You can just picture him saying that and being absolutely deadpan.

Horford, Morris, Hayward, Smart, Irving, and Theis. That's a near title contender on the sidelines.


Add Baynes to that lineup and if healthy it's probably enough for the #1 seed in the East.

It would be. While Portland, in my estimation, is a better team than the Jazz I think winning while missing a guy who is averaging over 25 points in his last 3 games is huge.

Shame for ESPN that Theis’ return game was ruined. Should be a great game though but not the draw they were looking for.

Yikes shows how hurt we are, Yabs shouldn’t play let alone be starting. Oh well, these games aren’t real important so the experience for him should be good. Not having Theis is a killer right now.

This could get real ugly, but its a "Pop/Spurs" game. Give the young players minutes in the regular season so that they can step in the playoffs if needed.

Crazy list of injuries though, and great reps for the kids.

All I wish is for our young guys to come out of this game unscathed. I don't want any injuries happen anymore!

Clearly the organization must want Brad to get COY with the way all these players are sitting :wink:

All the ESPN commentators (even Paul :( ) saying that they expect a first round Celtics exit if Kyrie's not back. I just don't know how you can write this team off so completely.
