i think stevens is doing the honorable thing by trying to absorb the blame but if a coach is publicly saying "the pieces didn't fit" that means to me it falls squarely on the GM
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:07 (five years ago) link
the one thing i will give both stevens & ainge a pass on is the gordon hayward stuff.... the players should've understood that minutes needed to be invested in hayward simply so that he could get used to playing in the NBA again and that this year in all likelihood was going to be a struggle for him
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:09 (five years ago) link
yeah to me the biggest controllable thing that just didn't work was the handling of hayward. i don't know who to blame for that tbh. if they did a consolidation trade to get guys more shots or whatever hayward would still have been there playing like shit.
they thought they had a switchable monster with 4 two-way wings and if everyone played reasonably well that would have been correct.

The Boston Celtics and French center Vincent Poirier have agreed to a two-year deal, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Poirier is a 6-foot-11 center who will provide additional front court depth in Boston.— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 2, 2019

he's a straight up baller. i don't know if he's going to play in the nba but he's going to get buckets somewhere for the next dozen years.

yabu otoh seems pretty much done as a prospect.

he's a natural w/that reverse layup. already figured out the short guy countermoves around the basket.

the thing i am seeing is that he doesn't really have a set shooting form. he's one of those guys that figures out where he is and then how to make it go in.
