CELTICS 2010

yeah the trades def helped take them to the next level but they were already playing really well by the time they happened

it's true. a lot of things have come together.

i loved rob williams clapping for the fans the other night, more players should do this

i didn't see this! was it like how players clap for fans in euro soccer? i always liked that and it has never been imported here for whatever reason.

yes exactly that. it was in denver so kind of extra worthy of acknowledgement that so many boston fans were in the house but it’s nice to see that communication back with the fans, that appreciation

celtics are underrated

lmao

Jaylen Brown on the Celtics chasing 1 seed: "It's crazy, right?...I knew the energy was about to shift, so I'm glad we're here now."

He explains that the energy shift tweet was that things weren't going right for the Celtics cause Mercury was in retrograde.

get em lol

One of my favorite sequences of the entire season.

Celtics have a 27-point lead and Payton Pritchard's defending like it's the last possession of a tied game.

Full-court clamps. Steal. Dunk. Bench goes wild. Fans go nuts.

Their energy is contagious. pic.twitter.com/YLtCQZzxrb

Awesome clip, it's been very gratifying to see Pritchard firing on all cylinders after how he started the year. Cs have 3 days off now, playing Minnesota and the Kat Bevs on Sunday. A little sad tbh to have such a long break when their momentum is so huge. But I'll take it.

We've reached that time of year when you can look at the remaining schedule and start penciling in Ws and Ls. 2 big games left for the Celts against the teams they're jockeying with, both nationally televised - Miami on Wednesday and then Milwaukee 2 weeks from today, second to last game of the season. The Bucks have a brutal schedule moving forward, I think we catch them before then. That game could be huge. Without any analysis, just eyeballing what's left the Heat and Sizers have a lot of cake games, feels like the Cs end up in 3rd which seems ideal. I'm not as scared of the Brooklyn bogeyman as some but would still prefer the Cavs/Bulls/Raps.

One cool thing about the play-in is that it really cuts down on jockeying for opponents, so much is unknown. Ppl seem to be assuming the Nets will face #2 but if you combine the odds of them losing the first play-in game and them falling into 9th altogether (admittedly feels unlikely after the Hornets shit the bed against the Knicks last night), they could certainly end up against #1.

yeah was thinking the same re trying to avoid the nets

and yeah great to see pritchard get cooking not getting regular minutes was obvs fucking with him earlier in the season but i think also the celtics offense as a whole was pretty bad so it wasnt generating the clean looks he needs and then all of that was messing with his confidence, now hes getting pretty close to just launching every time he has a window which is what he should be doing, ive noticed they position him pretty far behind the 3pt line a lot really trying to stretch the defense out and it seems like it gives him a lot of different shots to step or roll into too

the famous idea in the nba is that where you are on christmas day is generally reflective of where you'll end up. seems like it's getting less and less true.

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams is feared to have suffered a meniscus tear in his left knee, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. It could lead to an indefinite absence, which would be a tough loss for the Celtics as Williams is shining as the starting center this season.

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) March 28, 2022

brb im going to light myself on fire

well thats depressing

god fucking dammmit

fuuuuuuuck

the boston celtics have died

:(

Not cool, time lord's meniscus

celtics took toronto to overtime in toronto without any of their guys lol

this take is giving me life!!

theyre not quitting!

at the time the Theis trade seemed a little too much for the getting the band back together vibez and not enough for actual basketball value. damn glad it happened now though!

true, wonder what their rotations gonna look like now, horf/grant starting theis at backup center with smaller lineups eg tatum at the 4

prob close with a horf/tatum frontcourt

lotta minutes for horf.

this is your time to shine, batman

UMMMMMMM

Celtics confirm Woj report that Rob Williams is expected to return in 4-6 weeks after having a partial left knee meniscectomy in Boston today.

— Jared Weiss (@JaredWeissNBA) March 30, 2022

that's massively risky but i guess it depends on how the playoffs is going

its jus a very small tear nbd its fine

very curious to find out if they did one of the procedures that gets you back quicker but could lead to issues down the line or if they just got lucky with the severity of the tear

A meniscectomy (I've had one) is where they cut the torn part off of the rest of the meniscus. It's quicker healing, but you lose part of the meniscus. A meniscus repair is where they sow the torn part back to the meniscus, which preserves the meniscus, but is a much longer recovery time. I'm fairly certain nearly all athletes opt for the former, but I could be wrong.

they usually assess based on the severity of the injury. i don't think doing the trim necessarily leads to issues down the road, but my concerns are more around rob being a slow healer and relying so much on leaping ability.

Re: Robert Williams, I'm always skeptical of any meniscus surgery timeline shorter than 8 weeks. And if he does come back faster, we've seen guys like Metta World Peace, Mo Harkless, and Brandon Roy who pushed back for the playoffs have major issues going forward.
