I like all the minutes the bench guys are getting. It'll be a good investment.

Man, GWill has become such a clown.

He's been playing a WWE goon since the 2022 Finals.  It totally changed his personality.

Pritchard really picked up the slack.

Great minutes from Kornet.  Queta did a respectable job off the bench.  Our two cheap bigs are giving us tremendous value.

NBA needs to reduce the regular season games. These guys are playing 4 nights out of the week. It?s too much.

Would be a better product too if they cut it back by 10-15 games.

I've been saying it for a while. I think the 2022 Finals impacted him and not in a good way. He wants to be that "Draymond-level enforcer" and he's just not that guy. And along the way he's just come across as a clown.

He used to be a solid 7th or 8th man who put his head down and worked hard to get to where he is, and we all respected that. But from 2023 onwards it's just been downhill. His disastrous Mavs tenure. Now he's had some growth again in Charlotte but the last few games and his actions make me question that too. And I thought the Celtics players and him were close but after the last few games now he probably burned those bridges too lol

From JB?s interview, it sounded like only JT was close to Grant, but after the 2nd game where JT went straight to the locker after the buzzer, I guess those bridges are indeed burned lol

Can?t Blame JT. That useless tackle could have resulted in a freak injury.

Been thinking about this game.  We played without our 2nd (Brown) and 3rd (Porzingis) players.  Think how good PHI would be if they had Embiid but not George and Maxey for example.  Or the knicks without Towns and Bridges.  Or going back further, how about the heat without Wade and Bosh?

There are a few teams were this would not have such a big impact, like DAL and DEN.  Luka and Jokic would keep them in games but DEN is struggling without Murray (their second best) playing below par.

The depth of this team is truly amazing.

The funny thing is, when talking about injuries last postseason to the field, no one seems to consider that the Celtics were also without Porzingis for like 75% of the run. Even the Finals he really only played 2.5 games.

Imagine if he can stay healthy during the 2nd half this year + playoff run

For me, it went from "It's too bad we had to give up Grant Williams"....to "Good Riddance, He's a Punk"
