the best that can be said is he had 5 assists by halftime
and there's still 18 minutes left;)

Hauser might be worse than Walsh

But also on offense hahahah. One of his worst games this season. Up to Joe to try someone else.

Horford is getting wrecked on both ends.

I really hope Tatum develop more of that post up like he did against Siakam. Please add this to your game, have everyone clear out and muscle your way to the basket like all the other greats did.

Celtics should consider trading Al’s salary + Hauser for a competent big

IND is hitting floater after floater over Al
Luke and Queta will get their turns again soon, and hopefully can get up to challenge those more than Al
(Luke had one nice block in the 1st half)

Celtics need to have Hauser earn his minutes again. Play Walsh instead, at least he tries on D

Hauser getting abused on D. He just can’t keep his man in front. Combined with his shooting slump. I’d give walsh or peterson a shot.

That's illegal and despicable.

Kneejerk reaction to bad game by Horford.

Yeah it’s like a broken record. He’s the main issue with the defense getting broken down. Al’s decision making on offense is especially horrific where he has the ball inside the 3

Can’t combine salaries since they’re over the 2nd apron and I don’t think that’s a good idea anyway. Sam’s hurting.

blasphemy
also as a 2nd apron team they can't aggregate outgoing players in a trade

Yeah, but Hauser has some company in that department.

PierceFan4ever · Post #198 » by **PierceFan4ever** » Mon Dec 30, 2024 12:35 am

I agree that the role for Al is a little too big right now. Yeah he did start in pretty much nearly every game in our championship run but we are asking a lot out of him. So many missed games by our guys mainly KP

JT could've drove all the way to the rim

White can't keep up with Hali
