Where are all the Bradley apologists that come up with all the excuses as to not trade him and sully for Cousins?

I look at the rebounding total in which surprise, we are outrebounded by double the amount. Hm I wonder what the score would be if they were even....

I wonder if this would be a ball game instead of another blowout.

I wonder if you know anything about how basketball works.

Same plaguing issues with or without Bradley, this team is going nowhere without acquiring another big man. And no, not just any 7'0 scrub body.

we tried telling people AB would not make the difference. we need a big man who can play D and score and rebound.


Exactly...I'd traded what ever it took to bring in Cousins

another scrub center an't gonna help :'(
We're not getting Cousins. Can we move on already?

Ehhh, probably more likely than actually contending for a title. And that has been talked about quite a bit, lol. So keep the Cousins talk going!

Maybe the Celtics can BUY the KINGS team , rob them and resell the team  ..minus Cousins

have to say though, I couldn't understand the hype about Memphis this year but watching this game has shown me they're pretty well balanced.  I don't think they'll get the title but I think they'd be the team no one wants to face in the West

The performance tonight doesn't bother me like the other ones recently.

I think the effort has been good today. They've struggled but they have played hard.
really?  other than the first quarter and a half, they've stunk

I was just about to say the same thing as Who, regarding the effort.  The team seems to be hustling, they just stink.

Whether that's more or less concerning for the team's long-term prospects is a matter of debate, I suppose.

Then they flat out stink. If they are playing hard to a poor Memphis team and still down big...they are just bad

I'm actually quite amused by this game. I'm seeing *some* good things. Obviously there's a lot of bad stuff, but since we've not been doing well, I've lowered my expectations.

It helps.

I like Bradley's defense, and love Sully's game.

Also, the Garden crowd is loud today, really love it. Could be they microphones are just close to them today, or the volume is cranked - whatever it is, I love it.

I'd move Bradley for Cousins.

However, it's not fair to expect a huge immediate impct when a guy has been out this long.  Look at how slow some of the other injured players around the league have started (Dirk, Kevin Love, Ricky Rubio, Amare, etc.)

In case you missed it, that "poor Memphis team" currently sits on a 19-9 record.

Rondo/Bass/Collins and pick for Conley and Gasol.
You think they want Rondo? I'll take Conley over Rondo

This teams a joke all these recent signings have been HOT GARBAGE. Rondo isn't consistent and awful defensively. KG and Pierce have many too many off nights. This team will struggle to make the eighth seed.

Only down 13 with nine minutes left. Nice little run here. Keep it going for another few minutes and get it to single digits.

They are not far away from getting back in this game.

Still here and I'm not budging from that view.

Sullinger and Bradley are two of the only guys on this team playing with effort. 

You don't trade away the only guys on your team that are actually trying.

It is sad when i hope Boston just plays a close game. I don't even expect a win anymore
