Celtics Talk / Re: If we trade Simons, who takes over our bench scoring?

In theory someone like Queta probably also goes back to the bench, I know he's not a prolific scorer but he is averaging 10+ a game. Then Tatum comes back and maybe PP goes to the bench if they add another cheap guard via the trade or buyout.

Obviously not saying they are all easy, but the rest of the month the only tough game I see is Detroit. The C's schedule until New Years:

@MIL
DET
MIA
@TOR
IND
@IND
@POR
@UTAH

I mean 6-2 in that stretch feels realistic

6-2 with 5 road games, hosting Detroit, and at Toronto on the back half of a B2B that starts vs. Miami is still a tall order. I hope 4-4 doesn?t send you back to the tank train. It is still a team with a lot of inexperienced players in the rotation, and inconsistency is in our future at some point.

Nah I'd take 4-4. The East is gonna be there for the taking or at least making a playoff run even if they sort of stay around a 45-48 win pace. Tanking isn't happening anymore with some of these truly hideous teams that exist

Depends what we get back and when the trade happens. If it is at the deadline and Tatum is close to a return, then Pritchard should move back to a 6th man role. I assume we would get back someone who can play in the rotation at any rate. If there is a playable wing, probably would move Hauser or that wing to the starting lineup and Pritchard to the 6th man.

The Miami Heat have discussed a potential trade for Ja Morant.

Quote
Miami was already shaping into a surprising buyer on this trade market even before this week's Giannis headlines. League sources say that the Heat, for example, have had internal discussions about Memphis' Ja Morant and how Miami's infrastructure could benefit him.

Jake Fischer

What can Miami offer question Tyler Herro? Not sure that works for Memphis. Maybe. If Morant?s trade value is that low.

Honestly, given Morant has so many maybes around him (attitude, injury, shooting), Tyler Herro seems like equal value.
