Good close out today, really happy to see Jaylen & Gordy drive the win without Kyrie having to do alot.

Hopefully Smart can get back at some stage for the bucks series.

Hayward would be a conversation starter for AD at best. It’s all about who else goes with him & I guarantee Tatum would be step 2....forget AD it won’t be happening

We're near guaranteed the #1 pick in the lottery I believe? Kyrie plus pick 1 for AD. Have a roster of:

Terry, Brown, Tatum, Horford, AD
Smart, Hayward, Morris, Baynes

What & where does Kyrie go?

What & where does Kyrie go?

Wherever he wants. He's too selfish and it isn't as if we don't have PG depth. That's what we need to give up to get Davis.

Too selfish? Rubbish....what PG depth do we have? Rozier? He’s def not the answer. We need to retain him & look elsewhere for a 5. AD won’t be coming to boston I’ll tell you that much.

We would have to give up a lot (far too much?) for the Pels to agree to a deal.

Last year's playoffs he averaged 16.5 points, 5.7 assists all without Kyrie as a 23 year old. The guy can play. Smart is also a solid bench option.

Where on earth did you read that. We’d be lucky to sneak top 10

Sorry, 6 teams apparently have a better chance than us, and we have a 6% chance at #1 (from Memphis). I thought we had Phoenix's pick not Memphis' for some reason. We'll also have 20, 22 and if I'm reading it right either a top 14 pick or 24.

One month stretch of good form doesn’t validate him as a legit PG. He had no expectations on him & thrived, but has been woeful this year trying to meet the standards he set himself.

If you think him or smart are legit starting PG options long term, you’re kidding yourself.

Memphis is top 8 protected this year and conveys to top 6 protected next year, and unprotected the year after that. We also have the SAC pick top 1 protected this year, and clippers top 14 protected. So we could get 2 in the top 10 but very unlikely

No way would AD come here if Kyrie left. If we lose Kyrie you can say that the trade bonaza we got off nets was a waste.

 

[unclechopchop2]

What's with the lack of Celtics playoffs games on ESPN? I haven't seen any yet and there dont appear to be any ESPN games upcoming. Has anyone else noticed this?

 

[eth-dog]

Well, we have to beat everybody away from here to win it.

 

[srobbo]

Not a bad way to wake up Monday morn blowing out the bucks in their house.

I wouldn't say Tatum and Brown are a waste.

 

[Memphis]

Al horford making it known he is the most underrated player in the league.

And Smart.

Has had a super playoffs so far. So long as stays healthy, he’ll be a weapon.

 

[Squibbs]

Don’t hear anybody saying Average Al anymore. This dude is unreal, him and Kyrie are unstoppable in the pick and pop

Quite happy to swallow my pride and say I was in the anti-Al camp. Great that he's pulled the finger out and is performing when it counts.

Man won't we love it if we can get philly next round.

Let's get through this round first.

I've got high hopes.

Feel like our current series is the ECF, the other guys are just making up the numbers.
