I'd rather seem do well than poorly.   It had to help his game going up against Al all those practices.

He will definitely be the number one center barring some trade, as I see it.   There were times when I thought he outplayed Kornett at times.  Luke was just better at the team basketball stuff and rotating. Queta is more of an old school center.

Q is one of the reasons why I?m excited for the upcoming season. Maybe he?s our surprise package.

If you get a chance, check out Queta highlights. Very active, lots of movement off screen and rolls, tons of confidence. Hits a 3 and a late shot clock off the dribble middie. It?s possible it was just ?one of those nights? but even taking into account the not NBA level of players, he looks very capable. Frequently getting himself open. Arrow pointing up for sure.

And Q can't be at his ceiling.  He's only now going to get the PT that will likely improve his game.  I agree with all that he doesn't need to great.  If he is good enough doing his job defensively and on the boards, the C's will be an interesting team to watch prior to Tatum's return.  I know many are hoping for a lottery pick next year and that might happen, but I think just as likely this team wins around 45 and is a 6 (or so) seed.

The Boston media took on the Celtics coaching staff in a full court scrimmage.  :laugh:

Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:
Quote
At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
Per Michael Scotto:
The Boston Celtics are waiving two-way player RJ Luis, league sources told hoopshype. Boston acquired Luis from the Utah Jazz in exchange for two second-round picks and Georges Niang. Luis was recently Big East Player of the Year for St. John?s.

I know we gave up the picks to get rid of Niang, but I was kind-of hoping that Luis would be worth one of those 2nd round picks rather than just filler technically needed for the trade to happen.

I wonder who we'll sign with the open two-way spot. No reason to waive Luis unless we have somebody else in mind

This did not surprise me. He was lower in the rotation on Sunday than all the other 2-ways and invitees.  I expect it will be either Harper Jr. or Moore Jr. unless it is someone else who comes available in the coming days.

He should have stayed in college. Got poor advice from someone.
