Triple Js - The New Big 3

Fierce1 · Post #1 » by **Fierce1** » Tue Oct 3, 2023 12:19 am

Jayson, Jaylen, and now Jrue.

Will this trio equal or surpass the previous Big 3s of Celtics past?

We can hope

Not in my heart but hopefully in titles.

I think this Big 3 of JJJ can win 2 titles.

JuJuan Johnson had his chance

I’m thinking it’s more like they have a
Quality Quartet
or a
Fabulous Fivesome
or a
Sexy Sextet

But yeah, this current squad is good enough that I want multiple titles. Soon please.

Admittedly I didn't see this thread when originally posted, but any big 3 that doesn't include white is a sham. In fact, the team is d white and his 3 Jays (tongue in cheek of course)

Impossible. I have read endlessly on this very board that Jaylen is AT BEST the 5th best player on this team, and that simply cutting him would be a positive move. Addition by subtraction I believe is the phrase.

It's just a shame we couldn't cash him in for some stud like Simmons or Garland when we had the chance.

Isn't it Jason Kidd, Juan Howard, and Jamal Mashburn

I wouldn't put Jrue far enough over White for this to be a discussion.

Until recently, we were putting White well ahead of Jrue. E.g., in the regular season White edge Jrue in all-defense voting and was much more productive on offense. Even tonight the gap wasn't large.

I will always love and respect Marcus Smart, but Jrue clearly was a massive upgrade, especially come playoff time.

The guy is shooting 47% and 40% from 3pt land.

Marcus never came close to shooting that well in the playoffs.

Now we know why Team USA covets Jrue Holiday.

Nah it was Jimmy Jackson... Juwan was on the Bullets

Whatever you need, Jrue Holiday will give it to you.

That's what Udonis Haslem said on Get Up today.
