The Official BigFooty Boston Celtics Thread

[Memphis]

Still intrigued by Love, but he wants to be traded to Portland.

It does look like we will have to give up Gordon Hayward if we are any realistic chance to nab a big man.

Lol i said this earlier about hayward and most people were against me now they realise.

 

[Memphis]

Small ball is going to kill us in the playoffs, nothing surer. As great a coach as Brad is his disdain of quality rebounding bigs is a major blindspot of his and the issue is that Ainge and the rest of the organisation fully endorses it. Not making more of an effort to retain Baynes and allowing Horford (our most important player) to walk to our biggest rivals was criminal.

Kill us? we'll be lucky to get through philly or the bucks in the playoffs.

Surely it won’t take someone like Hayward to get a deal over the line for a Half way decent rim protector.

As much as I love Hayward he’s just too unreliable on the injury front. He’s out again today.

I'm trading him first before either smart or brown.
It's been a sad story for him to i do feel sorry for him.

Kanter the pimp.

Congratulations KG on the nomination for the hall of fame.
Well deserved.

How good was the crowd going nuts for Taco

Kemba realizing its just not his night, puts the team ahead of himself with a selfless performance.
Not down on himself,smiling away and providing passes to his teammates.
What a team player.

Jaylen Brown and Tatum looking like the players they were two years ago when Kyrie was out injured.

[Jack Richards]

I say he blocked that shot!

 

[Memphis]

The future is in good hands.

 

[Memphis]

If only grant will was at least 6'8 6'9 man he'd unstoppable on the glass.

 

[Memphis]

Monster game from JT.

And flogs (mainly non Celtics fans) still say we still should have traded Tatum for Anthony Davis (for a one season rental)

Bought myself a Tatum black and green alternate jersey the other day (they have em at Rebel Sport) and I am rocking it all during Christmas and New Year's

It would've been the worst trade in the celtics history.

 

[Memphis]

My favourite play of the game.

 

[Jack Richards]

How bad is Smart's pink eye that he has missed nearly 3 weeks of game time? Jeez.

 

[Soups]

This is seriously wow.

Love Stephen A's assessment that the team are loving playing together and its all due to Kemba's leadership and making the locker room a place where people want to be.

Do we really want to upset this with trading our core blokes?
Hayward is playing great
Brown and Tatum career best years

We lost most of our trade assets last year. I'd deal in draft picks and Theis only.

I agree, upsetting this balance may be costly. Do we really need a big when we are top 5 for both offense and defense? I think letting this core group continue to develop and evolve will be good enough come playoffs.

Yes, because Philly will destroy us without one
