We''ve definitely reached Prime Jaylen!
I like calling him a Power Small Forward

Well kinda like a better version of Zion Williamson just cause of availability.

He seems like he wants to be somewhere else?


Brad had the chance to draft Kalkbrenner
But no, he had to be cute and get Amari and Shulga :banghead: :banghead:

And he knew he is going to lose 3 bigs


Yeah Kalk is looking pretty good and would probably get some minutes here.

Amari is kinda sleepy. IDK, maybe there's something there and will come out after time in Maine.

It used to be Kawhi and Derozan KD.Maybe Foul merchant Shai and JB now.

There was a time when Brown was better than them too. I know I said this before, guess not many people remember.

He is caca
He should play in the Philippines or Lebanon

I wish I had a crystal ball.. What if we did actually draft Kalk.. We would probably have no chance at my high lottery. Pick this season coming.Garza and those two scrubs give us a better chance at getting that pick..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Hey Joe, don't waste Queta minutes and put him with Simons and other non players
His minutes are valuable. Play Brown and PP with him

I will say it the 100th time - I don't have the confidence in Brad and a high pick.
He will get cute or too smart nd will pick someone out of the blue or trade the pick for 5 2nds in the future

I want to win every year

I'm quite intrigued by a Queta/Walsh/González/White/Simons lineup.

Reasons like this are why I want to see Simons around when Tatum is back and hopefully White finds his shot by then too.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]
