Celtics 2025-26, Off-Season/Training Camp Thread

[KamikazeK]

I don't think the NBA is ready for what the Celtics have for them this season.

[Hal14]

Projected depth chart to open the season:

C Horford
F Tatum
F Brown
G white
G Jrue

Regular rotational bench players: Pritchard, Hauser, Kornet/Tillman

Could get some fairly consistent rotation mins here and there: Walsh, Queta

Deep bench: Springer

Garbage time: Scheierman

Injured: KP

2-ways: JD, Peterson, Watson

Assuming the exhibit 10 guys head to Maine..

Horford at #96 (Numero uno en mi corazon). None of our starting 5 in the list so far. Also...

Remember Derrick White didn't even make top 100 last year.

Good old TD Bank (that's Toronto Dominion) has just been fined $3 billion for laundering drug money.

Here's their homey commercial where they know your dog and take care of your favorite aunt:

And here's an article about those chummy folks laundering money for drug cartels and other criminal organizations.

TD Bank pleads guilty in money laundering case, will pay $3 billion in penalties

TD Bank pleaded guilty Thursday to multiple criminal charges and agreed to pay a whopping $3 billion in fines and other penalties to the Department of Justice and financial regulators for failing to monitor money laundering by drug traffickers and other criminals.

The attorney general said that over a six-year period that ended last October, TD Bank admittedly failed to monitor a stunning $18.3 trillion in customer activity, which allowed three money laundering networks to transfer more than $670 million through accounts at the bank.

At least one of those schemes involved five bank employees, Garland said.

“At various times, high-level executives, including the person who became the bank’s chief anti-money-laundering officer, knew there were serious problems with the bank’s anti-money-laundering program, but the bank failed to correct them,”

Kyrie 11 spots higher than Jrue. I wonder if any of the "experts" at that clown factory actually watched the finals.

Baring any injuries, Celtics are repeating this year.

I don't think anything has been more obvious. The league hasnt caught up to our roster construction and the rest of the league looks as weak as it's been.

The NBC Sports Boston cable channel is evidently getting added to Peacock.

Original article seems to be in the paywalled WSJ.

This would be huge, as it's much cheaper than Youtube TV. But does Peacock have DVR capabilities like YTV?

Pritchard posted a vid yesterday about his day off. So I'm assuming they had yesterday off, after the raptors game. And back at it with practice today. But I figure they're not gonna bother having guys practice with the team today who aren't gonna be on the standard roster or 2-way.

Dmytro got waived yesterday and I assume today (sometime between now and 2pm est) we'll hear about the other guys who are getting waived.. including Hason Ward who just got signed to E10 but will likely get waived today so he can go play in Maine.

Plus, the sooner we waive a guy..we are helping out the player by giving them more time to possibly get signed to a better contract with a different team.

They waived Dmytro yesterday to sign Hason Ward to an E10.

Everyone we're waiving is reportedly potentially headed to Maine, including Walker (unless he has an offer from another team).

But yeah, no point holding on to sure cuts for another practice day.

Roster reset.

We still have 21 guys on the roster. Need to trim it down to a maximum of 18 (15 standard, 3 2-ways) by saturday.

Essentially, the 4 guys listed here on exhibit 10, we need to waive all 4 of them (and likely route them to Maine) *or* Walker) could possibly make the roster as the 15th man, with the other 3 exhibit 10 guys getting waived..



This essentially is a waiting game if seeing whether Walker makes the roster or not. And it'll be a formality of the other 3 exhibit 10 guys getting waived over the next couple of days.

Or who knows, maybe Brad will surprise everyone, with JD or Peterson getting converted from their 2-way to take the 15th roster spot ..and then someone like Scrubb or Harper gets that last 2-way spot.

Or who knows, maybe Springer gets traded..

There could be a surprise..but the most likely scenario is all the exhibit 10 guys get waived, we leave 15th spot open..with a small chance that Walker makes the team as the 15th man..

He played well in the preseason. Hopefully going to Maine.
