Holding on to players and building loyalty seems to be under attack by volume of Trade articles and posts,The shear number and consistency has got to eat away at players..It eats away at my old shool Celtics values.
Jaylen makes a leap and its trade him or Marcus Smart.The give away of Theis for nothing.
Horford walking,Rozier for Kemba and Kemba give away with first round pick.
I think a break is necessary after Kyrie season,covid and the bubble .
And the fans should look up at the banners and remember what they stand for.
The gratification gained from fans hypothetical trades on blogs and in print by press must percolate into heads of the Celtic players .

My question is, what do the banners stand for? What do you personally feel they stand for? I assume it's different for everyone. To some they stand for old-time basketball and nothing more.

Don't forget, "It's a players League." The fans are only reacting to the rules the players association setup. We react to their desires.

This what happens when you give control of a sport over to the players. You get immature, half-baked, ideas linked to the personal whims and desires of these same players. And the players want ultimate mobility. So we simply react. 

There's nothing wrong with the NBA that a long strike wouldn't solve.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
Kyrie earned his right to be a FA.  He is difficult he is gone. Any one would have made that trade. We gave up Colin Sexton for him. Whoopee If KI stays look we would have had the problems The Nets are having with him. I think our J's will get a ring before Brooklyn does if not more rings. Rozier was a headache too. Gordon's injuries is what killed us up to this past year. Kemba not being able to distribute killed us this year. 27th in assists as a team.  Smart is entering his prime. I think he will pass first and lead well. We have Al back to pass too. Two yuoumh studs at center, Two wings that should blossom and PP. Grant should be better too.  Parker  is still young too. I am more excited than ever. We will get saome becnh help too. Fournier will be great off the bench as well.
