CELTICS 2010

agree the sixers will look different without joel haha

been thinking about it and jrue might have the best q rating among front offices of any player, great guy, plays both ways, winner, fits everywhere—probably explains some of the head-shaking from a portion of the 28 other execs who want him on their team.

yeah true hes a gms dream

I would like to take one more shot with a reconfigured roster after this year, but I'm fine with trading Joel if it doesn't work out.

it feels like hes ready to ask out

all things considered he prob wouldve already done it if he werent such a local hero

Mandatory, I hate the Celtics. This team will be a nightmare.

thank you the kevins

lil loosey goosey

this is not a meaningful clip please dont feed the kevins

i’m ready to start overreacting to this celtics team, let’s goooooooo

:)

bought tix to take my daughter for her birthday to the thunder game on 4/3/24. pretty stoked, haven't been to a game since the kyrie era, and this will be her first. i knew for sure that my determination to make a fan out of her had paid dividends when i saw the look of horror on her face after i told her they traded rob. "don't worry, you're gonna like jrue" i told her. "dad i know who jrue holiday is" she answered

niice

This team will be a nightmare.

but only so long as everybody stays healthy. they're really, really not built to sustain a serious injury to anybody.

theyre a lil shallow they lost four rotation players and replaced them with two, but being shallow is not unique amongst current contenders, and they have some ability to add another dece guy, suspect theyll roll with what they have to start see if any of bench guys step up then address whatever concerns arise later

great

that video gets at something i was thinking about, which goes back to i think jordan talking about how the celtics needed somebody who could set up their kitchen, could “get to their spots” and cook, and i feel like jrue can do that, particularly those little middie moves

jrue one of those guys i always assume is a few years older than he is. probably because his first team change was really early

yeah and he entered the league at 19 and played right away so it feels like he’s been around forever

he made an allstar team in philly too then was banished to new orleans

underrated terrible process trade 22 y/o allstar for nerlens noel and the pick that became elfrid payton

thats the process baby

everyone thought he was getting traded for sure, instead the guys in front of him got traded, sometimes its like that

weirdly good preseason game, teams playing harder than many official games, little rusty from a skill perspective but pretty good overall

pritchards the only guy who can dribble or get a shot on the court in the fourth and he is embracing the role lol, kudos to him

and with 50 seconds left up by three he ices it

same day he signs his new contract — game. pic.twitter.com/Fx0ThLxX1B

$30 million of confidence baby!

gotta love it

gotta say i agree with joe on this one, many guys wouldn't have done well with the hand payton was dealt

Joe Mazzulla said Payton Pritchard is one of his favorite people. Said the league can break people who go through ups and downs like Pritchard has, but he’s a tough SOB and never let it get him down.

ok sounds good lol

At the onset of training camp, Mazzulla mapped out a revamped “tribal” structure for his coaching staff. His assistants are assigned into groups of three or four to improve the equity in how coaches communicate with players and how ideas move up the chain of command.

“By the time we get to a full team meeting, we’ve already had a group of people argue, go over and talk about their philosophy and what they want to do,” Mazzulla said on media day. “Then it’s my job to tell them no, but it’s my job to listen to them. So I think just creating that environment of that tribal leadership, that togetherness, that ownership. It’s something that I’m really excited to do.”

jeff van on board

Now they can throw Jeff Van Gundy into the mix, who has been brought in as a senior consultant for all basketball matters. He’ll be operating behind the scenes, sitting in on player and coaches meetings to provide a bird’s eye view and unbiased perspective, according to Mazzulla.

its crazy how jared weiss of the athletic is just transcribes what mazzulla tells him and calls it an article

That’s part of why Cassell makes perfect sense for Tatum. While there’s still room to grow his game, Tatum’s limit at this point of his development trajectory will be determined more by his mindset than skill. He needs someone there every day to remind him what it takes to lead a contender that actually goes all the way. If there’s anyone who will happily be in his ear every day, it’s Sam Cassell.

not saying the celtics can't win a chip with joe maz running the show, but let's just say i'm becoming increasingly confident that it will be in spite of rather than because of his galaxy brain

i feel like he might be a good coach its possible i just cant stand the success wins mindset type shit

if he were to somehow be replaced with current assistant coach charles lee who i dont really know anything about other than his vibe seems preferable that would be fine with me

btw re mindset talk i was watching the bucks lakers game last night and granted it was a preseason game but doris and the play by play guy were just going nuts with that shit totally ignoring the action of the game to pump up how darvin hamm was providing the right culture for cam redish to succeed, i mean ok probably not

doris has gotten extremely soft as her profile has grown.

doris loves culture

if ive got to listen to nonsense id much rather it be jeff van complaining about how supermarkets suck or whatever

jvg in the house, i love it!!

i do think mazzulla might not be playing with a premium edition of quizlet, if you know what i mean
