And there it is.

Boston officially has Queta, Tillman and Williams as their centers. Good Lord next year is going to be a dumpster fire.

All those folks who said Niang isn't going to play here are wrong. Niang is going to play 35 plus minutes next season on this clowns show

[Goldstar88]

I?m going to miss Kornet. Brad should have locked him up like he did with Pritchard and Hauser. Ugh.

Horford to gsw

So in the end Hauser stays most likely.

What a roster. Absolutely no front court.

White, Brown, Simons, Niang and Queta

PP, Hauser, Baylor, Sam, Williams, Walsh Tillman Hugo and Davison.

This might be the worst roster the Cs have had since the Nets trade. Def. is the worst bench in decades.

[A Future of Stevens]

I'd feel better if we had a young developmental big on the roster to force feed minutes to next year.

It was always going to be tough next year. Now we are going to watch the race between fouling out and getting to 10+ rebounds for Queta every game.

Who is reporting it?

If you told me my only objective was to tank and my only restrictions wrt my roster were that I had to roster and play Pritchard, White, Brown and Hauser I think our current roster is basically the gold standard.

Pritchard/White is in theory a good backcourt. But weve managed to really hamper its efficacy by including Anfernee Simons who cant play with Pritchard and is one of the leagues worst defenders. Hes also ball dominant  and not a great passer.

Brown and Hauser are good. Rats.

Then our front court is truly horrible. I'm not too too bummed about this. To collect a top 10 pick without losing Brown/White/Pritchard/Hauser would be a pretty solid overall outcome.

If we could get some development from Walsh, Baylor, Gonzalez or Petersen we could be a center away from having a legit group when Tatum comes back.

Happy for Kornet!  He deserves the $$$

Kornet to spurs dang

Noooo! And they might lose Al too? Here comes the lottery.

I have a sneaky feeling that Amari Williams is going to impress as a rookie.

Really sickening how fast the Celtics window closed. Went from title favorites to a dumpster team in one year.

[bello_man09]

He literally has zero offensive game is a slow footed defender. He should be a year long G leaguer. He is not very good at all.

[celticinorlando]

And we have our starter at center...awesome.
