I would love Lauri more than anything. Siakam is my number 3 behind him and Ingram. The unfortunate part about Pascal is that it’s obviously going to take until next year to get him, because Masai is an absolute pain in the ass to deal with on the trade block. Who the fuck turns down 4 firsts for OG? 😂. Also, team needs to take care of business these next two games. 10-6 wouldn’t sound bad at all. Can’t lose to the Pistons and Blazers. Something about the Pistons makes me worry though. Especially Duren against our soft ass defense
I think their putting buddy back out starting for trade value. Him sitting off the bench presents no value. I also think the pacers do know the hali hield duo doesnt help but hoping some team jumps for him. Problem with mathurin he does need the ball to show his potential but with hali hes 3rd maybe 4th option and hes cold by that time as he takes time to heat up. This team needs a trade bad because the defense is so lackluster. Siakam is our man
I love Benn and hope he just hit that 2nd year slump, but definitely looks lost out there rn.. even in lineups where there have been spacers around him. So many possessions where when he gets the ball, he hesitates and assesses for too long, like he lost some confidence. Gotta make quicker decisions. His work ethic is too good for him to settle for less, so I’m sure he’ll gain that confidence back
I still think long-term Mathurin needs to be the starter, but I understand why Rick is trying something different given what's been going on. I don't necessarily agree with the decision, but it does make some sense. Also, I think Mathurin off the bench will be a bit better once TJ isn't playing- like you said he can't shoot lmao.
Side note – Siakim is a beast and we better go after him in free agency. He'd help with a lot of our issues.
The lack of defense is driving me crazy. The fact that they can’t string together multiple stops is the reason they are only 8-6. They could easily be 11-3 if they could have just got some stops at home against the Bulls, Hornets, and Raptors.
Buddy Hield is trash. He has been nothing but a shooter his entire career and we move the future to the bench to help the 30 year old who can’t figure it out.

I’ll telling y’all….!!! Mathurin, Hield, McConnell, Jackson and 3 firsts to the Celtics for Jaylen Brown!! That’s the move..!!! Cmon y’all

I'm really trying to teach my old ass to accept that the game doesn't revolve around defense any more and is just run and shoot…run and shoot.
Maybe Ben is alittle overrated maybe he’s not that guy but I believe in him I feel they should stop pulling him and let him learn how to be a starter

This defense is embarrassing we need to get someone asap we aren’t good until this defense is fixed
I’m ready for us to swing for the fences not gonna lie lol tired of sitting back and looking at other teams make moves
