Who els are we supposed to play? Nice wins vs TO, a healthy Indy, and a good game vs the Dubs too. Playing well in this one, too.

Also hold a win against this OKC team and Milwaukee too


Hence the 90%
If the "good" teams are everyone over .600, meaning Mil, Tor, Phi, Ind, GS, OKC, Den and Por, we are 8-6 vs those teams. Those teams records vs the "good" teams are all fairly similar but regardless 8 wins out of 34 is a lot better than 10%.

2 losses vs orl, 1 vs nyk, 1 vs phx, 1 vs dal, 1 vs cha is the real blemish on us. We would be in 1st place in the nba if we won all those against bad teams.

THIS THIS THIS !!
Hayward is not going to be traded !!!!.
That would be the WORST look ever and we're SO much better than that!

For those of you so down on Hayward take a good look at what PG13 is doing these days

If it was such an evil move, then why the hell did IT call Ainge up and beg him to take him back this past summer? Lol

IT and Hayward apples and oranges
Hayward left the team that drafted him, loved him to come to Boston and play with Brad .. he has a gruesome injury and we ship him out !?? Worst look ever IMO

Same. I am more then happy though to land Anthony Davis.


Ya. A dude who at least has shown pretty decent interest in the Cs (Durant) versus a dude who’s every signal from actions to words hasn’t shown any inclination to want to play in Boston. KD all day and it doesn’t blow your team up. You should want AD to go to LA. Keeps him out of the East, and Bron is getting older and soon AD will be in LA basically Pelicans version 2.0.

I would have zero problems getting KD if it came down to it. :nod: I consider him the best player in the league ATM anyway with Lebron slowing down.

edit: AD or KD (either one) would be the best in the league on the C's next year IMO though.

Brad doesn't dictate roster moves.

Sure, against the dregs of the league for the most part. But yes, Hayward looks a little better.

Let's see what happens today against a WC team with a comparable record-- and it's own little win streak (7 in a row). They'll miss Baynes against Adams.


Doesn't sound like you are rooting for them lol.


He's not wrong, like 90% of our wins have come against the worst teams in the league

Why are you such a terrible poster and when are you going to come out and admit that you aren't a Celtics fan?

Lmao. Uh, yeah. He does. Before Cousins was traded to NOLA, Ainge literally asked Stevens if he wanted to coach Cousins and Stevens said no.

I wouldn’t trade Hayward yet. Give him until the start of the playoffs to get his **** together. Otherwise, park his ass on the end of the bench. Come playoff time, the best players play, period. This team has been patient with him all season, but it’s go time starting in mid April.
Handsome.

He does and I am not saying Gordon will be moved or anything, clearly they want to give him time.

HOWEVER, nobody would pass up Durant or Davis IMO on the Celtics. Nobody. It's an absolute no brainer to me if you can make one happen.

I fear more though Al would be the one GS would want for a KD swap since Kerr adores him. :(

Well, good old "two point Gordy" actually had three points today, on 1-6 shooting, along with two turnovers. Every other Celtic was in double figures.
