The Official BigFooty Boston Celtics Thread

[Memphis]

I love JBs confidence.

 

[Borough Blood]

And then shoots 33% against the Nets…

 

[Deliverance]

Reckon Hauser has upped his D this year

Nice trade by us. Gives badly needed depth at the 5 & pushes Queta to the bench. Sorry to see Anferno go but he would’ve walked for free at years end anyway. Prob need a back up guard Brad, job’s not done yet.

Brings us under the apron with an expiring contract for a big player who fits our rotation for this year perfectly. Brad Stevens is a salary cap genius.

Simons was good and I'm sad to see him go, but this trade makes a ton of sense.

We only save $6 mill or so. So if we trade Tillman and Boucher (both FA over the break and realistically third in line now for the PF/C depth chart at best) we can trade for and stay at a similar cap range is anyone under Aaron Holiday:

Any chance Tatum returns this season? After all star break?

 

[Deliverance]

Footage I've seen of him is very light on training. I'd be astounded to see him this year, but you never know. Maybe he has some super human recuperative powers.

 

[srobbo]

I’ve got no idea, but he’d have to make a call soon as he’ll need atleast the last 25% of the reg season for match conditioning/reintegrate himself into team.

Personally I hope he doesn’t & he’s ready to roll next season

 

[Jack Richards]

Boston send out
Minott
Boucher
Tillman

Bring in Amari Williams on a 2 year min contract

Just duck under the luxury tax

 

[eth-dog]

I think it brings options for a PG FA into the game next season. If we can go deep in the east we should be able to retain Vuc. Go into next year with:

PP, White, Brown, Tatum, Vuc
FA, Scheierman, Hauser, Walsh, Queta

Looks very solid. Interested in who we'd go after tbf

Cam Thomas?
London Ball?
Mike Conley?

 

[eth-dog]

Cam Thomas?
London Ball?
Mike Conley?

You mean Lonzo? Yeah, no way.

 

[Borough Blood]

Cam Thomas?
London Ball?
Mike Conley?

The forgotten Ball brother.
In all seriousness I’d be upset if we even thought about bringing in Cam Thomas.

 

[Jack Richards]

You mean Lonzo? Yeah, no way.

Yeah silly auto correct

 

[srobbo]

Nice debut by Vuc. Showcasing what we’ve missed with 2nd phase boards & creating scores from them. Reaso we got back in the game really & showed a nice chemistry with D White.

A 5 who can actually post up as well.

 

[Soups]

PP and Brown having a field day against The Lakers. Been fun to watch.

 

[srobbo]

Denver @ Colorado on friday on a b2b from Phoenix. That’ll tell us where we’re at.

 

[Borough Blood]

Nuggs on B2B who just had two days rest, happy to take the mulligan.

 

[Deliverance]

They wanted it more. Clearly fired up after the loss to GSW

 

[srobbo]

Can’t win them all. It was a trap spot, back end on a west coast swing & a b2b from Arizona, when they were 3 days rested after a bad loss.

OTTO.

 

[Deliverance]

Got to assume ramadan has an impact as well in hindsight.

 

[srobbo]

I’ve had enough of Schierman starting. PP has to come back in fold & Hauser gets phased out fo Tatum once he settle back in. Vuc has to start as well for Neemis.

Can’t get cute with the better sides as we keep finding out.
