MacMullan and Windhorst Podcast: Discussing Celtics

Maybe they don't wanna win together...because after Kyrie and Morris pulled that Old vs young mess, it was a done deal. Which I thought was weird because Kyrie's only a few years older.

And maybe... just maybe...they should start the team that went deep into the playoffs.  The young guys would be wanting to show what the deal is, and be a shot in the arm for them.

The vets, and I only mean Kyrie and Morris, will have time to think and see their value and stop the disrespect.  Because I think that's what it's about.

If you commit to a young team that overachieved, I have no idea why you would put vets ahead of them that aren't as talented. I mean I like Morris, but he's not as talented as JB.

So maybe they should start that team anchored by Horford and Williams and let them create defensive havoc, run, and see what they look like in 2 weeks.

Brad said he "doesn't fly by the seat of his pants like that" and that's the main reason I see his stubborness putting himself out of a job.

They're already failing, so trying different things and failing is better because atleast there's some logic behind the failing.

Playing the same way and doing the same things all year expecting different results is kind of like insanity.

And i'm pretty sure Al would communicate with Williams on the floor about positioning, because i'm sure he would appreciate the help with the load.

Every team I see yall put together on here with Al being the center, I know it's gonna fail because it's too much load on him down there. And too much ATTENTION on him from the other team. He needs to be free to do what he does best and knows where to be on the floor more than anyone else on the team.

He even mentioned years ago that he preferred the 4 spot, but Brad and Danny ignored him in their quest for small-ball.  Which...frankly never works anyway.

But they really should turn the team loose that overacheived.

I even hear our own reporters say the youngsters can't get that deep inside the playoffs....which they already did...and just highlights the disrespect i'm sure they're sick of by now.

I would be too...I ain't gonna lie.

The vets are the ones that don't play Brad's defense. Kyrie's not a plus on D, Morris is not mobile enough, and Hayward just flat out can't do it yet, and i'm not convinced he was fast enough for that before the injury.

It's all on Brad and Danny...and i'm not even sure Brad knew he had an exceptional running team. Like he didn't even put the thought together that defensive scheme is tailor fit for a running team.

Because as fast as Kyrie is, I don't even see them trying to run.
