Celtics need a Center and a scoring wing,
also no playing time for Kornet and Banton.
They're obviously hoping Pritchard and Hauser can shoot themselves back into rhythm.
Corey Kispert, Ladies and Gentlemen, might be a decent addition.
But, they should give Svi a chance.
But, good Dominant performance by All - Star starting unit.

Lordy..If our bench played this bad regularly you guys would have a point to be concerned. Game 3?? :-?

But on that note some small changes should be made. Stevens needs a chance with the starters rotating > Brisset. Maybe Svi needs some playing time over Hauser to see what he has or to wake up Hauser. Anyone > Kornet.

and finally PP will be fine..

I like PP, but he and Hauser were painfully bad. Fortunately it didn’t matter in the slightest. The Jays could beat the Wiz with three guys named Moe, Larry, and Curly.

Just thinking, Porzingis probably matches up better against Myles Turner than Rob and Horford.
Bucks are crushing the Heat.

our bench has played this bad regularly, some of the same players allowed a team to come from 30 down in minutes, other times had to re-insert the starters. let's not act brand new. joe has played the starters to death just a season ago because he was afraid the bench would give up 20+ in 6mins. so that wasn't some of you yelling at joe for playing the starters too long last season no matter the lead?

Not a bad idea.

Despite the bench being joke. At least the starters didn't play much.

Gonna have the same problem we saw with PP, Banton, Hauser, Brissett, Kornet lineup. Namely Payton Pritchard.

We would have lost this game last year.

Brown because no turnovers

Not a bad idea.

Queta already has foot issues, can't depend on him.
They need a real decent quality Big and another Wing scorer.
Too bad Vucevich isn't available, he'd be perfect.
Can I mention Corey Kispert again?

It literally doesn't matter if our All-Bench lineup can't score. If we are rolling it out that means there's either a gigantic lead or we are losing by 50.

Yeah I miss not seeing Queta. His vertical spacing may have helped. I have hoped he would get the chance over Kornet since Preseason. Too bad he is hurt.

Still just so impressed with Holiday and how he always makes the right play ...it seriously is like having good Marcus every game ! WHAT AN ADDITION

Almeida · Post #35 » by **Almeida** » Tue Oct 31, 2023 1:57 am

I know he's a rookie and it's very unlikely he'll get any meaningful minutes, but I'd really like to see some Jordan Walsh minutes, especially on a blowout like today.

SLCceltic · Post #36 » by **SLCceltic** » Tue Oct 31, 2023 2:01 am

PP will be fine
Houser playing his way back onto DEEp bench ....FREE SVI

exculpatory · Post #37 » by **exculpatory** » Tue Oct 31, 2023 2:04 am

Slaughter for 3 quarters.
JT & 7 DOMINATED w 69 points.
Zinger, Jrue & Derrick were fine.
I could not bear to watch Q4 - horrific display by PP, Hauser & the ‘bench’ - we need help.

Wizards are awful.

82-0 intact.

Keep rolling.

I liked the part where the Celtics dominated and won the game easily without anyone having to play many minutes or stress themselves very much.

It’s insane how quick on his feet he can be coming off switches and then cement himself to the earth at the exact correct moment. He must be infuriating to play against.

Always respected him as a solid 2-way guy but was clearly underrating him. He’s been ridiculous.

I love this. We can't whine and complain about Jaylen tonight so it's the bench. Don't like the bench, put Al back in the starting lineup and send someone else to the bench. Otherwise we all have to STFU cuz this is what we signed up for. Everyone who is complaining about the bench didn't have a problem when we were trading 2 established bench players for Jrue Holiday. We signed up to let this team figure it out with Hauser and PP. Joe isn't bailing on these guys that quick. We won this game basically by 30 and at game 3 we got people ready to jump off a cliff.

Who smokes the big cigar?
