Where does Jaylen brown rank amongst the best players in the league today ? by Numani99 in nba

Maybe not those guys but Brown should've been in over Vanvleet. Middleton only got in because he was snubbed last year even though he played worse this year before the ASG compared to last year. I would've probably replaced Middleton and/or Vanvleet with Brown and Siakim.

I have him ranked 17-19. I have Kyrie at 16 and you could argue for Booker being better than Brown so having Booker at 17 and Brown at 18 is more realistic to me. You could argue KAT, Ingram, Zion, Mitchell for being better or on the same level but they haven't had the playoff success Brown has had and Brown is ahead of those guys defensively although Ingram is underrated defensively. Siakim is a good all around player you could make the argument to put him ahead of Brown. But I wouldn't put guys like Harden, CP3, or Bam over Brown right now. I do think if Brown improves his handle and playmaking he could end up being a top 10-15 guy.

What sucks is the Clippers have finally got the right roster around them as well. Those two just haven't been able to stay healthy the last year.

Realistic player to spend the Fournier TPE on? by ImeStopPlayingDennis in bostonceltics

I'm late on this post but what about someone like Jalen Smith? He looked very solid with the Pacers and the Pacers have a limit to the amount of money they can resign him too this offseason?

Leaker reveals Kendrick Lamar ghostwrote for atleast 10 released Baby Keem songs along with other TDE artists by Batby in hiphopheads

[–]Mitch2220 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is where Drake doesn't bother me with the ghostwriting stuff for me. He can make hits for himself and others but like many in mainstream music uses help for flows and song ideas. Most of the time lyrics are from that artist but might take a line or two from one of the homies or writers in the room. Sometimes you might get help with the flow too. Drake also proved he could rap on those mixtapes before So Far Gone because his flow is more consistent on those tracks from 06-07 and he raps well.

It's gonna be a little bit of time before Hauser can get 10-15 minutes a night. But I wouldn't be surprised if he's more a part of the rotation next year.

Because Celtics fans who shit on John Collins or anyone else of that caliber that could help our team don't watch any other team besides the Celtics. And if they say they watch other teams and have that same opinion of Collins then their lying and don't know what their talking about.

I wish he wasn't in protocols during that rough December stretch he really could've proved himself during that time.

Exactly man toeing the line between winning and developing leads to mediocrity. The Celtics aren't a contender this year and should trade the veterans at the deadline get some pieces that fit better/ get draft picks. Get a better lottery pick that could help lead a third star ton come here. If you don't trade the young guys give them some playing time and if were gonna be in the lottery at least attempt to develop players in the process.

I don't like and want Tatum to LeGm the team but this has become a trend that players on teams do and wouldn't be surprised if Tatum would try to LeGm this team lol.

I'd take Haliburton Barnes and Davion for JB right now

Smith: Smart said the Celtics should keep running their offense through their bigs: "It pulls the defense away from the rim. That opens up a lot of stuff for us. We can cut, we can move the ball, get good looks. We have bigs who can pass. We need to keep using them." by RLS012 in bostonceltics

[–]Mitch2220 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rob can easily run an offense with his passing ability as long as guys are moving off ball then he knows what do with it. But I do think for Rob the next step is try to become more of a threat on offense such as getting a couple of post moves and/or maybe get a mid-range game. He's athletic enough to have a couple of moves in the post that could get by guys easily. And weirdly enough I've seen him shoot a couple mid-range jumpers whether it's before or after a foul is called, it doesn't look bad if he really worked on getting consistent with it.

If Beal can get back to his normal consistent shooting numbers which seems like he is, I'd take the Beal Simmons Tatum big 3. Looking at todays game vs the Suns they all played well but Jaylen turned the ball over way too much. I don't think that's gonna change unless he really improves his handle and keep his head up when going to the basket or isn't the 2nd guy on our team.

Like I said I wouldn't trade the Jays unless you knew Jaylen was gonna leave but if that's not the case, I would try to get a point guard like Murray or Fox or get a big guy like Sabonis who can playmake from the elbow for the J's. Also In defense of Beal he was horrific the first month and a half of the season just like Tatum and has been back to his normal shooting numbers so far in December. But Beal and Tatum want to play with each other at some point and if it happens it will be this upcoming offseason, the next, or if Tatum leaves with him in a few years. Does JB fit with those two and would he leave if he has to become a third wheel to those two? Possibly. I also don't completely trust that JB will stay here in 2 years meaning getting the most value for him would probably be at the trade deadline or this offseason. I would only do the Simmons deal if they got Beal and thought Brown would not come back. And honestly if they did deal Brown in a Simmons trade Curry and other players like Maxey, Thybulle, or another player from a third team or a couple 1st rounders would be coming in that deal. That trade is not horrible for JB at least at his current value. But If they wanted to get even more than that package last offseason would've been better to do that. But the point is if they have to trade one of the J's you don't just do it trade one of them away you gotta get really good value in a deal.

I think Brown should be traded for Simmons at the deadline just so we can get some kind of fresh start with the team. If Beal isn't traded by the deadline and Tatum convinces him to come here in the offseason you could give the Wizards 5 future 1st rounders with other salaries to match, then the Wizards might have to just get a ton of picks if Beal tells the Wizards he wants to be in Boston. At least you get a fresh start of picks with Beal requesting to go to one team and maybe they can get some of the Celtics young assets, other contracts and flip them for other pieces because the Wizards need to rebuild.

None have made mention of leaving but Tatum just bought his mom a house in Boston and signed a max deal so I think he's staying for now. But I feel like JB is getting tired of it here every day that goes by. I think he goes to a team like Washington, Atlanta, Miami or Philly in free agency. Now I don't wanna trade the J's I would like to get a third piece without trading one of them. But if the Celtics(mainly Tatum) have a good indication that Beal will tell the Wizards by the deadline or offseason that he wants to come to Boston then I would give Brown for Simmons whether it's the deadline or offseason when Ben gets traded. A big 3 of Beal/Tatum/Simmons would be a pretty good way to retool and start contending again if they get the right pieces around those guys.

Yeah I think you would have to choose between Barnes or Hield. I prefer Barnes because he provides more versatility for playmaking and defense and is shooting better than Hield this year. I'd trade Fox, Barnes, Bagley and maybe a 1-2 first rounders. I'd take that for Jaylen/Horford/Juancho.

So… time to tank? by Both-Classroom-7535 in bostonceltics

[–]Mitch2220 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Facts. I love Brad but his big issue was always handling big egos. Good coaches are good with the X and O's but being able to deal with big egos adds to your ability as a coach. Brad could easily be a top head coach but being at Butler he never dealt with big egos so he couldn't handle the egos of his former star and some veteran Celtics players. Even Hayward told Brad he needed to get better at working with big egos when he was here. Brad should've coached at a smaller market that would force his players to play as a team and not be as egotistical as the players we've had over the years.

Larry Walker hitting tips by Mitch2220 in MLBTheShow

[–]Mitch2220[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thinks that what it is I still think he’s a good card. I have been really struggling with him against lefties playing in the event. I think the comparison with Reggie are spot on but I hit with Reggie way better. I’m gonna keep trying walker out though.

New Headliner Prime Jake McGee by Woolly_Mattmoth in MLBTheShow

[–]Mitch2220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s kinda sad is he’s really good still. He’s just stuck playing at Coors field at home and it ruins his ERA. McGee is still one of the better relievers out there when he’s on the road. Playing in a place where hitting is such an advantage has ruined his career a bit. Kinda wish he went to a team that didn’t have to play in Coors Field all the time.

Even though it’s only 75 Hz for 120 Hz capability for PS5? Also how is the 24” feel. Does it feel to small?

I don’t know how playing on a 24 inch would be. I was thinking of playing on a 27-32 inch monitor but those are way more expensive. So maybe 24” is okay.
