Celtics 2025-26 Regular Season Discussion

[SHAQATTACK]

We re in decent shape .   Vuc is more old school,  he ll play when the team needs him

[Vermont Green]

With this injury to Vuc, and two roster see spots still to be filled, I suspect they are looking at bigs. Who is out there that might take a rest of season contract?

Charles Bassey, who we had in summer league, has had a great G league campaign and is postseason eligible.

Some notable free agent bigs include Tony Bradley, Dario Saric, and old friend Chris Boucher.

For those of you with encyclopedic knowledge of other rosters, is there a team other than the Cs that can throw 4 guys at you who can shoot from anywhere, create their own shot/space, and pass the ball at a high level?  The foursome of JB, PP, DW, and JT is formidable and scary, especially with guys around them who can shoot/score.

I absolutely do not have encyclopedic knowledge. But I'd say only a healthy OKC. And I say healthy, because OKC has been dealing with some injuries to guys throughout the season, notably the past month including SGA. That's about it though. But OKC's bench is loaded/deep too

I?d add SA as well. All their starters can score at a high level. I honestly think the Spurs (if healthy) are making the Finals.

Super small stat, but why is Hugo 11/24 from the line for the year? But 34/100 from three...

It appears to me that he has the "yips" with FT shooting.  I am not worried about this, I feel he will figure it out.  This will be something other teams will try to exploit in the playoffs though (hack-a-Hugo).  Luckily for BOS, there is no need to have him anywhere near the floor at crunch time.  If it becomes an issue, just play Scheierman.

He shoots them so rarely.  He does not have the yips.  It is simply a small sample size issue for someone who is not very good at them and never takes them.  He has only attempted free throws in one of his last 14 games.  He has other things to practice more than attempting free throws.
