

I wonder if PP gets the start? Indy did a good job against him in the playoffs.

After Cole Anthony (of Magic) and Caleb M. Jordan (76ers), we face another Celtics killer, the great TJ McConnell tonight. I hope we can limit his impact!

I was literally going to post something similar to this. I was alive to witness the last 4 Championships From Boston and I cannot remember the following season defending the title being anything like this. I literally do not feel joy. More than one reason for this but like you said half ass effort is a big reason. That and Joe literally cannot figure out how to develop any other players. And hearing the constant **** excuse making from some of our posters on here make I think we should all just turn off until the playoffs come.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but Al Queta should be the starting center due to this matchup
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]
