Awesome game. Happy birthday, Jaylen!

I’msurprised cBS still has starters in the game

Don't be. Brad's game management is atrocious as usual.

I disagree with that. I think Brad's just giving guys playing time together. Brad is a great coach.

Either that, or he has no idea when to pull them. I don't think there's anything to be gained by "playing together" in something which is at this stage a glorified pickup game.

I think it's more that after his teams have been burned so much blowing big leads he, for good or bad, believes that no lead is safe enough.

No, I think it is more that you have to give your starters game time minutes to build their stamina for when they really need it. You cannot have starters used to playing only three quarters. You may also want to simulate some game ending plays for practice.

Yabu on the board

[liam]

He's still trying to develop chemistry among his starters.

Did they look like they were lacking chemistry today?

Actually Irving still looks hesitant to me.  I think he's still trying to figure these guys out.

Yeah, he needs reps...

[CelticD]

Did somebody say something about Horford? Oh, that was another poster.

Ya meng that was me I was saying I couldn't wait for his contract to expire. LOL I still feel that way 

I did too.  Surprisingly it's ok to criticize the players

lol guys I was only half joking. Actually playing on words, you do know we have a poster here named 'Somebody', right?

It's all good familia, just love and laughs lol, hold this TP

German guy
Egyptian guy
Spanish leaguer and assorted teenagers.

I want Ainge to pick up a guy from a league no one has even heard of and make him good off the bench.

Let's just bring back Vitor Faverani and call it a day.

#FreeYabu

If he were playing better defense in practice than Semi he'd probably be in instead of Semi. Nader is next one in. Yabu is last

Nader is the biggest ball-hogging black hole ever to wear a Celtics Jersey - I'd rather see Yabusele out there any day.

Hell I think I'd rather see a 350 pound, three point chucking Jared Sullinger on one leg then Nader.

I agree and the starters didn't play heavy minutes. Everyone around 30 minutes on the night.

Baker should get a technical for his hair.

Oh wow Knicks picked up Doug McBuckets? What trade was that??

[bostonsportsforlife]

[cltc5]
