When Fournier and Romeo show up, we're going to have another roster crunch.

Stevens is the biggest thing that would hold this team back. Let’s see what he does when TT comes back.

Drummond might be in Boston before TT


I hope this team takes off before TT comes back. That way Stevens would have no choice but to ride with it.

Tatum is Tatum we shouldn't be surprised by this at all.

It's Grant that impressed me today, thought he played well from start to finish and if he can baseline that performance i'll be proper happy with him

I'm pretty sure Timelord started a few games last season.

Yeah surely, today's start had a different feel to it though, as opposed to a game or two as an injury replacement as starter, times are changing

Brad Stevens is an absolute moron. He’s going back to TT in the starting 5 when Thompson clears protocol


I honestly believe that was part of the deal with Klutch when the Celtics signed him. TT starts or no deal. That's just stupid though.


Do you have evidence and reasons for that other than TT's quality of play?

that was GREAT
that was like hooking up with a hot old flame
I'd MISSED that team!

..they might disappear again. But if they've worked some **** out and want to hang around and make things interesting, I'm game.

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'

This tweet was during the first half. Pretty sure he had 3 assists in the first couple minutes of the game

no Theis (loved him) so Williams starts
no Teague so Pritchard plays
no Javonte so Nesmith plays
and we get to add Fournier to the mix
Danny's trade deadline was so money and we didn't even know it
I'll withhold comment on Wagner other than that he looked spastic and maybe useful
Looks like Kornet drove his car successfully, I hope it's got good headroom

C's UP leeeeeetttt''sss ggggoooooooooooooo (catch those Hornets and Knicks and Hawks etc.)

This game was just fun tonight, team had energy, played with bounce, gave effort and it was good to watch. Let’s see if it carries over

I don't care about who starts at center. Thompson and Williams will both play a lot. Wagner might play a little. Tacko will obviously surpass them all and become the greatest player of all time. Also Grant hasn't been playing center, which makes him look a lot better to my untrained eye.

I don't think the rest of the NBA is psyched about playing against Rob Williams, he's like a predator drone apex predator sort of deal.

He had 4 at a time when Smart/Walker/Pritchard had combined for 3.

Now I see how the Bucks get so many 2nd chance points...ALL of their players use their off hand to hold down the opponent on the shoulder...Lopez did it twice to Tacko...Connaughton did it to Pritchard on the late loose ball...Middleton did it to GWill too...Refs should be made aware of this garbage.
