Kornet is more of a short minutes guy.

Queta can really play rotation minutes.

Hope Q and Brissett keep getting run in the second. Their energy has been good. The one thing about Joe is that’s he doesn’t really adjust when some guys are struggling and others are providing more of an impact

White is allowed to have a bad game on offense.

His defense is still great in this game.

He kinda reminds me of another former Spur, Manu. Less athletic and less frantic Manu.

Nope.


Can be converted before the finale game of the season, I believe.

White is due for a bad shooting night.

He's been awesome the last few games.

I refused to believe that is possible.. Is white about to explode from three in the second half.... Wait for it..

Both Kornet and Queta have their place,
it's not a case of one or the other folks,
they are both useful in their strengths,
and their weaknesses
can be limited with the skills of the Celtics frontcourt this season.

Our bench has been really competent lately. We don't need to waste assets on another big. Queta is already better than Beef Stew. I'm fine with standing pat. If we did anything, I would maybe bring in a defensive specialist PG, for when Payton is not hitting his shots. But basically, I see no glaring needs.

Jaylen Brown comes out in the 3rd quarter making a statement, “We ain’t playing in the 4th quarter”.

This celtics team is GOOD.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)
