omg the cpr

haha that is extremely disrespectful

lmao good stuff, see udoka rustling them up at the end he said he apologized to billups about things getting out of control, it was just cause pritchard was playing in his home town

yeah it was innocent and much needed for a team that doesn't always seem to have the most fun out there

im starting to like josh richardson

he's definitely been playing better, seems like they're letting him handle a little bit more which seems to help him get going

no dunks just vibes

The Celtics are listening to Silent Night right now after practice. ‘Tis the season, I guess.

haha awesome

celtics better with jaylen

love when i'm like "mentally i just need a break from the celtics, i'll skip this one" and they take out the bucks with no suspense

always the way

they are a vexing team

jaylen is a threat

Celtics had Jaylen at the top of the Horns set down the stretch and I think it’s something they should explore more, he looked very comfortable.

my feeling is with their guys healthy the celtics are who we thought they were a second tier team

but when their guys go down its tough cause they just dont have enough offense, not just in scoring but also playmaking, theres barely a plus passer on the roster, as far as guys who actually get minutes its just rob and horf and neither of those guys have the game/position where they can force the issue as far as making plays, but when jayson and jaylen are both playing they can solve some of that just by putting pressure on the D via driving and at the 3pt line, then just make the simple pass once the defense is in rotation, jaylen got jayson some nice 3pt looks last night just via very easy drive and kicks

yeah it's a great point, no perimeter passing and no one who really moves without the ball, so the only way they can create advantages is by attacking and driving over and over which is tough in terms of expending energy and actually having enough guys who can do it effectively.

when its working it looks pretty nice start tiring out the other team and drawing fouls/gettin open kick out 3s, but yeah you have to be relentless and its not the easiest way to make a living

having rob in there getting behind the D is nice too for that style, he gets a couple early dunks and his defender def starts worrying about rotating off him

it would be nice for nesmith to learn to move without the ball more

yeah running around a bunch and then also hitting the shots he gets would be ideal for him

turns out pritchard is still good if you give him minutes who wouldve thought

lmao the crowd just chanted iso joe until joe johnson got into the game then chanted more until he took a shot

nodding

its chill

Celtics now 6-14 in games within five points in the final five minutes.

i think you have to ask yourself how arbitrary it is that we only count points when the ball goes through the hoop, in this way we open our third eye

finally someone said it

ray would like to bury the hatchet

There’s a rift that formed between you and the core members of that 2008 Celtics championship team: Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo. It apparently began when you left for Miami. Are there still hard feelings?

We don’t talk, sadly. I remember after we won in 2008, something that Kevin said, that we’re going to be brothers for life, that this is going to keep us bonded. Rip Hamilton and I are UConn brothers and champions and we’re connected for life. When he won in 2004 with the Pistons, they stayed connected and bonded. That’s something we’ve done a poor job as Celtics, keeping that bond connected. It’s not by my doing, either. The whole story of me leaving for Miami, regardless of that, it doesn’t change anything that we’ve done as a group. That group and what we did is historic. It’ll take cooler heads to prevail and for guys to say, ‘What are we mad about?’ There are so many other things happening in the world. We got to preach unity and togetherness, and for me, that’s always been my mantra. I don’t like the fact we haven’t talked. At some point, I’m sure we will have conversations and move this stuff past us.

shouldve thought of that first hoe

With Jayson Tatum and Rob Williams expected to return against the Spurs tomorrow night, Celtics will have fully healthy starting five available for first time since Dec. 13 win over Bucks.

this is nice, next i would like tatum to remember how to play basketball good

By my count, the Celtics have been basically healthy for 24 of the 115 games they’ve played since the beginning of last season.

A lot of those games have a non-Jay rotation player out or are in Jayson’s “not technically covid but covid aftermath struggles” period.

— Ryan Bernardoni (@dangercart) January 4, 2022

It’s a fair point but excuses excuses. Eye test says the malaise and inconsistency are influenced by but not close to fully explained by injuries

one thing re bad vibes that ive noticed is a bunch of players in the media testifying to how well they get along with jaylen that its silly to say they dont but i never see anyone saying that they dont its odd

The Jays seem like a very awkward personality fit on top of the nonideal fit on the court

All that stuff at the beginning of his career about Jaylen being super intellectual and having all these non basketball interests, i wonder if he’s not an easy hang.

yeah def get the feeling they have some difficult personalities, marcus too

but on the other hand i do think they should consider putting together a more sensible roster and see if that lightens the mood

jaylen shd play w the spurs under pop, its destiny, they wd talk abt books and jaylen would score 28 a game

i would be happy for jaylen in san antonio but im afraid we simply cant allow him to go

it super sucks, yall are wasting his talents imo

wow ok

im telling it like it is, two guys as good as the jays youse guys should not be a 10 seed in the east immfho

how many games have the jays played together this year

4

think at this point i'd rather have a good point guard than two jays but maybe both is possible in some way

the thing about trading a player as good as jaylen is you never get equal value in return so its basically a non starter, seems like the two realistic options for the celtics to become a better basketball team are 1 acquire a third star via shipping off a bunch of draft picks or 2 build a more complimentary team, one that has more playmaking and shooting, around the jays

ever being at all healthy would help too
