Agree 100%

Sure, it sucks for our playoff run, but we're not going anywhere without Smart+Hayward and if Kyrie is injured...
This is great for Nader and Semi, who are getting 20+ minutes every game now
Even better for Tatum+Rozier, who now have the freedom to just play their game
Would be awesome to see us run just our young guys out there for playoffs
Hell of a learning experience


yeah, if there's a positive in any of this, Rozier and Tatum will continue to ball and make a name for themselves. It would be a hell of a lot more disappointing if there was a chance we could win the finals, but there really wasn't. No way we were beating a healthy Golden State or Houston in 7 games even w/ Kyrie. (w/ out Hayward).

I still haven't seen enough of Nader and Semi i'll have to watch more, Larkin shows some flashes too occasionally.

I agree, though my guess is they are going to reevaluate him once more after this "procedure". If there's anything even remotely wrong/uncomfortable after the "procedure", shut him down.


Let our young stars develop and come through in the clutch. If Tatum, Jaylen and some of our rookies step it up along with Rozier and maybe Smart? Wow that would be definitely vital for our young players.

Best learning experience
Would love to see Tatum get some Donovan Mitchell freedom and jack up 30 shots and 15 3's
This is the time!!!

Nothing special about them really
Nader may become a decent 3 point shooter who will be able to run a pnr, but I don't think he'll ever improve on defense
Semi is a clamp on defender, but is worse than Smart when it comes to shooting....

Just expect to see a lot of them because of their contracts. They will both be a big part of our future...
If either of them can become a consistent role player, thats a jackpot.
Both signed for 4 years @ 1.5 mil
You need contract like that for what we are trying to build

I respect LeBron and think he's probably the 2nd greatest NBA player of all time, but love watching him lose! it's fun seeing him frustrated &/or flustered lol. You feel the 100% exact same way about Tom Brady (I've seen your posts over the year(s)) so not sure why you're commenting.

Crazy when you think about it... dating back to 2009, when was the last time we had everyone healthy?

KG, Perk, ‘Sheed, Rondo, Green, Bradley, Olynyk, Isaiah, if memory serves me correct, were all either out or walking wounded for some playoffs from 2009-2017....

Would be nice to see what this team looks like healthy. Hopefully next season we can.

Maybe Danny really did sell his soul for that 2008 championship? And his 10-year karma is up this June.

Celtics to petition for Hardship Exemption

I say we leave the roster as is and play Yabu+Allen if needed
No need bringing in a vet taking our minutes from our young guys
