I think this could be Marcus.  He mentioned about someone doing stuff outside the game.   Then we hear Thompson is not following Covid Protocols coincidence?

It sounds overblown, that being said, I would ship TT in a heartbeat for Norman Powell.

Of course you would; and Ujiri would be fired if he agreed to do that!

Powell would be really sweet upgrade for us.

Trade everyone.

TP to Jiri for having a sense of humor.

I'm on board with trading everyone as long as we get more than 15 late first round picks in return.

I’d be very wary of shipping TT out in a deal. Not because I think he’s a great player but it’s honesty the perception around the league and with Klutch Sports. If they trade him, think they’ll need to do him a solid and trade him to a situation of his choice tbh.

You guys will remember this...Rondo returned to the Celtics, I think it was Brad's first year coaching. Rondo was not cheerful.

Celtics were tanking. They went on a west coast trip and were scheduled to play the Kings, I think.

Rondo "had to go celebrate his birthday with family in California" and didn't dress for the game.

My point with this retro talk is this.

If Garnett was still on the team would Rondo have "skipped a game?"

And the climax of this all important post...

Just who in heck is the "sheriff" on this Celtic's team?

Right now, TV commentator Kendrick Perkins is the only "person" calling anyone out.

The issue with all of this is the team is playing badly, thus we're all looking for a scapegoat and the "new guy who likes to party" is a perfect choice.

They need a C, he is a local draw and would sell tickets and he already is probably on he hot seat for the Baynes Contract and thinking Siakam was an Alpha when he is a Beta.
