Fixed.

And the Italian girl I slept with last night said we **** up the whole pasta thread too.

She called us some word that started with a G that I can only imagine meant " American pasta idiots".

Jabari is the only Celtic on the positive side of the +/-, but he sits as -14 Grant Williams still gets more minutes. :nonono:

Act accordingly.


This is why you trade Brown for Harden… same reason the Clippers traded everything for PG. If youre able to stop an unbeatable super team from forming, take the **** shot.

This Nets trio is the second most talented team in the past 20 or so years. Arguably #1.


We legit could have kept Smart, with what the Nets gave up.

Kemba/Smart/Harden/Tatum/Tristan would be the best team in the East.

Need to surround that man with proper talent.

Anything that gets in the way of that is not important. Even player development. Make the moves.


Player development should be over and should have been over once Tatum signed his contract. It was fine during the IT years or before. The time is now to do everything you can to help JT and JB. Like imagine if this team had a third all star making max dollars that does not suck, is short, or is injury prone. The Celtics got the hard part right having 2 legit stars that are young. Make the right pieces to surround them now

We wouldn't be playing the Nets in the first round,, at least if thats the case.

Uh?

Harden is incredible, and Tatum would be getting defended by secondary defenders.

More importantly, the Nets wouldn’t have Harden.

It's criminal that Tatum only has 15 shots at this point.

Return to Boston Celtics
