The best part of the game was watching Pritchard and Nesmith play and seeing them play well.

Ah crap dude, I didn’t know it was hitting you hard and sorry to make light of it. Get well soon.

yall falling for that? he's still blaming the players.


He needs to say things like, "I didn't have the right game plan. I didn't step up and lead. I need to be better. I need to look harder at how I can find a way to be better at getting my message across. I need to hire a (successful) OFFENSIVE VETERAN COACH FOR MY STAFF AND GIVE HIM FULL CONTROL!!"

I'll tell you one thing that the Celtics do as an organization, that irks me.
Is that we bring in "Superior" Vets, that we end up not needing.

We didn't need Kyrie, or Kemba, or Hayward.
That was all a waste of time, and $350M.

We need to Develop our Drafted Players.
Trade the Vets. Build up some Picks.

Draft more Younger players with Promise.
That has been the best thing we've been doing.


Proposed Rotation, 2021-22:
Starters: Pritchard - Brown - Tatum - Grant - R. Williams
Rotation: Smart - Langford - Nesmith - Fernando - Horford
Reserves: 3rd PG? - 3rd SG? - 3rd SF? - 3rd PF? - Kanter
Two-Ways: Thomas - Hauser
Stashed: Madar - Begarin


Trade:
Schröder
Richardson
Hernangómez
(Horford?)

Of course, Tatum has had time to mature in his 23 years, Udoka has only had 44 years. What did you expect? :banghead:

I have an edibles story more not edibles..cuz it was space cake brownies but it's probably inappropriate. At least edibles are measured. It's wild ass hell when you can shut off eating weed..body version of acid I guess..not fun.

Jaylen turned the ball over twice in like 30 seconds to start this game and I knew it was over. This team has a habit of showing us what they have within the first 2 minutes of a game. Even though they had a quick little lead you could tell they were flat, they had no offense to counter Philly's quick defensive scheme and they were getting lucky Philly was off to begin the game. Just a joke of a performance. Just a joke.

Schroder and Horford were BEYOND pathetic today. Jays were trash also but they have to do EVERYTHING out there. There is no way to survive against top defensive teams when only 2 of your starting 5 guys are a consistent threat from outside of 5 feet.

It's time for trades.
WHAT THEY GON’ SAY NOW? ‎ THANK YOU TRUTH!

If he started PP, and he played well. That would be like admitting he F'ed up all year long making PP the 3rd string and sometimes No play PG. He would never give PP that chance. Unless of course Covid is taking everyone out.

Spo played a different starting lineup again and is winning. He has a clue that you need to find out what you have in real situations and make your best players and team adapt. Ime flat out sucks. Celtics don't even have a **** set bench unit to spell the starters...cuz he never plays the bench.

I was hated on for being against the Kyrie trade and the Kemba/Fournier/Richardson/Schroder acquisitions. We traded away what could have been SGA, MPJ or one of the Bridges (I liked Miles) for a disgruntled malcontent cancer. I'll never agree it was the right move. I do disagree about Hayward though. He was an ascending player and the perfect fit for Brad's system. But we never got a chance to see him flourish due to his injury, slow climb back to form and resentment from the kids that had developed while that was happening, for him getting minutes/touches when he wasn't full back. He was a major get and imho we were favored to go to the Finals over the next several years if he hadn't have been injured. Just awful luck and Jae Crowder being a scumbag.

I feel bad for Pritchard, Nesmith and Langford. Richardson and Schroder are fine but they aren't better and they don't have a future with us so it feels like they've done more harm than good. I think they were acquired to give us options to trade for a 3rd star. If that happens we'll at least have suffered for something. If not, we've squandered the season.
