Oh yeah, we are getting killed by their front court.

But lets draft a guard in 2017..

and whom should the celtics draft in 2017 then?

I'd rather a star guard than another just okay big. We have enough Tyler Zeller, Kelly Olynyk, and Jordan Mickeys

[Chief]

Bulter and George are a waste of time

Without

Boogie



We need a BIG dude who can play.

You get Butler and Noel, you are in good shape defensively.

Well, story of the game. A perimeter-oriented team can't deal with the bigs of a big-oriented team. Story of the C's for half a decade now.

Look at our scoring - AB 14, IT 12, Smart 10, Amir 5, JJ/Green 3, Al 2.

Look at their scoring - Their forwards/centers all lead the scoring over the guards lol

Get off your arse Danny and upgrade our bigs!

Giles might help after a season


But Philly is going to dominate .....everybody but LeBron

[jpotter33]

How was the Jae reception?

We did not get to hear ....was not shown,....I was waiting to see myself.....but the Abby  said it was warm..cheers

Has anyone found this yet?

I heard he got a really loud reception, much louder than usual.

I think people are overreacting to a good half by the second worst team in the league by just a wee little bit lol

Danny can be off his ass all he wants, but it doesn't matter until other teams start looking to trade their bigs, too.

There probably won't be any bigs moving until either Millsap gets moved or the deadline arrives

I'd take Noel or even Okafor all day every day over KO. He HAS to be the WORST rotation player we've had in a while. JJ is not far behind. We need at least 1 more legit big. Amir is useless as well. Forget PG or Butler, we DESPERATELY need large skilled men to have any kind of real success. An intimidating, shot blocking, rebounding big. Until then we will be extremely mediocre.

It's been so fun watching Embiid improve this season.  It's going to be interesting when their second franchise player comes back and they potentially draft two more franchise players this Summer.  I expect us to smoke this team in the second half, though.

I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach about Philly ......they are tanking holding Simmons out ........if he came in .....they would,be .500 team anyways

[mr. dee]

cant watch the game and only able to follow it via box scores. i would appreciate a recap.

it seems to my non-watching eyes that the celtics are playing lazy defense and not attacking the basket.

amirite?   

Playing sloppy with turnovers.

Ainge better be calling on Bogut sometime in February..

Noel? He's been available for awhile now, no matter what blatant falsehoods Colangelo tries to sell to the media.

[LarBrd33]

Also interesting watching Philly experiment with Noel and Embiid together.  It was a long time coming.  They are currently undefeated in games those two have shared the court together (2-0).   I still expect them to trade one or both of Noel and Okafor.  They might just be showcasing Noel right now.  You can smell his trade value increasing in this game.  He still does what he does well.
