Why not? He comes out and says he's "good at basketball" and then he makes two dumb cross court passes that any 8th grader knows not to make. His turnovers cost them the game on Saturday-- never mind his complete lack of offensive production in the 4th quarter. If he was too tired, he should have been on the bench.

If Belichick were coaching the Celtics, we wouldn't see Tatum for at least a week.

And while I'm at it, let's not have any more BS from Udoka about how he's going to coach guys "hard." He's ever softer than Stevens except that Stevens drew up much better plays at the end of games.


Yup. Smart especially should never get away with what he did. But he did. Already undermined Udoka publicly about the captain thingand what do you know. No captains. Weak.

I think it's best if Brad doesn't wait until the trade deadline.

The only trade we need is for a shooter. We need either Nesmith or PP to be the guy who you cringe who shoots. I am gonna get on Marcus Smart. The guy is terrific, but he should be shooting better,

Smart has improved from 25% to 27%. :lol:

I mean did you just notice Smart isn't shooting well? He's had like 1 decent shooting season (at .400 from the field) and that's cause he averaged like 8 shots a game.
Good assessment:

I found a fairly apt metaphor for these discussions.

Horford
Christian Wood
Tatum
Brown
Schroder

Can't leave anybody open if the Celts have a lineup like that.

Rob Williams comes off the bench.

That's a lineup that I think can hang with the Nets, Sixers, and Bucks.

1) Wood wont be traded
2) Wood is a center
3) Tatum is a PF
4) Schroder doesnt pass.

I want C Wood as much as you.. I also think saving the first it would take to require him would be a good investment. with that said, Every 1st is being saved for the hypothetical trade for Beal. (sign N Trade in the summer)

But I also believe Beal would much rather stay at Was for the Max and stay option #1 vs share a top 3 spot in scoring with Boston. It is really hard for players to give up the lead mantle.

1) Wood wont be traded - probably not, But Houston does have young players who need paying time at his position.
2) Wood is a center - center or PF he can shoot and score well so it doesn't matter to me.
3) Tatum is a PF - he is better at PF for sure.
4) Schroder doesnt pass.


you're not wrong but still would do this trade.

I also don't think Beal to Boston happens.

There's a bigger chance of Ben Simmons ending up in Boston than Beal getting traded to Boston.

It's a win-win if the Celts end up with Christian Wood because Horford is getting old.

Wood will be Horford's successor.

A spread out floor with 2 capable Bigs are what I like for sure. With Rob Williams rotating. It will also serve to lessen the minutes of Rob and Horford and prolong their play.

What's even out there? Wood, Hield, Bagley, maybe Wiggins and journeyman like Thad Young, Eric Gordon, etc. Potentially Brandon Ingram? And does this team even have any assets? Not really.

I go back to Danny and how he really screwed up his "war chest." Just awful, terrible drafts and leaving this team in a position where, though it's not mid 2010s Nets ugly, it's just... meh. Purgatory. Top heavy with Tatum and Brown, a quality player in Rob who can't stay healthy, and a bunch of roleplayers.

Schroder, 1st rounders, Marcus, and maybe if teams want to give an oft-injured Rob and Nesmith/Pritchard a chance is basically all this team has. Best we can hope for is for the young guys to step up, because KG ain't walking through that door.

If you tweak that trade by removing Brown from it, I could definitely get on board.
