CELTICS 2010

guess jb is a guard and a wing in that formulation but you know what i mean its complicated business

dubs did pretty good going small in the finals but wiggins was a beast on the glass then and last night looked disengaged a bit. also had otto who is an extremely good small ball rebounder

healthy rob this time around too

xp its tough to put the perfect roster together in 2023! every team is missing... something

it is hard but still i think the celtics should construct the perfect roster

robs so good at getting in the mix for rebounds outside his zone, even if he doesnt get them he gets tons of tips keeps balls alive creates chaos and paranoia

the celtics big man thing is interesting, i would like them to find another guy but it's pure injury insurance for al/rob so how much do you invest in that? i guess they're not going to be any closer to a title than they are now.

if they got someone good like just for instance purtle or nance jr it would be more than insurance they could be in the rotation and then youre planning for a post or diminished horf future too, tho they could also just get someone cheap like plumdawg which would be more for the regular season and then some playoff spot minutes

purtle isnt ideal since hes a pure center and rob is too and hes on an expiring and will want a dece contract which is something you dont really want to give a backup center but something like gallo pritchard a first and a second to a third team to take gallo since you cant trade him to the spurs kind of makes sense

idk tho maybe plumdawg instead

thing is its hard to put something together without including gallo and if you do youd rather it be for a actual good player since its kinda shitty to unload an injured free agent who took a discount to sign with you

here you go:

The Milwaukee Bucks and center Serge Ibaka have mutually agreed to find the 14-year NBA veteran a new home via trade as he remains away from the team, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

surely he must be so cooked

celts can just stockpile big cooked dudes who will never play

blake and ibaka would be good for the vibes at least they could make some behind the scenes prank videos or something

forgot you had blake lol is he done where was he last night? weird career, hes only 33 and has been cooked for three years

hes so done just hopeless he plays drop d is such a way thats he backs up until hes out of bounds and the other team has dunked

It took almost 2hrs to get to the game yesterday I live 15 minutes away Boston traffic was so bad I’m still traumatized and felt the need to tweet this lol

haa

so that’s why

explains a lot tbh

where does jaylen live smh the T goes right to the arena

“Rob hyperextended his knee,” Mazzulla said. “It’s nothing serious, just obviously taking precaution. He felt good coming off the court. Smart, obviously you saw, sprained his ankle. X-Rays were negative, it’s just a matter of how he’s able to cope with it day-to-day.”

sounds like nbd

conspiracy

Jayson Tatum last week:
42.5 PPG (48.0/44.0/100.0)

Joe Mazzulla was asked Danilo Gallinari wanting to return from a torn ACL before the end of the season:

"I saw him jogging on the treadmill and I was like, 'I haven't seen you run much faster than that in a game.' So I thought he was playing tonight."

celtics just cannot beat the magic theyre too good

5-0 vs the celts and warriors lol

"Talks intensifying" will always be the 🐐 but "reportedly undecided" has tremendous upside https://t.co/dJYNpfqbJu

joe feeling himself

Joe Mazzulla just walked past Marcus Smart in the locker room, did a full somersault in front of him, turned and said ‘you can’t do that.” Then walked out.

Asked Smart if this was some kind of inside joke. He said he had no idea where it came from and what it was about lol. "We need to stop giving him sugar."

this is not a good basketball game

fuck the whole state of florida.

I’ve deleted multiple tweets in the past 15 minutes. I kept giving myself A TIMEOUT.

oh wait is that a thinly veiled reference to mazzulla coaching strategy if so ignore i thought he just meant that it was the kinda game where you wanna murder your own team

lol idk what hes talking about but i respect his struggle

seems silly to get too exited about a game where youre missing 4 of yr guys tho

yeah it's a january game where a bunch of guys aren't playing, it's annoying but who cares

the Celtics beat writers at The Athletic have simply ignored the existence of the last two games, correctly

go big or go home

i like it more than poeltl bc it doesn't mess with the chemistry as much but would charlotte do it? depends if they like mcdaniels, and if they think they can get a better offer for plumdog

it seems fair both guys are expiring but charlotte isnt known for making many trades

white gets so many blocks on the break its crazy

I’m single what’s up
