Most to us we have thousands of you guys watching our videos every single day so if you want to make sure you stay up to date on the daily Boston Celtics content and coverage hit the Subscribe Button as you definitely will not regret it but let’s dive into this news at hand today

Make sure to grab a snack it is going to be a jam-packed episode as we dive in looking at Xavier Tillman speaking out since being traded now I think this is very great and very cool to see we haven’t seen Jaden Springer say that much he hasn’t been interviewed but him

And Xavier tman were both seen at the Celtic shoot around today they are with the team and even though they are not playing in tonight’s matchup I do expect both of these guys to be some contributors to this bench unit as they are youngish pieces and I do expect them

To be thrown in some lineups here and there and I think that this will do wonders for the Boston Celtics but let’s look in see what Xavier had to say this is courtesy of Celtics the Celtics uh Twitter looking at TD Garden welcoming a Xavier Tillman coming in into Boston

Pregame live starts at 6:30 but that is your first picture of Xavier tman in some green for you Celtics fans out there before we break into any more of this let me know what you guys think of the Xavier Tillman transaction the Boston Celtics made down in the comments

Section do you guys like this move for the Boston Celtics or do you guys think it was an unnecessary move I personally think it’s really very great for the Boston Celtics I liked him at Michigan State with his nice defensive stats and after his rookie season he looked like

He could finish around the rim and be a decent three-point shooter we’ve obviously seen him struggle with that offensive side of the game but I think playing with guys like Christof porzingis and Al Horford two of the better offensively talented bigs in this league I think it will do wonders for a

Guy in Xavier tman and if he can develop a little bit of a jump shot I think that he could be even better and a bigger steal for the Boston Celtics future but if we want to keep diving in we can look at some more tweets saying that from

Marcus Smart was the main thing he told me was once you show that you’re willing to hustle the fans are going to love you after after after that and that’s what he had to say following talking with Marcus Smart as we mentioned he is from Memphis being acquired from there and

Obviously Marcus Smart was just recently traded there but that is some great aders great adversary news to hear from Marcus Smart as we all know Marcus Smart was the guy that laid everything out on the floor for the Boston Celtics from hustle plays making charge calls doing

Everything on the defensive side of the ball and showing that hustle and kind of what made me appreciate him and really love him as a Boston Celtics fan so I would really like to see a guy like Xavier tomman kind of embrace that and be a guy like that for this Celtics team

As we just lost Marcus Smart this off season we don’t really have a guy that does that I know that Jordan Walsh talked about how he wanted to heavily prioritize that and be a big and focus on that as a big focal point on his game

Of being a hustle guy we haven’t really seen Jordan Walsh crack that rotation for the Celtics this season maybe we’ll wait and see it next year but a guy like Xavier tman who I think is NBA ready and a guy that can crack the rotation for the Celtics in some sporadic minutes on

Some defensive lineups I think if he shows that hustle and that tenacity these fans will really really like him and I already am a big fan of Xavier to and I think he’s going to be fit in perfectly with this team in the schemes

That they want to run having him to be a big man four five I know that he’s a little bit smaller to play the five but he can play the five in some situations but having him in some nice defensive lineups with Al Horford Kristof porzingis I think could do like I said

Wonders for this team and this front Court depth is looking really solid for this Boston Celtics team as we get kind of diving into it obviously the Celtics this season have guys in Jordan Walsh O’Shea brassette now they have a guy in Xavier Tilman adding to Luke cornette a

Guy in Al Horford and chrisop porzingis that’s six solid bigs and front court options that you can use to have some versatility in some of these lineups throwing a b if you want to go really defensive a brasset and Tilman possibly even a brasset Horford or you know you

Can have that lineup which is the normal lineup with Horford and porzingis or even a nice lineup with cornette in and throwing in Tilman I don’t know I want to see these expiration um experimentations happened with the Boston Celtics in this front court and I know Joe moula is definitely excited

He’s sitting there like this really really happy to have so much depth to utilize because with the Boston Celtics we kind of saw with Lamar Stevens and Delano Banton that they wanted to do that with some of those guys we saw Lamar Stevens have his best game for the

Boston Celtics playing the small ball five when they were depleted at the front court options we’ve also saw Delano Banton have some big moments Off the Bench with the Boston Celtics sometimes even coming in as the first guy off the bench in some nights so I do

Think that Joe moula wanted these guys to thrive and wanted them to be successful it’s just that their role wasn’t that great and they are successful guys don’t get me wrong they are in the NBA they’re way better at basketball than I will ever be trust me

But compared to some other NBA stars and compared to the other guys that we got I think that guys in Jaden Springer and zavier Tillman have a little bit more upside than guys in Lamar Stevens and Delano Bon but let’s not hype on them as

Much I want to wish them the best of luck in their Endeavors in Memphis and Portland I really liked what I saw of both of those guys Mar Stevens being great from Cleveland Bon being from Toronto want to wish them the best of luck but as we continue on looking at

Xavier Tilman here we can see that this tweet is from Noah Delle saying that Xavier tman wants to move his was talking all smiles at the first Celtics preseason at the first presser talked about how it would be adjustment for his family kids who all need to find a new

School he also said that he wants to get his family to Boston ASAP app he wants to make sure his that his family can get here and get all situated and that’s obviously a little bit of a complicating thing to deal with as an athlete especially transitioning through the

Season and being on a restricted free agency deal looming in the future it’s definitely tough for a guy in Xavier tman doesn’t know where he’s going to be honestly next year either so definitely trying to figure out some things from his aspect but I think that’s great as

Well kind of shows that he’s ready to buy into this Boston Celtic team and Boston Celtic culture unfortunately though for Xavier Tillman there is a little bit of downside says he still has time to heal his left knee and there’s no timetable from his return this is

From John corales but he also mentioned that saying that he needs to kind of figure out where he’s going to come back and fit in with this team once he’s fully healthy that’s why he’s not running today and that’s why he won’t be running for a little bit in the future

There’s no timetable on his return doctors are having a little bit of a trouble finding out what was really going on with his NE Memphis so hopefully the Celtics staff can actually figure this out get him served long term and then the Celtics can really really

Utilize him as a great piece but the last thing I want to mention is this from t snow right here which is the big piece that I want to take from this Xavier Tillman says that he always watch the Boston Celtics in terms of their winning history back when kg and all

Those guys were reportedly going to the Eastern Conference Finals I always imagined myself so far for that opportunity to be a part of a winning organization and that it’s pretty awesome and I want to say zavier tomman thank you for that recogniz recognization I realistically think it’s

Amazing as well for the boss and Celtics to be able to have that and for a guy like you to want to buy into that role of being like a kgs guy I think that would be perfect obviously not the offensive versatility but the defensive

Stats are there for a guy in Tilman I really think that this guy Xavier Tillman could be a beast for the Boston Celtics and I want to know what you guys think in the comment section down below like I mentioned unfortunately he’s not suiting up for the Celtics in tonight’s

Game versus the Washington Wizards and you guys will be seeing this tomorrow so it might be a look little weird but unfortunately he’s not stting up for the Celtics in tonight’s game but we’ll have to wait and see how when he comes back for the Celtics team and I really think

He’ll make an impact for this roster Brad Stevens perform some more masterclass moves bringing guys like Jaden Springer and Xavier tman once Jaden Springer speaks out we’ll get a little bit of news on him I do know that Xavier Tillman did pick his number I

Believe it is number 26 and that is some key information as well thank you guys so much for tuning into this episode of Celtics digest I’m Bruce VZ and I’ll catch you guys in the next one peace out
