Bobby Marks give the Celtics an A for their offseason moves! ๐Ÿ‘€ | Get Up

free agency so let’s hand out some offseason grades Bobby I start with you what grade would you give the reigning Champion those Celtics well it’s got to be an a you the Jason Tatum supermax extension the Derek white signing they even brought the bandb Luke cornette and Xavier Tillman keep an eye out on a Sam Hower possible extension Brian they don’t even have to show up for school they can just come at the end of the year and show up for finals here so I give them an a can I just go pass or fail I Lov to those classes pass or fail classes yeah I gotta agree with Bobby I mean listen the window is open and we are going to dissect the opportunity and should they be the favorites again um they’re just really starting to hit their their Prime and their stride and so keeping this core together fantastic yeah I got to go with an A too okay you know this next team really well Monica what grade would you give the next uh I got a B+ on this one uh I really like the Mel Bridges Edition I have some concerns about the five position obviously Isaiah hardenstein getting paid in Oklahoma City and as he should I’d like to see them reinforce that position uh now here’s the thing though Mitchell Robinson was terrific before that injury in the fall he was terrific when he made his way back in the postseason and Julius Randall some kind of way I think people are forgetting about him as an interior reinforcement both scoring and defending Monica and I come from the same school of grading so I am going to give them a B+ also and I and I agree with her wholeheartly I think the biggest concern for me certainly the hartenstein loss is the durability of Mitchell Robinson as far as staying healthy throughout the season we’ll see if they can bring back precious to Chua they created some flexibility by reworking that M Mel Bridges trade but B+ for me okay um Bobby what about the Sixers they’ve certainly been aggressive what grade would you give them it’s an A minus I I’m not giving them an a right now because there’s still some work to do certainly Paul George and Tyrese Maxi and Kelly UB three big signings here but I’m interested to see what they do with their front Court they need some size here certainly need a starting power forward you know you talk about Paul George and certainly uh it’s been hyped all week long but one person who’s certainly not buying into it are Brian winhurst uh take a listen to what he had to say this is now the fourth time that you could say that he was a leading headline in the off Seas seon the previous three have led to what I’m tired of sitting here the first week of July and declaring that apul Georgia arrival changes the everything wow how about that Bobby are we overestimating you think the impact of Paul George well listen I think it’s different than when he went to Oklahoma City and then when he went to the Clippers the last time he he was traded here Paul George is walking into a sixer team where he’s the third best player he’s not the best player that’s Sha embiid he’s not the second best player that’s Tyrese Maxi so I think the expectations are a little bit different here in Philadelphia what do you think Monica o Bobby I don’t know here’s my thing we do I agree with Wendy calling this out because we keep doing this based on potential and at a certain point potential becomes an insult when it’s no longer realized right and so I had to go back and look this year Paul George planned 74 games changes how I feel a little bit about that conversation shot 47% from the field it feels feels like Philly is readymade but the combination of Philly’s Unfortunate Events when it comes to the postseason not getting past the second round and sort of the history of Paul George I don’t know that this is going to meet the expectations that folks have for it if that’s the case Bobby are the Sixers now good enough to overtake the Celtics no they’re not and neither are the Knicks I think Boston’s on an island by themselves right now I think the window to overtake Boston is going to be in 2025 26 when possibly the Celtics team could break up because of finances and so if we’re talking just the East Monica in your opinion what team is the biggest threat then to the Celtics gosh that’s that’s tough again you would look at this Sixers roster and probably say that they are built the best H it’s sort of debatable they need to figure out a couple things in terms of defense like Bobby just talked about but you would at least look at Joel embiid and say that’s a reigning MVP if he’s healthy right but do think when it comes to the Knicks they went out and got guys that could guard the Celtics particularly their core three if you want to call it that I mean you can stretch it out to four but interchange that third piece I do agree with Bobby that there’s still some distance to cover to me the X Factor in this conversation is going to be which unit has the best chemistry and the want to for one another and that’s where I would give the Knicks an advantage because obviously the villain Nova piece right and so we got to see Paul George two weeks ago I was just on we was on the show talking about it Paul George has discussed fit as something that he’s looking for and I just think in general I subscribed to based on the history of it the only time that the Superstar of Paul George’s caliber has worked as a centerpiece in year one was Toronto so even if this does work we’re more than likely not talking about it working this season uh Bobby your thoughts well listen I look back on certainly the 2010 Miami team and I know this is different than where Philadelphia is that team took a year to try to figure it out they didn’t win a championship until the F the following year when they beat when they beat Dallas here so I when they lost when they beat Oklahoma City and they lost to Dallas the first year so I I think it’s going to be I think it’s going to be a work in progress Brian I think certainly there’s going to be a name tag when we get to training camp basically everybody’s GNA have a name tag because there’s so many new faces [Music] [Applause] [Music]

  2. If Kristaps Porzingis stay healthy next season & consistent 2025 playoffs Boston big chance get #19 banner next season ๐Ÿ’ฏ no doubts ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ช

  4. Sixers arenโ€™t getting out the second rd again and itโ€™s going to be someone besides embids fault like always ๐Ÿ˜‚ nobody has ever gotten this many passes for failure in playoffs

  5. Watching these morning shows without Stephen A & Greenberg are haaaard to watch๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ All of these shows now have a corporate tone to it that's incredibly boring. There's no personality there. It's like it's give your take and stay to the script then break for commercial๐Ÿ˜ข I'm outโœŒ๏ธ

  6. I think the knicks are heavy in wing positions and this may come back to bite them. They were guard heavy a few years ago and they were just stuck.

  7. I still don't understand the hype around the 76ers. Embid & Paul consistently struggle to stay on the floor, plus they seem to get exposed during the playoffs. Can they even make a deep run in the playoffs being healthy, is the bigger question.
