Great Game Jaylen!

I’d take 1/1/1 for a win at this point. Maybe he needs to sit out and we win tomorrow?!! Try anything, I want some wins!!! Force the others to have to figure it out without him and it may get them into better playing, then we drive the wins from there. See who has what!! I want to give 30 minutes to Hugo and he better take at least 6 attempts. Want Rico to get up at least 10 shots! White to defend and find his stroke. PP may be back, but needs to run the offense. No Garza. Want Boucher to start.


We started off excellent. We just can’t sustain it.


I’m bummed.


Tankers, I’ll see you at the finish line!! I’m here!!

I didn’t say give Rico 30 minutes, but you give him more minutes based on good play/shooting. If he plays 30, it means he’s doing something right.

Tough loss.

Great game by Brown. 41 points on 25 shots, to go with 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

Prichard played well. Best game of the young season for him. 21 points on 50% shooting from the field. You got to love the 10 rebounds.

White and Queta need to play better. Queta needs to fight more for rebounds.

Hugo was really good on defense again. He gave us nothing on the offensive end or on the boards. He needs to play better. Love the defense, but we don't need another specialist on this team. I'm hoping he develops on both ends of the floor towards the end of the season.

Nice to see Minott with some good moments. He scored 8 straight points for us at one point of the game.

We need more from Simons and Boucher. Joe needs to play Boucher at the 4 with Queta, Garza or Tillman at the 5. Right now, Joe isn't putting Boucher in a place to succeed.

We got killed on the board and couldn't keep up with the Pistons athleticism.

Don't do that to yourself. You're going to be hurting a lot this season if you take that approach.

I don’t care for jaylen brown’s scoring. I wanna see what these other guys can do. I mean Gonzalez is getting 18 minutes and he only attempts two shots?

If tanking was your goal then giving Mazzula a extension was the perfect off-season move.

He got 6 years. I'm pretty sure Brad told him to tank lol

Tomorrow Night?

Celtics Roster, 2025-26:
Starters: Pritchard - White - Brown - Boucher - Queta
Rotation: Simons - Gonzalez - Hauser - Minott - Tillman
Reserves: Scheierman - Walsh - Garza


Maine Starts G League Training Camp = Oct 27, 2025
Two-Ways: Shulga - Harper - Amari
Affiliates: Gray - Scott - Luis - Ward


Simons should only play PG with one Pritchard or White.
Boucher should be the Starting PF.
Give González and Minott good minutes.

Well, this is the result when you have historically one of the worst front courts in history..

Only three games, but I’m already starting to check out. Nothing fun about watching a team that can’t hit threes and gets absolutely decimated on the boards every night.

If you're talking about Kalkrenner, he's 7-1 barefoot with a 7-6 wingspan

don't know where you are getting 6-10, but not even close

Brad might've earned this team a top 4 pick with his management of the bigs

And if so, well played, probably the right move. But there's a lot of season left so we'll see.

The nuance of Brad’s genius is the mark of a true… well, genius.

Agree well played Brad “We’ll see!” Stevens.

No way, you have to stick it out through the crap times to make the good ones even better.

It wasn't that long ago that Jordan Crofford got eastern player of the week and that was the only thing we had going that season.... for a week.

This is one of those seasons, clearly.

Might check out a bunch of college ball this year.

Haven’t seen D. Peterson yet but 6’5” elite PG is a helluva place to start.

We will probably lose 4 or 5 more, until we win one.
I would increase Minott’s minutes. I can’t say I understand this Hugo-mania. He’s an absolute zero on the offense.

Fair, thought he was shorter when I watched in college.

Still was not a believer in him and don't really think it's a loss to worry about. Maybe I'll be wrong, but he's just going to be a whatever guy.

Baylor over Flip was 100000x worse. But Brad picked Hugo so who cares

A 6 year contract? Wtf

I was doing the math in my head earlier and I don't think the Celtics have technically fired a coach since Chris Ford. In over 30 years now. Everyone else walked away on their own accord.

I know Carr may have been pushed out with Pitino being hired but he walked away without being fired and I'm not old enough to know if he was part of the responsible party who hired Pitino in the first place.

Point is, they don't fire coaches there. It's forever jobs apparently.

I followed him for a few seasons at Creighton. I thought he would be a good back for this team this season.

BTW, Ryan Kalkbrenner is 7'1 without shoes.

I’ll still follow the team, of course, but they are no longer must see TV for me. Like for example tomorrow I just have no interest in watching the game..

Brad still had thye 32nd pick after getting Hugo in the Brad. Brad trading out of number 32. Ryan Kalkbrenner was still there. I love Brad but was pissed at that move. He moved down and got Shulga and Amari.
