Celtics (7-6) at Timberwolves (4-8) Game #14 11/21/16

[JOMVP]

This is the type of game where I hope Danny starts feeling anxious about what he's out together here. Got the full compliment of players and they get out worked by a 4-8 Wolves team.

I like this lineup on the court. Good chemistry

Then he better hold onto those Nets picks and look to build 3-4 years from now.

Zeller is literally so useless on the defensive end... may as well be 4 vs 5

Wiggins just butted him out of the lane...

Wolves are smart and are just taking it at him every time... he can't defend anything

every team this year has been doing this with all our bigs except against Horford.  we're not sneaking up on anyone this year and every team knows we're even weaker on the boards this year without Sully and Turner.

Yeah I give DA credit for a lot but not getting a replacement for Sully was a huge fail on his part... putting way too much faith into Amir/Zeller. Zeller was a bench warmer last year for God sakes we downgraded

getting Horford was fantastic but Danny really needed to get another big man that was better than Zeller on the boards and defense.  Gerald Green wasn't the guy to take a flyer on.

optimistic thought: maybe next year we get Zizic and Yabu to come over to replace Zeller and KO and they provide us with better rebounding, scoring and D.  hard to see them providing less.  getting a decent FA big man would help too.

I don't really blame Danny for not upgrading Amir this summer, because he just majorly regressed this year. Before the season he seemed like a competent defensive fifth starter.

But it's so very apparent that his starter days are done now. He really should only be playing 15 minutes per game as a backup C at this point. And we don't have any other options that are better at this point. KO and Zeller are just simply too soft.

agreed.  Amir has tailed off more than expected this season.  had hoped that if Danny was bringing back one of Sully or Zeller it would have been Sully because we at least know he can rebound.

Yeah, that puzzled me, too. Sully is obviously the better player, but I think they soured on Sully a long time ago with his weight and character issues.

Horford is going to will another win. Don't give up.

Minny should be better than 4-8.  their issue is that they're young and haven't learned how to close out games yet.  I think we're giving them too much confidence tonight by not playing smart or playing with enough hustle.

I think Danny got too enamored with beating Golden State.  The up and coming teams are longer and we won't be matching up with them anytime soon.

Two heady plays by Brown.

Horford is going to will another win. Don't give up.

The problem is you have to play him [dang] near the whole game because of our lack of competent bigs.

Jeesus. This is rough to watch.

I think his performance in the playoffs last year really hurt him with management unlike the year before where the playoffs were the time he shined

How's about over the back on Jaylen?

[jpotter33]

This lineup out there is doing better because they're actually moving the ball.

Please leave Roz in Brad.
