Rockets won. They did their job.

Annoyed with the Sixers who might overtake us for 2nd best offense. 2nd best defense might hold depending on how Grizzlies do later.

Best summer league game of 2022-23. All the snipers showed their stuff, as did JD (even if the stats don't reflect it).

57-25 wins is solo-3rd best finish by the Celtics since Bird retired. 2008 and 2009 only teams who did better in reg season.

Just sayin... how much better is Muscala than Justin Jackson? lol

Another good trade by Brad.

The non-Doncic guards with a 30-pt triple double this season: Lillard (2x), Morant, FVV, and Pritchard. Celtics guards who have done it: Rondo, Irving, Cousy (2x) If you don’t count Hondo (2x). That’s it.

So, the Celtics will be drafting 33 with their lone Draft Pick and Oklahoma moves up from Miami's 2nd Rounder
to Portland at 35 or so.

Pritch and 33 for a Decent First and Draft the Best Big Available, perhaps Kyle or Lively from Duke or James Nnaji or Hal's guy from Alabama... or just acquire one of those guys at 33. :)

I’m willing to bet no one outside the Jays had B2B 25-pt games this season until today. Hauser with B2B 26-pt games hehe.

I thought Champagnie was pretty good. He hustled, was scrappy. Hit a 3, made a few nice passes. Was decent on defense. Got some boards. Moved the ball.

As Van Gundy mentioned, was active on both ends and did not look like a guy who was on a brand new team.

For a 21 yr old with barely any NBA experience, who's only gotten 1 practice under his belt with us (assuming we practiced yesterday but maybe not?), you can't ask for anything more.

Assuming he'll be on the summer league team and have a shot to make the roster next season.

Now watch, Celtics will struggle against Miami and Hauser and Pritch will be left to rot on the bench by Mazzulla.
It's in the works... :)

I posted on another forum after last game how the things Pritchard and Hauser bring (passing and shooting off screens) is what the team is missing. Then I got downvoted to hell. I don't like to say I told you so but I TOLD THEM ALL SO! Lol!
