CELTICS 2010

injured

yeah having wrist injuries when you're supposed to be learning to shoot isn't ideal

Much appreciated! Little known fact, I wore the high socks back in the day so my mom could identify on the TV easier 🤣🤣 https://t.co/iYPiA7fqDi

ha thats great

easily nesmith's best game tonight, looks like things may have slowed down for him

yeah even his shot is looking better after just seeming out of rhythm all year

yes that was great, tried to get someone else to pick him up and then said oh well i'll do it myself

what in the world

tried to find out what he said but didnt find anything

"oi mate - you can stick it up your jacksie"

jaylen chasing that 50/40/75 season rn

Quick thread on Jaylen Brown:

We found out Jaylen was asked by C's staff to shoot more 3's on 3/22/21. Before then he was shooting 6.5 3PA at 38.8%, since then, he's shooting 8.3 on 42.6%.

However, prior, he was averaging 3.9 apg, and now that is down to 2.2apg. Makes sense considering his playmaking reads in mid-post were where he showed most growth as a playmaker.

interesting! who is the tweeter? anyone i should know?

also timely because i thought to myself that jaylen was really bombing them last night

dont think ive seen that guy before, do recall hearing about the celtics telling jaylen and jayson to stop taking so many midrange shots tho lol

this is all i could find but pretty sure there was something out there about the jays getting a talking to

Brad Stevens on the Celtics shot profile: “It’s gotta improve.”

Said that doesn’t just mean shooting more 3s, but layups and dunks too. He thought “almost all” of the Celtics 3s today were the right shot at the right time.

hmm, i think i'm going to follow him regardless based on this tweet

I will just remind the NBA media that there is a very distinguished award called "All-NBA" and not every great player having a good stretch needs "MVP Love." https://t.co/yDkD489Y7M

lol yes, there does not need to be more than like 3 people in the mvp race

i agree with that and would list them as Jokic/Embiid/Paul

chris paul is simply not having nearly a statistically mvp caliber season, 16-5-9 49/39/93 lol cmon, anyone crediting him with total responsibility for the suns record should consider that they won every one of their games in the bubble

yeah I love paul but I don’t think he’s be one of my top 10 candidates

i’ve heard paul for mvp at least twice in the discourse recently although one of those was one of the goober ex-players during a broadcast

goober otm

hell yeah baby

celtics are so much better with rob

pls stay healthy rob

they celtics have been so careful with their guys health this year which the particularities of this season considered is probably wise now lets see what they got

shorten the rotation play the guys get rolling IMHO

maybe even let kemba play a back to back is that crazy

i haven’t really paid attention to playoff seeding but if they needed some wins to secure a spot out of the play in or something i’d think about it.

theyre a game out of 5th and two out of 4th, and both the teams ahead of them knicks and hawks have been playing well, getting one of those spots and avoiding the easts big 3 in the first round would be good, also getting some reps/getting rolling would be good too

tatum
brown
kemba
smart
rob
-----
fournier
pritchard
thompson
nesmith

not that bad!

brad has shortened his rotations a few times this year when they were struggling and needed a win, including wednesdays game where he played 8 guys, so he def knows its possible

jabari parker’s an option too

yeah if you need bench scoring he can do some stuff, which is a good option to have for sure, but i dont think hes in the regular playoff rotation his defense is just non existent

semi romeo and kornet could also get some spot play but they all have such huge holes in their games that theyre prob more situational options

backup wing is def the problem spot, fourier can take some of those minutes but hes really more of a guard, semi can hit wide open 3s and play d, romeo can handle the ball a little and play d, hopefully nesmiths emerging play can continue emerging cause his game actually has all the stuff you want from a secondary wing hit a variety of 3s, play d, attack closeouts, keep the ball moving...

hes got size athleticism strength switchablity, ie the nba body

also hes scrappy as hell, im liking nesmith, but hes a rookie whos played mostly like doodoo this year so

with rob pritchard and nesmith dannys recent drafts are looking a little better, romeo could still be good too but he needs to stay healthy and actually play, so far just hasnt done anything at all on offense

parker, romeo and kornet have the potential to find playoff matchup moments where they might help win games
i would not be surprised if pritchaht has a breakout herro moment in the first/second round.

scal goes on about the weirdest stuff sometimes, like he just spent two minutes killing pritchard for not doing a good enough job boxing out jakob poeltl even though he clearly did his best and jakob is just a massive human being

yeah he was like watch film of smart, who is much bigger and stronger btw

take your example from the guy who is probably the best guard at defending up in the nba

right

pretty good comeback btw

With just over 10 minutes to go in the 4th quarter tonight, Jayson Tatum had 30 points, over the next 15 minutes of action, he scored 30 more points.
