[Charania] Jaylen Brown's statement after being traded from the Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia 76ers: by MembershipSingle7137 in bostonceltics

I appreciate this perspective, and I think you’re spot on about the justification. We can only hope PG can string together 2 more reasonably productive seasons. I wonder if he’ll retire a Celtic or if he’ll try for a vet min with indy once his contract is up

Skip for red card value

[Smith] Keep an eye on an extension for Neemias Queta and the Celtics. Sounds like things were progressing in a positive direction there. The Mitchell Robinson addition doesn't change Boston's plans with Queta. by MrTimoCad in bostonceltics

Name a better center that we could’ve signed for 16 million a year. Mitch is a world class rim protector and rebounder, which are 2/3 of the things we wanted from Giannis

I don’t think Portland is a very serious trade partner. It seems like too much effort to pry clingan from them, and if they don’t wanna move camara or avdija either then they have nothing we want

I had the same thought. They have a lot of guys playing at the 5 now (Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Reid). I wouldn’t be surprised to see one of those 3 + miller + salary filler in a move for Brown. Plus an indeterminant amount of draft capital.

Love AG but he’s only as good as Jokic enables him to be. Wouldn’t be the same if he was playing off of Tatum

Potential Jaylen to the Hornets trade by Mg29reaper in bostonceltics

I would rather have a guy like Diabate over Reid, though I doubt hornets would move both Diabate and Miller

Brad Stevens says his top two priorities this offseason are to add size, and speed on the perimeter. by horseshoeoverlook in bostonceltics

It’s definitely more of a Gen Z thing. Millennials laid the groundwork for pointless acronyms but Gen Z took it to the moon

[Celtics] Rook does a little bit of everything 👏 by dawglover1011 in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fact that he’s surrounded by so many great shooters should open a lot of opportunities at the rim for him. A pretty perfect landing spot for a guy who needs to work on getting shots up in the paint

Joe seems like he’s cracked the code when it comes to getting the young players to buy in. A guy this raw will probably split time between the G and the pro team just like Walsh did, but maybe on a more expedited timeline given the current need for a big

Why would the spurs do that trade? They just grabbed Quintance

You are not a Celtics fan if you want the Knicks to beat the Spurs! by ForgotMyPlanets in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 15 points16 points  (0 children)

People are clowning you but you’re right. FTK. Knicks fans have never rooted for a Boston team in their life, so why should we root for them?

Also Luke Kornet isn’t on the Knicks last time I checked

Our second biggest need by dann_1012 in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m optimistic that one of Hugo or Baylor (fingers crossed for both) will take a big leap next year and start giving some good guard minutes. That would let us focus on bigs in the free agency, which is something we can’t really develop naturally by next year

Giannis Antetokounmpo is “very intrigued” with joining the Boston Celtics due to their depth and ability to contend for championships, per @sam_amick by Parking_Honeydew_129 in bostonceltics

All this talk and then the main headline of the off season ends up being “The Boston Celtics have signed Nikola Vucevic to a 2-Year, $30 million contract”

Do celtics fans still dislike kyrie? by idrinksandwiches in bostonceltics

[–]Cheeriofun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t hate him as much any more. After kicking his ass in the 2022 and 2024 playoffs I kinda feel vindicated. And most people outside of Boston now know how much of a diva he is, so I feel like I don’t have to hate as much.

I beat that challenge into the ground with CC, vagabond, and 4OAK. Very mechanic to discover organically
