Anti-Hayward people need to understand - we know you are seething with every substandard performance. It's okay not to point it out.

We've still got at least a couple months of this up and down stuff to go. He's still recovering.

It's not that people are anti Gordon Hayward. What we are is more pro Anthony Davis and Kevin Durant which would be common among most living breathing creatures.

Yes but the idea that Hayward would be involved in that transaction is outrageously unlikely imo

Celtics should strongry try to get both AD and KD. That could be the best team ever assembled.

Where were you Friday, when he had 14pts, 3rbs, 2asts, 2 blks on 5/8 FG (2/3 from 3) ???


LOL, against the 10-41 New York Knicks who had just traded away all of their best players.

Not worried about Hayward. He has no role on a team full of too many players. Smart is outplaying him and handling secondary playmaking duties. Morris playing great too. Our record since they became starters proves that. Gordon will be needed to replace them. For now, he is an unselfish, high BBIQ guy on a bench with two selfish, low BBIQ guys in Jaylen and Rozier who are angling for big paydays and increased roles.

He needs time, it's so hard to understand ???

Still think Anthony Davis will be a Laker by Tuesday. That was my original prediction and I see no reason to change it.

I used to bring this up in the Gordon thread, how I didn't know what Gordon's role was supposed to be on this current team. I have to assume we are keeping everyone for the AD package so we can't move anyone now.
TBH I would be depressed too if I was playing with Terry "let me chuck it I'M A STARTAH" Rozier.
You are right though, Brown is pretty dumb at times too.

The second unit can depress me greatly.

I was at that game and missed some of his shots when I went to the bathroom. But he was shooting pretty there for a while.

I'm predicting that Davis will be a Raptor on Thursday.

Predicting after the draft that Anthony Davis will be hand delivered with a big red bow around him to the Celtics front door where he embraces Kyrie and they both sob after all they been through to make this happen.

It will come to that, but because of NY and not LA.


Really? If they don't get the #1, then who do they have that beats Brown +filler + multiple picks?
