wut about hoarford? :unsure:


That's a huge fucking blow. I don't agree with the money he got but he was by far our best player. Kanter is a nice replacementDefense is IT level but he is the first post player that can get us an easy bucket anytime since KG. Poirier looks like he is def going to play. Better than Theis was in Euros.

Our overall defense may take a hit, but I doubt that much. Ive seen Brad Stevens coach a top 5 defense with Jared Sullinger, Amir Johnson, Tyler Zeller, Kelly Olynyk and Brandon Bass as his bigs LOL......hes too good. Horfords team and help defense is elite but his defensive rebounding destroys you.

I want to question his leadership a little bit becaude he clearly couldn't get the locker room under control. Rozier, Morris, Brown and Kyrie were all problems so maybe it was just too much.

With Morris and Rozier gone, the guys who were taking shots away from Brown and Tatum, chemistry shouldn't be an issue.

I was wrong obviously. Almost everyone that wasnt a Celtics fan was saying this and we didnt listen....glad were moving on.

I still like Kyrie but hes not a #1. Neither is Kemba, but hes an actual leader and team player who is going to buy into the system and is salivating for wins.
Cant wait to watch Stevens utilize him offball like he did IT. Thats where IT excelled. Kemba is awesome off ball. Kyrie didnt buy into any of that....



Not a fucking chance. Guy was trash omg. Body language was a joke. Credit to Bucks though. Greek is fucking insane. Made Horford his bitch.



:love:


Who even are you

Plz LTF again

Do you think smart will handle the ball more now when Kemba is on the bench. I like the idea since he makes the right passes

Kanter, Poirier, Williams, Theis, and Fall has a legit shot at making the roster.

Absolutely. More defense on the court when Kanter plays. He runs the pick and roll just fine and is great at lobs. We have 2 potential lobs threats in Williams ans Poirier. Poirier is our best roller.

Semi should get more minutes and Langford can play next to Smart getting rookie Jaylen minutes.

The negatives outway the positive but there is no denying his ability.

The Celtics just collapsed because of major locker room issues. No way they going to bring in a personality like Cousins.
