CELTICS 2010

and the playoffs will not make the season seem worth it, it will only depress you further for having sat thru their regular season nonsense

lol what the 2010 playoffs were totally worth it

no i only made u depressed further

it

stop telling ppl how depressed they are

i may become a celtics fan this season

diagnosis: depressed

:(

remember when they knocked out the skeet in the first round this year i do

bowtie is a nice touch for press conference attire.

this year will be fantastic.

Shaq is all smiles because he will earn a few more million dollars for doing little odd jobs here and there. Doc looks grimly serious because Shaq has just executed a cannonball into Doc's swimming pool and now only half the water is left in the pool.

jordan u forgot one crucial point that i dont have to watch rasheed power-walk from 3 pt line to 3 pt line thus the regular season will be less depressing. i know what to expect from fat shaq and he is really fourth/fifth big man on the depth chart and at a min salary and somehow that's less depressing

for real though i think cs will be energized by the finals run and ready for vengeance. injuries were big last year too

clincher is that league pass also means i can watch okc all the time if all else fails

Was thinking this exact same thing today.

this i don't believe. i think o'neal is desperately concerned with going out on a super high note -- preferably by beating bryant in the finals. he could have signed for more money elsewhere. not that i think he's likely to put boston over-the-top at this stage of his career, but whatevs.

i hope he wears the bowtie during games, is all i hope.

Then throw big baby down on top of'em

are these pre-emptively strikes against some trash-talking c's fans that haven't arrived yet or

ly

I don't get the potshots and hatred; C's fans aren't parasitical cancers like Lakers' fans.

BRIDE OF PERKINSTEIN

aw

shaq to solidify celtics:

BOSTON — NBA analyst David Aldridge said Wednesday that with the addition of Shaquille O'Neal, the Celtics have vastly improved their chances of leading the league in three-second lane violations for the 2010–2011 season. "Not only does Shaq's presence in the paint give his team more opportunities to turn the ball over, but the Celtics have also added an experienced big man who makes an already old team significantly older," said Aldridge, adding that O'Neal should fill a key role in terms of drastically slowing down the Celtics' offense. "Danny Ainge was looking for someone with size who can't make it down to the other end of the court, and he went out and got the best in the business." Aldridge added that while O'Neal isn't the dominant force he once was, he believes Shaq still has a thing or two to teach teams who think it's a good idea to sign him.

He may not entirely solidify the C's, but he can add a lot of viscosity.

hahahahaaha guys i just realized, shaq is really fat!

on paper and based on my faded memories of his great prime years, boston signing shaq sounds like a very good move. then, you read stuff like this:

SamAmicoNBA Shaq on Mo: "Guys who couldn't even play were worried about shots. Why was Mo (Williams) taking 15 shots, and I'm only taking four?"

if o'neal is complaining about his shots on a 66-win team featuring lebron james, i'm not convinced he'll all of a sudden be a good team player in boston. i imagine if he could work well anywhere, it would be there, given the quality character guys leading the team, but still . . .

almost felt bad for scal w/the intensely patronizing fan appresh, almost

he'll get over it

Perkins, who will turn 24 next season, is too young to remember when Shaq was a productive basketball player. When asked if he has seen any tapes of Shaqs days with the Magic, Lakers, or Heat Perkins replied “no . . . I don’t own a VCR.”

There's a lot to like about KG, but I wish to god he'd woof less at his opponents and refs and let his play do more of the talking. Too dickish from my pov.

Woofing at his teammates is ok in my book, though.

larry bird towel wave gif in the comments as it should be

his thumb was slowing him down

Bobby Krivitsky‬ bobbykrivitsky.bsky.social‬

In the 22 games since Scheierman fractured his left thumb:

47.3 FG%
42.1% 3P% on 4.3 attempts
7.6 points
4.5 rebounds
2.2 assists

That's in 25.2 minutes of floor time.

playin seeding worked out for the c's theyll play the winner of magic sixers thereby avoiding the hornets

tatum has a very good shot at that record

inshallah theyll be 1-2 before its all over

queta spent two of the three games so far in extreme foul trouble barely played because of it not sure what his deal is

vooch and pritchard both on court for crunchtime last night, gotta think well see them finish with smallball tatum at center lineups at some point

(xxp) inshallah tatum will be #3 and brown #4 or #5 by the end of june

tatums assist to pritchard at 4:08 is so good just pure manipulation hes setting it the whole way then as soon as vj rotates the beautiful looping skip pass is there hes got three philly defenders in the palm of his hand while casually dribbling at half speed

jaylen good faith effort to engage with white culture even tho it makes no sense to him

you can also see payton signal the spot he's going to go to and tatum threads the pass right to it

love to watch high level basketball

pritchard also signals jaylen to get deeper in the corner but he was already doing it, these guys are locked in

guess ainge had seen markelle fultz in aau a bunch via his son playing against him thereby getting a scouting advantage cause usually nba workers arent allowed at aau games

https://www.reddit.com/r/bostonceltics/comments/1tc89bf/elhassan_how_danny_ainge_exploited_a_big_loophole/

kinda interesting and fun to hear them talking about it but hard to imagine that exposure overrode the countless of hours of fultz balling that everyone had free access to. regardless though, it's definitely one of the most amazing jedi mind tricks that ainge was so confident going against such a broad consensus, and it paid off to such an extreme degree. truly mind-boggling

celtics drafted two freak athlete projects, which makes sense for where they were drafting

lot of people had cenac higher and he was rated top ten before the season, hes a crazy on ball defender who can switch onto perimeter players very well but somehow blocks no shots despite being as mentioned a freak athlete who is very tall, he can shoot some too is a shot maker in the midrange should be a good roll man, not a physical player, much to like and not like kind of a weird player

dillon mitchell just seems like a no brainer nba player except that he cannot shoot at all, so teach him how to shoot and youre good i guess, easy

dodged a bullet

They had talks with the Boston Celtics about Jaylen Brown, a team source said, but the Celtics were looking for a package including Gobert, Reid and similar pick compensation that went to Charlotte for Ball, team sources said.

jalen spending his summer crashing out as a guy making 50 million plus a year, hell yeah

He went to a world cup game with the rest of the guys yesterday, looked fun.

dont really understand the jaylen sitch i understood trading for giannis thats pretty simple but now its not like theyre going to get a better player back but they still want to trade him and get some sort of package thats a major restructuring i guess they just think that the current team is plain not good enough even if they made lesser moves but if they trade jaylen theyre prob going to take a pretty major step back and have a lot more work to do which i guess applaud their decisiveness but idk

all the stuff about how their relationship is too damaged to move forward seems silly idk maybe talk it over doesnt seem like a good reason to make a trade, suspect its really more about not wanting to give him the contract extension hes eligible for, but then youre going to trade him for what donovan clingan and picks

i would just like to put it on the public record one more time that i absolutely love jaylen brown and i would absolutely and unconditionally trust him as my team's #1, #2, or god (and brad stevens) willing, one of two #1s. i'd be good with him as player-coach, too.

i thought simmons was honestly pretty good on this in his pod from sunday, just pointing out that jaylen was not saying stuff during the regular season like "can't wait for jayson to be back on the floor" and tatum hasn't said anything in the last few weeks even thru leaked reports or whatever to support jaylen or indicate that he really wants jaylen around. now, simmons said that he thinks they have a fine relationship overall and on the court, no animosity just prob not guys who are particularly close, and tatum is not exactly publicly outspoken generally about anything. but it does feel to me like the celtics looked at that pairing of two guys as having reached the end point. i think stuff about aging, contract, selling high etc is absolutely playing into it but i do think that tatum & brown at one point had a relationship that could be based on a shared goal (winning a title) but that is no longer necessarily the case and i wonder if the celtics front office has detected that fracture, which isn't about personality just as much as it is about the realities of getting the championship monkey off of one's back

yeah i think theres some truth to that like its pretty obvious that jaylen wants his own team, having said that it doesnt mean that you just trade him for whatever, but then you start factoring in the cba type stuff and yeah you can see where the celtics are coming from, front office should be worrying about not antagonizing the fans too much too dont want a mookie betts situation on yr hands

tbf I doubt brad would ever do a trade where they got a mookie haul back

Bill Simmons
@BillSimmons
This Jaylen situation can be fixed with one 3-hour dinner in the private room at Toscano’s - table for 6, the Jays, Joe Mazz, Stevens, Chisholm and Wyc. The right trade isn’t there, shit happened, just talk it out without agents, family and extended circle flunkies poisoning it.

this is the second time (first being on the podcast) where simmons has basically stated that people in jaylen's circle are hyping him up about being disrespected and getting his own team. maybe bill is imagining what is possibly happening but i think the more likely scenario is that this is coming from his celtics org sources

i for one think jaylen should get his own franchise, struggle, realize he was better off figuring stuff out in boston, look at the clock and realize he's 37 and it's probably over, and then he gets into the hall of fame because thats just how good players end things

just talk it out without agents, family and extended circle flunkies poisoning it.

maybe hes just being intentionally vague but if all these people are aligned against the celtics its prob curtains

yeah this is what pop thought about kawhi in 2018-9, if i could just sit down with him one on one we can iron this out, turns out kawhi doesnt make those kinds of decisions alone
