Having Sully off the bench and Turner with the starting unit really makes very little sense.  Turner is our energy guy off the bench and can't shoot.  Sully is not.

God. Sully is ass
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

I cannot wait until Sullinger is gone this offseason.

We have now gone small to start the second half in the last 3 games against the Hawks. If Brad realizes that their starters are killing our traditional lineup, why doesn't he start the game small.

Amir is really the only one giving us a good game.

Sullinger is absolute TRASH

It's not rocket science. You would think our boy wonder would realize that by now. We're playing them even when we're small, and we've been decimated when we're big. That's legitimately the difference in the game right now.

Zeller was terrible in his few minutes and he has been better than Sully this series.

How many ugly plays can be made in 90 seconds by one player? Sully setting the record. But it's (almost) funny become he's fat.

I love all these "we are not a good basketball team" posts. Get outta here with those. We were one of the best teams in the east and fully healthy we would have made a serious run here in the playoffs with the full compliment of players. We are without one of our best starters and important bench players and Crowder is clearly not even close to healthy and IT isn't healthy either. We are a good team. Not a good shooting team, sure, but a good team that's playing to about the sum of its current parts.



Teams that play above their talent level often overextend themselves, and injuries are a natural consequence of overextension. So there you see one is not removed from the other. Injuries are a consequence of not being that good to begin with.

So Kevin Durant got a Jones fracture last year because he over extends himself by making up for not being one of the best basketball players in the world? Injuries happen. Whether you are Jae Crowder, or Kevin Durant.

You are right, but I am right too. There is always a risk of injury, but that risk is higher when you try to play above your physical capacity.

Leave the arena, go eat another cheeseburger, and never wear a Celtic jersey again.

Ok I'm probably overreacting but Sully is really p---ing me off

Please Danny, upgrade the talent on this team.

Smart might not be scoring, but how much good has he done for us defensively? At least he contributes when he's not scoring.

Kind of the opposite of what Thomas is doing for us.
