Got a vid? I'd like to see that


I can't find anything posted up, but hopefully there will be from the Youtube content creator I follow who does Celtic stuff.

So the Celtics suck.

4th youngest team in the league, and we drafted a shit ton of rookies. It is what it is. It's time to face the facts, but hopefully Ainge can make use of the TPE. We can trade Kemba in the off-season. I'd like to ideally go after Collins or Jermai Grant, and try to bring in a playmaker either Lonzo Ball or Winslow.

Team relies too heavily on tough iso shots, and the truth is JT/JB are great players, but they're not on Harden's level yet.
Feels like JT takes way too many tough shots, but for y'all shitting on JT lol, okay.

Dude has 3 game winners this year, but please carry on about how he isn't clutch.

I expected more from you tbh.

The starting five has played a grand total of 5 games...
Those 0-8 games against the 5 best teams were decided by 1 or 2 possessions... If we had veteran help + solid bench as opposed to playing virtually 3 rookies, we wouldn't even be in this situation.

At some point you have to point fingers at Ainge, I mean, wtf is he doing?
Plus CBS doesn't like to play Nesmith, I'm fucking stunned.

Also, you watching the Cavs game rn?

This is what we look like without Kemba, but fucking carry on.

I'm all for playing Kemba and raising his trade value to trade him, but what's the point of attaching assets and trading him now? Are we trying to tank?
But y'all delusional if you think we're better without Kemba.


It looks like we have 2 Kobe wannabes on the court.....It has nothing to do with missing Kemba's 40% shooting with NBA worst defense....pls lmfao
Getting rid of his contract>>>>>>>whatever is it you're hoping for over the next 2 seasons with him

There is nothing exciting about watching a guy take an iso pull up contested 3 with the clock at 16+ over and over....
When Tatum took those 5 straight iso pull up contested 3s in the 2nd, I turned the game off, so no idea what happened after

TPE addition in offseason + dump Kemba for a bag of balls. Can move Smart and you pretty much have a max slot....

Kobe wannabe's? Lol.

Moving Smart? So we can give up 130+ points on possessions, and you guys can complain about our shit defense?

Damn how the mighty have fallen.

Do you even bother reading my posts, or you just quote them?

I said I'm down to trade Kemba, but attaching picks + assets is dumb as fuck. We should boosting his trade value and trading him. He's only one year removed from an All-Star bid, y'all acting like he's trash.

Some team will take a flier on him.

As for Kemba here are his numbers as follows:

Quote
Past 13 games: 20.2 points, 4.6 assists, 3.7 rebounds, 1.1 steals with .426/.391/.938 in 32mpg

2019-20 stats: 20.4 points, 4.8 assists, 3.9 rebounds, 0.9 steals .425/.381/.864 in 31.1mpg

Career stats: 19.8 points, 5.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.3 steals .418/.360/839 in 33.7mpg


Whether or not Kemba is a negative asset is debatable. Similar to TT, you can envision a situation where his stock will go back up a bit. Right now? He's an declining asset.

This off season a lot of teams have cap space while the FA pool got dwindled. So there could be much more opportunities to trade him off season.

If other PGs like Lonzo Ball sign elsewhere, I can see a team like the Knicks interested in him for a short 2 year contract if he doesn't cost them any trade assets except maybe a 2nd rounder.

Also, y'all sound spoiled as fuck. Do you remember how bad it was during the Rick Pitino era?

This is nothing. I'm just pissed at how CBS isn't choosing to play the young players. If this year is a bust, then play the young guys, figure who's worth keeping, and move Kemba in the off-season. I really do not want Javonte Green, Teague, or TT seeing anymore minutes.

You don’t have to agree with my Kobe comp but that’s exactly who Tatum tries to be.....

They tried moving Kemba with tons of picks attached....failed. You’re giving up to get rid of or you have him for 2 more seasons.

Spoiled? A spoiled fan would believe Kemba doesn’t need anything attached to get rid of his contract.....

A spoiled fan like myself wouldn’t be asking the franchise to take a step back to better the future....Id want wins NOW. PLEASE USE TPE!! PLEASE 1st trade in 6 years!!!!

Nope...I am just realistic and know we are nowhere near the Nets or both LA squads and if they are able to dump Kemba to bring in better pieces next year, please do, asap.

Open up the roster by dumping Semi, Green, Edwards and Waters....then bring in some real talent with TPE and whatever is remaining from moving Kemba. Do whatever you want with Smart after that.

And yes, I am reading your posts. Sad question though.

Fuck it I give up after tonight.

This team is complete shit.

We need to get rid of Teague, TT, Semi, Walker, and Theis.

Either pick a fucking direction, trade some for established vets/glue guys, or trade Theis by the trade deadline and Walker in the off-season.

Cut salary space, trade TT to the Raptors for Baynes/2nd rounder. Waive his team option, and go young.

This team is literally making me HATE basketball.
