Joe on B2B not using Walsh, Tillman, Scheierman… Peterson not dressed.

JT over 30 minutes already, I just don’t get why Joe doesn’t use some dudes situationally. Other than Springer, the other guys should be worth a look in a B2B situation.

Right now it's just about surviving the regular season.

Like I said earlier, Sam is costing the Celtics some fast break points.

Need someone like Coffey or even Javonte is good enough.

I don't know why Tatum does all that unnecessary dribbling at the three point line.

Like I said, don't count out this team just yet.

These guys are champs, in case you forgot.

He was shooting 40%+ post-Thanksgiving. Even Curry has off nights.

Trae Young's defense is almost as good as Luka's.

What I learned from this group of Celtics, never count them out.

Last season a lot of fans, including Celtic fans, doubted them.

They ended up having one of the best postseason runs in NBA history.


I'll say this:

Get all these misses out the way now. I want nothing but net in the postseason.

We were victims of that in 2023.

Crappy Miami Heat team, as the #8 seed, made it all the way to the finals after a forgettable regular season.
