Woj: Ime Udoka Named Head Coach

[Bleeding Green]

So we're going to use the not healthy in ____ years excuse every year? Next year its going to be the Celtics haven't been healthy in 5 years so that's why Marcus jacks up 10 3s. Seriously should play him like Rondo. Just pass the ball and play D. Thats it.

Who should be taking the shots? Smart as ninth on the roster in shot per possession. Should those shots go to Kemba Walker, who had a worse shooting efficiency? Maybe Tristan Thompson? Carsen Edwards? Semi?

Fournier and Kemba for starters. Listing off TT who is supposed to be a rebounder and multiple jobbers doesn't reinforce your point. Its like saying should Jimmer Ferdette start over Marcus Smart. No Marcus is a good role player who people on here desperately wants to view as this borderline indispensable star while Jimmer, Edwards, Langford and Semi are all jobbers who shouldn't be in the NBA

Those players take more shots than Smart. Watch the games.

I'm pretty sure Brad was just playin' with us, pretending he was looking forward to finally sharing a GM-to-coach postgame beer:

Semi and Edwards do not take more shots than Marcus.

Edwards is fourth on the roster in shots per possession. Watch the games. Smart is not an issue.

Edwards does not take more shots in a game than Marcus. Look at the stat sheets. Edwards has never taken 17 shots in a game. Again you're comparing Marcus to a jobber on the roster. If we're playing this game then lets compare Tackos FG% to Al Horford

That Jay Williams tweet is super embarrassing for him lol.

[31to6]

well, this guy is sort of like James Posey with a better coaching resume?

Glad if we’re getting who we wanted. On towards training camp!

[celticfan42487]

I was wondering if that was a real tweet or not?

Excellent hire! Stevens off to a great start. Good Luck Ime Udoka!

[jonige94]

Is Udoka going to the Olympics?

What an idiot. Bill Russell, KC Jones and Doc Rivers lose their black card all of sudden?? He's so stuck in perpetuating this racist Celtics narrative along with his buddy Kyrie that he forgot we were the first team in the history of the league with a black head coach. Hope hes forced to make a public mea culpa.

Not only that, Dennis Johnson,ML Carr,Robert Parish and Cedric Maxwell all lost it, cause they played with Bird, McHale and Ainge...Pathetic.

How did Chuck Cooper get lost in all of this?

Edwards barely played. Just a few garbage-time minutes here and there. Not comparable.

time will tell. I couldn't care less that he is from Pop's system because to me, Pop is a complete fraud who is being exposed as someone who had success due to Duncan and other Hall of Fames and since they left the Spurs have been mediocre at best. What I do like is that he's had a chance to study under several different coaches with different systems, is former role player who knows about sacrifice, hard work, and perseverance, is seemingly bright and has paid his dues. No complaints here. Welcome to Boston!

Don't forget Satch Sanders, M.L Carr - even if the W-Ls were forgettable

This just tells you how daft some of these analysts are. Clickbaiting.

Thats all it really is. If i were Doc I’d respond to that.
For some reason i imagine Bill calling him up and starting by saying BOY dafuk is wrong with you

[Feed Your Head]

Good

Hell yeah.
