imo the celtics are not better today than yesterday, and gave up more future than we did.

have traded like 3 second rounders, 1 first rounder 1 swap

Well we have 6 PF-Cs for the bench. That should be interesting.

What is it?

trade one of boucher/achiuwa for guard help or trade dragic/first for a guard, we just added more of the same and didnt adress the need for a big body/guard.


The Raptors don't play traditional positions based on height. Young coming off the bench will reduce everyone's minutes.


Yeah. Thats the way I'm seeing it play out esp with Pascal and Scottie having the ability to manage the floor. Still concerned about the lack of shooting outside of Fred and Gary though.

Points to positionless basketball more than anything.

People do not seem to realize that OG/Siakam/Barnes play the 1,2, 3, 4, and 5 almost equally.

I for one am excited to see those 3 and Thad share the court together.


I'm guessing Thad is going to push Banton out of the rotation and we will roll with these big lineups entirely except Fred.

Thad takes 10 minutes from Banton, cuts down 7-10 overall down from the starters and that's our rotation.

Siakam, Barnes and VanVleet will handle the rock.

FVV 36 / Siakam 12
GTJ 36 / Thad 12
OG 36 / Thad 12
Siakam 24 / Boucher 18
Barnes 36 /Achiwua 18

Is my best guess
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

Yeah I don't like this for Boston really lol Theis and White aren't exactly the most healthy guys ever either. If this goes off the rails it could be then giving up a top 10 pick
