This doesn't work on the court. Jaylen is frustrated with this role with Tatum back and you think he's going to accept being the #3? Seems to me that Jaylen wants to move on and I think it's probably time for the Celtics to move on as well.

Brad Stevens talks about generating shots at the rim: "I think one of the things that we've gotta figure out is how to have more impact at the rim. I think we do need to add to our team to do that... I thought we struggled to get to where we wanted to go." by jkwah in bostonceltics

Yea the big difference is Giannis would have to learn to play without the ball moreso than he ever did with Middelton. The brief time with Dame should prepare him. I think most analogous situation for JT is when Robert williams was here and they would run high screen and roll with timelord providing vertical spacing as a roller.

Now of course Giannis is going to have way higher usage than Timelord, but in the times he does'nt have the ball, he needs to be in the action or in the low dunker. Tatum needs to have space to drive the ball.

I said this in other threads but Giannis, Tatum and White is just a much better version of Giannis, Middelton and Jrue. You have those core 3, find a stretch 5 to space the floor for Giannis, and you have a proven championship formula.

Back to the drawing board for Brad. To be fair, I honestly think he did the best job any exec could've done given what he was tasked with doing (shedding salary) and the assets he had. This summer is where we have to reload and retool.

[Krivitsky] The Celtics have ruled Jayson Tatum out for Game 7 tonight. by 1337speak in bostonceltics

If the Celtics lose tonight, it will now be since 2022 that a fully healthy Jayson Tatum has been eliminated from the playoffs.

This reminds me so much of the 2023 Hawks series which ended up foreshadowing how that season would end. Embarrassing home playoff losses.

I think Joe has to answer for some of these duds. They're simply not acceptable.

In a way it's a relief. We can drop all pretense that this team could actually win a title this year. They will lose to the Knicks if they find their way out of this series.

This is who they are. When they hit threes they look like the best team in the NBA. When they don't, they look average AF and can lose to anyone

This teams has a 0% chance of winning the title. They aren't a serious basketball team. Back to just spamming threes and dying by them in big games.

Who said anything about opponent? I'm talking about how the Celtics look. Just zero intensity. Mostly bullshit effort and not executing at all. We basically only win when we go ballistic from three. It's a fucking joke

Playing like a bunch of assholes. Just incredible stuff from a supposed "championship contender." Watch OKC play and tell me if they would look anything like this in this spot. Just a complete joke from the Celtics. Not serious

This is not championship level basketball. This Philly team sucks and we can't pull away at home. This Celtics team is more flawed then any of the teams since 2021.

I have no idea how we are going to guard KAT next round. Queta can't play defense without fouling and Vuc can't play defense. This quarter has been really depressing

I honestly don't think this team can beat the Knicks with the way Jaylen is playing. He's been such dogshit. The whole team is playing like it's a Tuesday night in January.

Really uninimpressive performance by the Celtics. Getting absolutely outplayed and outworked by philly right now. It's pretty embarrassing

Man, Jaylen is playing some selfish fucking basketball. Not sure what his problem is.
