That's good news, especially the fact that Rob is not on the injury report at all for game 2.

I'm thinking they still watch his minutes though just to be safe, and the 23 mins he played in game 1, I'd expect around that same amount in game 2, maybe a little more..


He’s not going to play much more than he did in game 1 no matter what, because despite a full season of evidence to the contrary, Brad still thinks Tristan is better than or at least as good as RW3.

Ugh, Kemba, there is no way we are going to be able to trade him, right?

Yeah it's basically over until he is gone off the roster at this point. Never will be healthy again. Add it to the list of injured guys on max contracts. Who is next? Brown I suppose.

Not that it matters, he's been **** terrible anyway. Just play Waters at this point.

If doing that leads to substantially more increased risk of serious injury in comparison to if he was healthy, it would be
ethically wrong for the Celtics to play him right now. He isn't even past his first contract.

If it is just dealing with pain and not leading to further injury, it is much more up to Williams.

I like Kemba but I do hope he’s played his last game for the Celtics.

He was hurt last year in the playoffs and stunk and is now hurt again. We’re paying him $130M to play in every other game ( or less) and when you need him he’s not available. And I’m not even mentioning all the game he did play in where he played poorly. It’s not all his fault but Danny took a huge gamble signing an undersized over the hill point guard and it’s blown up in our faces just as the kyrie, horford and Hayward signings did. And now we are stuck with his bloated contract. It’s like we never learn. We went from one undersized guard in TT to another one in Kemba. He is a great guy with a great attitude- one of the best I’ve ever seen. So this isn’t about liking or not liking Kemba. It’s about Danny making a really bad decision. We would have bee way better off keeping rosier for a lot less money. I don’t think Danny or brad get fired but Danny better do somnething right in the offseason because this year was a disaster. Stevens has to change his offense for next year. We can’t keep having scoring droughts the way we’ve had them the past two years.

I think Wyc put his thumb heavily on the Kemba deal, which is why Danny and crew aren't being held accountable for it.

Bone bruise is just pain, right? If there's no risk of further injury, Kemba should be playing in an elimination game. At least give it a go off the bench and see if he can get us some points.

If they were Gunna be pissoes about it, we should have tanked two months ago rather than forcing our star player to take on the nets solo. At least gotten a higher draft pick. Someone seriously needs to deliver an ass kicking.
