Celtics (55-14) at Pistons (12-57) Game #70 3/22/24

[SCeltic34]

Awesome win.  Don't care if it's against one of the worst teams in the league.  Great job by Joe and the players.

All about the D tonight.

Still think we should hang onto Queta for a year or two.  Lock his ass in the practice center and see what happens.  His combo of size and fluidity is unteachable and he flashes some intriguing instincts.  Loved that little bounce pass to Walsh for the dunk.

I’m pretty sure the plan is to sign him up to a multi year contract. He can’t be on a 2 way next season so i think they either sign him as the 15th man this season or match any reasonable offer he may get in the off season.

Drew, put a sock in it already. Yeesh

Maybe I'm getting old but I would really prefer if Drew focused a little bit more on just talking about the game and less on his little bits.

He’s 22 years old, he gets excited

Yeah, seriously. I’m not interested in hearing backstory on Pistons bench players. Sometimes he tries too hard.

I look at Queta similar to how I see Hauser's growth. Might take 1-2 more years but he's a nice young developmental piece to have. A full offseason of work and some experience can help him and maybe turn him into a useful role player similar to what Hauser's become. Hauser wasn't seen as much in 2021 but he's grown and also isn't a pure liability on defense which is a plus.

I think the idea is that once the next 4-5 years are up and we're paying some of our supermax guys, guys like Queta, Tillman, Springer, maybe Hauser can remain on cheap deals to support the main guys, given the luxury tax limitations.

Cs can win without shooting lights out from 3.  Shot 35.6% tonight. but 52.8% overall.
