Brutal seeing Jrue in a Celtics uni this season. Just gonna make me throw up.

Celtics going ALL in on their core of Tatum, Brown, Porzingis, and Holiday. Good core, but lost all of their depth this offseason and now have holes to fill up front relying on Porzingis who never stays healthy and Horford who is 73 years old.


Fuck.

Lol? Ummm, how about Jimmy Butler?

The fuck, are you seriously this dense and delusional?

Butler averaged 29/7/6 on 48% FG and 36% 3PT in the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Better numbers than Tatum AND he was a hell of a lot more clutch, came up bigger when they needed him consistently, and to top it all off beat the Celtics in the ECF's.

Take the homer goggles offffffffff


Tatum was definitely better than Butler in the playoffs, and better in the Heat vs Celtics series too

Clutch? Tatum was clutch as FUCK all playoffs

Celtics out: Brogdon, Timelord, Smart, and Grant Williams

Celtics in: KP and Jrue

Horford is about to have his biggest workload in a year where decline is expected?

this iteration of the Celtics is the least threatening of the past 2 seasons + this upcoming season

they are so thin with big men right now that teams with size are going to bully them inside

It feels insane to me, the guy barely plays and never actually contributing. You got one of the best defensive guards + a real Point guard.

Finding a 7 foot center who can defend and clug rhe paint is easier to find imo

Nah he contributes A LOT when he’s on the floor, but you’re right, he hardly plays, so his value to the team is a lot less.
