 I was all for the Vooch for Simons deal and I wouldn?t take it back . I don?t think there would be enough shots for Simons. I don?t think he?s selfish . I just think he needs a certain volume to feel right.
   I didn?t expect a better player than Vooch . I WAS hoping his weakness could be somehow hidden / protected a bit more or he?d move just a little better . Not a knock on him . He is who he is . I was just curious ( when I don?t understand the cap well) if there was a player out there that people think of next year that may be affordable that makes us a little bit better of a team to take on OKC.
   We are already one of the best teams in the NBA. It?s just it turns into a 1 on 1 contest in the playoffs due to all the off ball holding preventing player movement.
   That benefits guys like Shai ( who is already mvp ) and Brunson ( who?s team really shouldn?t have a legit shot be this Celtics squad if reffed like the regular season .

As a fundamental matter, I'm confused.  Brad "punted the season" at the trade deadline?

Last I checked, we were one of the top four favorites for a title.

And, who is the imaginary impact center we could have acquired with the TPE?


I also thought one of the reasons to get out of the Apron was to be able to use a TPE?   




At this point, Vooch is having a bigger impact on the playoffs then Simons could of have because of the depth the Celtics already have where he would play.

Look at the bright side, we can dump if we want at the end of year if he does not work out. 

I think he has made some timely shots, and gave us good fouls.   I think he is still assimilating to some degree.  He has always been lumbering and has issues with sliding on D, but he is a wall down low.
