Hi Brad, I'm your #1 fan
sad to see marcus go…
in brad we trust
MULTIPLE Deadly Lineups now = White/Brown/Tatum/KP/Rob
Brog/White/Brown/Tatum/KP
White/Brown/Tatum/Al/KP
(Possible Bench lineups) Pritchard/Brog/?/Al/Kornet
Pritchard/Brog/?/Kornet/Rob
Definitely gotta get another wing player in free agency!!
Brad is a smooth talker and I hope this turn out to be a good move but smart was more than a good player . He was the glue of the Celtics and the only tough person I’m this team. Who is going to be the tough guy next year 5:00
I hate watching Brad Stevens press conferences. He's like the reverse Bill belichick he Save-A-Lot while releasing nothing while Bill belichick just says nothing, But Bill belichick is more interesting and entertaining because in his shrewdness he's hilarious.
I believe Boston didn't want to trade Smart but was forced when their trade for Brogdon didn't materialize. For them, Porzingis was just too valuable to ignore.
you know…
Stevens is in over his head. He couldn't win as a coach & won't win from the front office either.
Brad "You Know" Stevens you know
Brad Mentions he saw Smart earlier in the day and proceeds to say "You're not going to be around a guy you like, Everday". So damn. I guess Smart doesn't like Brad much anymore huh. 🤔 lml
Still need a Defense and Rebounding Center and they need a True Point Guard and 1 more Wing player for the bench or Back up Small Forward
No one is falling for that trick again… Trading injury player for something. LMAO good thing clippers was smart enough to declined a injury player… Look at I.T lol
Until this Team figures-out, Why They continually Lose Focus, THEY WIL CONTINUE TO DISAPPOINT!
Right in the ole porzingases!
Malcom’s going to wait to see if he needs surgery just like Rob last year. Don’t expect him to start the year on the floor.
Love it. White earned the starting job. Changes needed to be made. The team took a step back last year. Marcus had his chance. I think the trade for Kristaps makes them best team in east (if they can stay healthy).
I was really hoping Jaime Jaquez Jr was at 25 (when Cs still had 25) but Heat got him at #18.
Brad drafted a player who is useless at this point in his career…!!! 🚮🗑️🚮🗑️🚮🗑️🚮🗑️#LongWayToGo
#CeltisSuckAtDevelopingPlayers
A franchise finally backed their coach over a player. Novel approach in modern NBA. Last time I can recall it happening was when Detroit backed Chuck Daly by trading away Adrian Dantley. Pistons went back to back but I don't see Mazzulla being a Hall of Fame coach nor Celtics winning.
I like the pick haul. Pick 35 turned into Pick 38, 2024 1st from GS, and 4 future 2nd rd picks.
Brad, you are a wizard!
I've always thought White should get more playing time. Marcus is a good player, NOT a great player. When he took shots away from Jalen and Jayson during critical moments, the team suffered.
