I had the impression him and Lebron did not get along from their time in Cleveland.

Two 100% Alphas will little room in their games for compromise.

It would be awkward seeing him with Rondo and Lebron after all what happened between them, lol.

apparently the lakers were concerned that their team was too young and possibly not bad enough on defense.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

My favorite C of all time after Russ, Bird and PP!

He gave his all, especially his body to this franchise.

I wish him nothing but the best, even though he’s playing with Le Broid and the Fakers.

It would be interesting to see if he sticks around once the other guys return from covid protocols.

Nostalgia aside, we could actually use a player like IT.

The defense of the team is good but there are stretches where we just can’t put it in the hole. IT can’t defend a lick but if he can get you enough points over 12-15mpg to keep the bench afloat or be a corner three threat in the last possession of the game, I think that’d be a significant positive for the team.

Would rather continue to give those minutes to the three young guys to see if they can do what Nesmith did against GSW and what Pritchard did last night.

Also, JRich looks rejuvenated and more the player he was a few years back, so he needs minutes too.

ITs time in Boston is done.

Wow! This is very high praise coming from someone who's been watching the Celtics since the 60s!

Personally speaking, I couldn't stand IT when we traded for him. That said, he vastly exceeded my expectations and he gradually won me over. Props to the guy for what he has achieved in the NBA despite standing at only 5'9''!

Just ensuring this thread ends on the right note.

So far tonight IT has 13 points on 5-for-9 shooting (3-for-5 3PTs) in the 4th quarter.  He got the start.

I hate rooting for any Laker, but let's hope they lose a close one.

Romeo looks more confident by the game.
