Nice win on the road.

Gordon got anywhere on the floor he wanted tonight, nice handle and a great game.

I loved how he scored in multiple ways. Almost no shots were exactly alike. Plus the assists...clutch rebounds...great game

Didn't see Wannamaker getting 21 minutes prior to the game
Right? We went real small.

He’s sneaky good in transition.

Any win is a good win.  Hayward was special. 

Need to do better defensively in the paint, but that’s mostly personnel.  Theis battled but he’s undersized.  And Love/Thompson are a load on the glass for anybody.

The beauty of this Gordon game is that this is where that horrible injury happened and he came back and got his highest score total ever in the same arena where nightmares began. This is the start of something special for him in Green.

Poetic, really.

Ainge should've just drafted Goga Bitadze.

you sure thats not a type of jock itch ? ???

Javonte, an undrafted player, got play in the 2nd qtr.

Romeo, a lottery pick, is in Maine.

Bitadze is a Center.
A Center is what the Celts need.
Not that hard to figure out.

You dont draft for need. Besides, romeo was drafted for his ceiling. What they do in their first years is basically a wash.

Ceiling?

Romeo does not have good shooting mechanics.
It's almost as if there are many other things about a player that gives them a high ceiling.

Drafting a shooting guard with shooting problems?

Oh boy yet another hilarious take. Shooting guard position is not only for shooters. Derozan became an all-star FYI.

The point is Romeo was not the best player available.

Alexander-Walker was available.
That's entirely your opinion. Our front office clearly think differently

True.

But right now the front office is not looking good.

It's looking like Ainge drafting JR Giddens!
Are you seriously already comparing him to a bust? Do people even think before they speak?

I'm not saying Romeo is a bust.

What I'm saying is the Celts could have done better.
Sure you aren't. You just happen to bring up a bust when talking about Romeo. I'm saying you're incredibly wrong. It's Robert Upshaw all over again.

Too early to tell.

But best player available at that time was not Romeo.

Alexander-Walker was ranked higher.

Well, ****. If someone was ranked higher, then Ainge definitely made a mistake. When are pre-draft ranking ever wrong?  ::)

Danny is such a bum, he should've drafted Fultz because he was ranked higher!

Ainge is not perfect.

Olynyk instead of Giannis is just one example.

Are you sure? Because Giannis only had 16 points (and 2 DNPs) in his team's first 6 games after being drafted, while Kelly had 49.  And as you already established, the forst 6 games of a player's career defines how good the pick was

It doesnt add up. Based on what I call, the Fierce metrics, Olynyk is the right pick because he scored more than Giannis in their first 6 games. By that same metric though, Tatum was the right pick over Fultz. But then again he also said to pick the higher ranked guy, so Fultz should be the right pick.

Like I said, Ainge is not perfect.

But my question to you is if a person disagrees with your opinion, does that make the person an idiot?

It depends on how bad that person's take is.

So this forum allows name calling and insults?

Great win and effort to hold off the comeback.

Really happy for Gordon, ties his career high on the same court that almost ended his career.


TP for all!

I'm glad to see Caren Edwards breakout of his little funk too. However, It was only a matter of time.

It was the haircut.

Great team win. I'm glad to see Brad giving so many guys a chance so early in the year.

Where did I say that? I never said that. I said those who keep on voicing their displeasure that early without sufficient evidence are idiots.

Ainge is not perfect, but you are? I mean, you must be, after all, you already know that freaking Goga is the answer to our problems and he will surely have a better career than Romeo.

Exactly!

And some here think Tristan Thompson is not worth Poirier, Kanter, and the other junk we have.

I think it's also idiotic to not want a player because he's associated with the Kardashians.

Timelord wasn’t perfect but again he made some nice plays. Really looking forward to his development the next couple years.

Right now Goga is starting for the Pacers and has played 31 minutes.

The game is going to overtime and Goga has 6 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

Again, the point is Ainge could have done better.

This is nothing but a short sighted take. Wait for at least 5 years before telling people that Ainge should have picked better. These are the same old takes when the Celtics took guys like Bradley.

Yeah he looks explosive and confident. And he's dishing dimes like Celtic Strongers dishing TP's.

There you go again.

Voicing displeasure is part of what a forum is.

Again, if you don't agree with my opinion then let's agree to disagree.

If not then we can go at it this all this day because right now clearly Ainge is not looking good for drafting Romeo.

There are at least 5 players drafted after Romeo that would have helped the Celtics right now.
