16 teams would have no room for players like Jrue and AL - they'd be unemployed but yet they start for the Cs.

Really bad taste.

I’m not arguing for keeping him, I just have a very difficult time seeing Brad be reactionary like that.

I hope he prioritizes cleaning house on the roster though.


So you don’t see him being reactionary yet you want him to clean house on this roster?


Yes. We cannot run back a $500m/yr roster that’s incapable of beating middling teams.

It was 100% worth a try but a coach is realistically going to only impact so much. The talent on the floor is lacking relative to their cost.
[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]

Does Joe like his main core? Why would you subject them to this when you could play the bench.

If there's a guy Brad thinks has star potential in a gettable spot in the draft, maybe. I tend to think low probability he's not back.

I was hoping the real #2 and #3 were going to show up. Expected too much out of #4 JB. Guess not.

See you next season guys, I'm only here for some of regular season and mostly for the playoffs... didn't even get past the second round this year, depressing. I really thought we were going all the way again, really did. Our flaws can't be overcome as easily as we think and we let our guard down and by the time we care, it's too late.... foolish play all the time. Imagine gloating like our players do when they arent even up in the series yet.... pathetic.

He doesn’t run anything on offense besides looking for open threes

You don’t remember Kyrie’s final season here when him and Rozier were pretty much ripping apart the locker room and both decided to pout and no show vs Milwaukee?

Or when Kyrie called Boston racist and stomped on the Leprechaun

Or when the Celtics choked twice to Miami?

Yeah it’s disappointing but hardly the worst way they’ve gone out.

Let's see what Brad can do WITHOUT the stockpile that Ainge refused to use that he was left with.
