Bass is so irrelevant we need to like trade him like yesterday... "clueless" haha Great Half! Saw it coming... this team is so exciting to watch nowadays  ;D

unfortunately we need Bass now that Sullinger is done for the year.

As a trade chip...for a real pf


Sorry Danny, going to have to give up a pick.

What team can the Celtics beat that the Rondo crowd will admit, this team is better without Rondo slowing down the offense and not playing any defense?

I'm not sure what you mean by Rondo crowd, but I will not be impressed unless we make it further into the playoffs.

So, unless we make the Finals.

With Rondo we were not going to make the playoffs.  He was a hinderance to the team.

The ball is definitely moving much better without Rondo, but I think that's a philosophy change that needs to happen. In the first 2 years of the Big 3, the ball moved around the court a lot. Rondo is masterful with the ball, and can pick defenses apart (so I totally get why we gave him the ball more and more over the years), but we need to change back to the older style...and along with that, Rondo needs to look to score more. I think these are transitions that will happen, and I think Rondo will pick this up as he's watching the games. The kid wants to win as much as KG, and I honestly don't think he'll care what his numbers look like so long as it helps the team win. I think the team we have once Rondo returns next year will rely much more on ball movement, and Rondo attacking for points.

I loved him last year, he has great game we can use, but his struggling...I believe he'll get a grip ans start being a great piece for this team(see C. Lee)

Rondo is a weak offensive player and a poor shooter.  That makes him somewhat unreliable off the ball.  Teams continue to slack off him.  We couldnt play this way with Rondo.  Our offense was built to play to Rondo's strengths and mask his weaknesses.  Now we're just playing basketball.

We have a bunch of quality backup guards who are offensive weapons.  Now we can uses those offensive weapons without restricting them into being merely shooters.

Very lack luster start.  I don't want this to become a game.

I'm glad Pierce came to play the second half.

What a shot by Pierce, basically dribbling backwards towards the 3-line and pulling up.  Truth

Don't know why we're playing so much with KG at the top of the key with no pick-and-roll, pick-and-pop action.

And I really dislike Bradley as a PG. Put Lee on that role, our system functions that much better.

I honestly thought that shot was blocked, then I saw it go in lol.
