Don't want to add LaMelo but hopefully Boston can get into the trade to upgrade the big depth.

Celtics Talk / Re: I Think I Am Aboard The Tank Train Now
« Last post by slamtheking on Today at 12:15:00 PM »
We don't have a great roster, but our guys are not going to play soft or tank.  Many of us want to get a good draft pick, I don't think the players or Joe Mazulla got that memo, folks.
expecting the team to do poorly such that it results in a better draft pick doesn't prevent someone for rooting for wins anyway.  I'm in that boat.   I love to see the players do well and still get aggravated by bad play and dumb mistakes but I've adjusted my expectations for this year to anticipate them missing even the play-in spots just because they lack proven depth and good big men that can defend and rebound.  Q's been far better than expected but he can't play 48 minutes every night.

I hope we do not make a move for him.   He is a very poor shooter, can't shoot from the field of the three.  He is shooting 29.8% from the three this year.   This is down from his career average of 36.2%  His field percentage is bad too at 38.5% this year against a career average of  42.0% .  He has some shooting touch as he is shooting 86.7% from the line.   He is not a good defender with at current defensive rating is approximately
118.1.

I would not pursue him as a player or trade Simons for him.  Simons is a better shooter.  Both are 118 def rating guys.
this is a weird conclusion to draw.  I mean. Jordan Walsh is a better shooter and has a better drtg.  Would you not trade Jordan Walsh for LaMelo either?
