Brad Wanamaker appreciation thread

31to6 · Post #2 » by **31to6** » Thu Nov 19, 2020 9:16 pm

I loved when he dunked on Embiid and got a T for it.
I loved that he was a great catch and shoot guy.
I loved that he led the league in FT%.
And while it took some time I eventually loved how when he had the ball on the break he ALWAYS took it to the rim and shot it. Every. Damn. Time.
Because he’s Brad F’in Wanamaker! He played PF at Pitt! Whatchu gonna do bout it punk?

Mostly I loved that he far exceeded expectations and his contract. May he have a good remainder of his much-deserved NBA career, and may we have many more such finds.

We was good for us, outplaying his contract and everybody's expectations. Can't ask for much more.

Thank you for your time here, and good luck wherever you play next.

He was a good player for the money in the games that mattered for the Celtics. I wish him luck going forward.

He may be back a few years from now. I guess Rubio returned to the Wolves....

This sucks he was and is better than the rest of the roster two steps back I guess.

Good player and Celtic. He'll be missed and we better have a solid backup PG in place now, Danny!

Veteran presence. Just a legitimately good bench player. Not perfect but you don't appreciate having a solid backup PG until you don't have one. Strong defender, smart player, plays within himself, shoots well enough to be a threat.

wasn't he our oldest player?

He did a good job and I will be sorry to see him go. Those kids from South Philadelphia are tough.

Himmelsbach reporting he could return if Hayward goes.

Solid player. Why did they decline a qualifying offer?

He might take it. no. 1. It is doing him a solid by allowing him to be a free agent.

He is a 32 year old, second-year player. He needs to get his money while he can. Maybe he get a 2 year $6 mil deal Somewhere.

Y'all know my opinion of Wanamaker. Was good to see the board start to come around on him this season, and recognize him for what he was at his price point.

Hope he finds another NBA gig, for a few more dollars than we were going to be able to offer.
