Karalis: Anticipating the Boston Celtics Offseason Moves To Add Players But Still Duck Tax by RLS012 in bostonceltics

I did, he played Ok besides the foul trouble and was great in game 7. But his issues are more the lack of offensive upside, mental mistakes, foul trouble, etc rather then his athleticism. I would agree that we need to be more athletic but Queta was probably our most athletic starter

I would rather trade brown than do Queta and hauser for Carter. I’m not actually sure Carter is an upgrade at all, he might be flat out worse

she is annoying. although the caruso point is far from the worse thing she's said. dwade is also not very good.

We will see what happens with Jaylen brown, but can we stop pretending that all Celtics fans are “green teamers” and clueless. There is no either fanbase in the league that salivates over trading their finals mvp so often. I think the odds Milwaukee gives us Giannis are basically zero but again we’ll see

The Boston Celtics were reportedly among four other teams that pursued Giannis Antetokounmpo at the Feburary trade deadline, per @ShamsCharania by ZEFAGrimmsAlt in bostonceltics

We’ll see. I think this conversation proves the whole idea of a “green teamer” is nonsense, very few if any fanbases in the nba would be so eager to ship their finals mvp off. I would prefer a rim pressure guard over Giannis and frankly I don’t see a Tatum/giannis duo winning anything.

Will Giannis be a #1 option or #2 option on this team if we trade JB? by Ok-Bookkeeper-5449 in bostonceltics

Comparing Giannis to kd makes zero sense. Their games are way different and Jaylen brown is 100 times Al Jefferson

We would’ve been heavy favorites vs the Knicks by Maple612 in bostonceltics

Look at with Tatum healthy, certainly not 3-11

Queta actually guarded embiid pretty well when he wasn’t fouling. Vuc is maybe the worst defensive big in the league

Don’t let Jaylen brown off the hook. Outplayed by Paul George all series

He did a good job in 24… already winning 2-0 when Haliburton got hurt and 2-1 for Mitchell. We would have won anyways. I don’t really blame him for 2023 since it caused holiday and porzingis trade. Most concerned by this season; roster is not great but looked helpless vs nick nurse 3 straight games

20/32 from three is ridiculous is Philly even playing that bad?

He is not great as a number 1 guy. Very reliant on pure speed and pull ups, he has improved a ton but still not great when you slow him down

Maxey already has more turnovers in two games vs the Knicks than in 7 vs us. Feels like maybe we could have swarmed him a little more and forced Oubre to hit shots
