CELTICS 2010

yeah nowhere to go but up, regression to the mean and so forth

crowder is a good bounceback candidate, his year was off the rails as soon as his mom died and he got traded within like days. he needs an offseason to get back in shape.

speak for yrself stats man

utah seems like as good a spot as any for crowder to bounce back

Doc on why he wanted to be at Pierce's retirement: "When you win together it's like a blood transfusion. You are connected for life." #Celtics #Celticstalk

doc breaks down his gm philosophy

Doc Rivers says he's going to watch his first NBA game from the stands in 30 years today. "I'm gonna grab a beer, yell at the refs all game and boo LeBron."

Brad Stevens with his most definitive “he’s not playing this year” in regard to Gordon Hayward at shootaround this morning. pic.twitter.com/HxBr69ssXj

you don't think he might come back for the playoffs? he could rehab for another 2.5 months before they really start to need him

tho maybe they would want to play it safe, that would be understandable. otoh this seems like the rare year in the east where anyone can make the finals

i think its possible, but even then coming back from missing a whole season and being thrown into the playoffs is a pretty rough transition, how much wld he be able to contribute and wld it be worth it or desirable for the celtics to do it, considering that even if hes technically ready they still might hold him out id say if i had to bet that hes not coming back this year, but he def cld who knows

also i doubt making it to the finals and getting smushed is high on the celtics list of priorities

oh damn, that's really hard to do

well, it makes sense given all his combat muscles and grit

he can do flips and all sorts of shit

p sikk tbh

The only scenario that makes any sense to me at all for Hayward to come back during the playoffs would be inserting him briefly into a home game in the second quarter, for the morale boost and to energize the crowd. Regular minutes beyond 5, up to 8 tops, would be totally implausible, unless they've been keeping him back unnecessarily, which seems totally implausible to me, too.

bh combat muscles

Pray for Marcus Smart (@celtics): hope your birthday kicks off a blessed and healthy year @smart_MS3! #NBAPrayers pic.twitter.com/GeEP3iuAhd

birthday happy

I can’t stop watching this clip of Brad Stevens yelling at Jaylen Brown to “PUNCH IT” in transition and within a microsecond he jumps from 3rd to 1st gear and explodes.

Marcus Smart said he has been surprised that his ninja flip has gotten so much attention. He learned flipping at an early age, adding that he was just a kid “flipping in the hood.”

Danny Ainge: Gordon Hayward doesn't think he's playing this season for Boston Celtics https://t.co/K4dMNXHhAr

— Jared Weiss (@JaredWeissNBA) March 8, 2018

"just a kid flipping in the hood" is a great phrase

this news story is low key funny

Gordon Hayward if he still has hope to play this year: “The hope is still there. It’s something where I’m really honestly not even thinking about it.” pic.twitter.com/L6g7bV5DUy

— Chris Forsberg (@ESPNForsberg) March 9, 2018

hes def playing this year lol.

he cant even run w/o an antigravity machine!

the part of that interview where he talks about not being able to leave his house without randoms asking him if hes gonna play this year lol

Boston fans expect at this point he’s gonna start getting boo’d

you know who celtics fans really want to boo is al horford and im upset about it those fn ignoramuses

celtics shd consider resting some guys

So if the Celtics lose tonight the Pacers will be in 3rd place in the East, and the Cavs in 4th....the C's would still have a 7 game lead over the Pacers with 15 games left pic.twitter.com/ClzrycWwpU

— Max Lederman (@Max_Lederman) March 11, 2018

hmm

Al Horford tried to come in to play but was told to stay home due to his illness.
