White should be starting and Grant coming off the bench
Opens up room for PP

Not why we lost but stop starting Grant please



Why the FUCK did PP not play though

Surely unavailable?

He was the streaky spark plug we needed. Hustle and determination

Def available

Just gets kicked out of the rotation once Smart and Brogdon are available

Frustrating because White is so much better as a starter

I mean it’s a good problem to have. I’d rather good players not getting court time than shit players heavy in the rotation… but I definitely think he could have been valuable tonight. He seems to lift when everyone else is flat, and he definitely ignites those around him with his grit.

Looks like PP won't ever play if White, Smart and Brogdon are available

Shame

It is a shame because he’s such good bench piece but we are so deep he’s not really needed.

I do think he should be given minutes when our energy is low and shots aren’t falling, cuz he is an igniter but yeah them other guards are just better players overall.

Teams like Charlotte and Washington have better D ratings. Not concerning.

How bout the offense thou?

The offense will take a hit once Rob returns, but the defense should skyrocket.
Also, I MUCH rather they rely on offense during the regular season than play lock down defense every game. It has always been what has held this team back. Last thing the Celtics should be concerned about is defense. They can flip that switch at any point.
Need to continue to improve the offense after a massive collapse in the finals.

Blew that lead so fast
Kings offense is legit though. Fox becoming a superstar.
