Celtics (16-27) at Timberwolves (7-37) Game #44 1/28/15

[Who]

I thought Anthony Bennett was having a good year? Has he not been getting playing time?

I think it was a few bright games early in the season and then he peetered out.

Weak defense combined with hugely inefficient scoring (45.6% TS%). Average rebounder.

[SCeltic34]

With the Twolves getting players healthy, I'm concerned that they may end up passing the Lakers.  Ugh.

So are they tanking again or still trying to make the playoffs?

It depends on Brad's mood that night.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

our young guys will get plenty experience AND development along with tanking. heck, look how many they have won already this year!!! so they are learning how to win some as well!!! 

 

[Who]

I think Olynyk with his size and outside shooting would've been very useful against Dieng ... pulling Dieng out of paint and putting Dieng in positions where he is more uncomfortable defensively. Leave Pekovic more exposed defensively in paint.

[Beat LA]

the retarded thing about tonight is CBS playing Sully and Bass upfront against trees like pek and dieng

It's amateur coaching at best.  Crowder also should not be starting any more.

Tonight KO would of helped

1).  Please don't use that word - especially as an insult, and 2).  KO would not have helped at all, imo.  In fact, he probably would have made things much worse, and I've thoroughly enjoyed not seeing him play, lol.

Not when Brad hardly plays them lol

GIVE SMART MORE MINUTES!!

There was talk about a month and a half to two months ago that Minnesota wanted to trade Kevin Martin and Nikola Pekovic but were unable to get good value for them while they were out injured. So good chance Minny puts both guys back on the trade block now that they are back on the court and playing well.

[MBunge]

Seeing Pressey out there in the second half was bizarre.

And I think people can stop worrying about winning too many games.

Pek and Wiggins killed us tonight.

Wiggins looks good.

Minny has been letting rookies start and figure out how to play in the NBA.

Stevens on the other hand...

Yeah, how about that (sarcasm)?  Ugh.

Good point.  That's at least somewhat comforting
