I hope this doesn’t lead to Kyrie bashing
It’s already started

was this so called leader even at the game?
Rofl. Expecting someone to postpone their rehab to watch a game is a crazy expectation. What’s your problem with him? It’s clearly not based on how we’re a better team with him playing, or him being our lone All-NBA level talent, let alone All-Star, so what is it?

He is not a      Celtic. What rehab?

We are better with him playing ?

And he makes a habit of not being at games when injured. He would rather talk about being a leader than to act like one.
The Four Celtic Generals:
Russell - Cowens - Bird - Garnett

The Four Celtic Lieutenants:
Cousy - Havlicek - McHale - Pierce

Ugh, I have to stay late at work with tons of consults and notes to get in the chart, and I miss an instant classic?!  >:(

But a win against the 76ers is a win in my book, even if I missed most of the game! They definitely looked up for this one, playing with the type of passion that they played with in last year's playoffs. I think Morris' message was heard after last game lol

This is why you just can't count out the Celtics. We ALWAYS show up against good teams. We're currently 7-3 against the top five teams of the East, with one of those losses coming against Milwaukee with our entire starting frontline out (Horford, Morris, Baynes). The other two were close losses to Indy and Toronto, both away games.

Hayward was so good tonight.

Amazing what happens when you get minutes, they pass the ball to you and you’re featured in a Few pick and roll sets. AND get to play the point for a quarter

To be fair he and Baynes were told not to come Brad mentioned that at the start of the game, given the Detroit game tomorrow and the weather. The team decided to keep them both at home.

Injured players dont often travel. That's why Baynes want there either. But go off though
Not bashing Kyrie but Baynes was in Cleveland , I didn’t see Kyrie

We play better without him.. He is fun to watch no doubt but he is often injured and team plays better as a team without him..

This game and the Cleveland game are the only ones I can recall him not being he at this season. Baynes wasn't there either tonight. Where's that faux outrage?

No, we simply do not. We score more and defend better when he’s playing. The numbers are on the internet for you to find.

You just want them to play better when Kyrie is sitting, so a game like today is something you jump on, but you ignore them letting the Clippers come back from nearly 30 down

Fantastic win!!! After the worst loss of the season this has to be the best win of the season. Just WOW!! Hayward was spectacular. The entire team played with heart.

I will root for him as a Celtic as soon as he signs that new contract, until then he is suspect. And he needs to stop the drama, it is hurting the team.

People are going to say Brad's making excuses for him. Watch.
