Doesn’t upset me. Just curious how often you’ll feel the need to reiterate your honest opinion?

Buckle up buckaroo because he got traded to our biggest rival, lots of Jrue talk ahead

So every Celtics loss then? OK. No need to buckle up. Scrolling is easy.

He's amazingly nimble for his size and is obviously a very intelligent defensive player. Who knows, with regular practice, he may figure out this type of defense.

I think 95% of the posters appreciate what jrue did here i do but like every player he has warts and i think alot of the " slamming"you mentioned was directed more at the celt fans who after last week saying jrue is to old not worth it hes cooked dont need him now they are acting like we got better n you got worse i know thats what being said all over X cause i read it and boston is projected to win 57 games n us 48 .Jrue bashing is more for the health n mental being of those pompous arrogant c fans

Slides his feet just fine, but if you're on the perimeter, you need to run to shooters in defensive rotations, and run to recover to rollers. He can't run, he's literally the slowest player in the NBA.

Who is crapping on him? Pointing out how terrible he was offensively in the playoffs was something plenty of us were doing when he still played for the Bucks.

Bullock signed for the minimum.. sucks I think he could have started for us at the 2.. we maybe didn't have a moveable roster spot or he thought he wouldn't get pt

Khris fully practiced today btw, including 5on5. Everyone else did as well. Guessing Khris doesn’t play tomorrow’s game but still promising sign.

That’s big news.

I’m so ready to fire off some irresponsible takes if/when we see this team healthy.

Giannis saying he’ll set 50 screens for Dame if need be was the most encouraging thing said all preseason.

Agreed. I’ve always thought his issues on switches were a bit exaggerated. He’s obviously much better in the drop though.

I believe Pelton’s system basically said the Bucks were really a 50 win team last year, and with the Lillard trade and him projected to play fewer games than Jrue (as well as the more minor loss of Grayson), we are 1-2 games worse than we were pre-trade.

Edit: I do think it’s a silly projection.

Relying on Brook to guard anyone on the perimeter is, well, yikes. That ain't working.

After watching the Giannis presser I caught this one.

I’m sure it’s expecting little to no production from MarJon or AJ Jr which I’m thinking will be wrong right off the bat.

I know he views AJJ as at best a net neutral player because he wasn’t in his top 30 for the draft class and that bottomed out less than a 1.0 WARP. Probably views MarJon as a negative if I had to guess and wouldn’t be surprised if the same goes for AJJ.
