would brandan wright have helped marcus -would Zeller have helped

Would wright have been effective helping against jarrrett jack playing as forward.Brad Stevens has been put in very difficult position in one sense but no matter what he does it's win win .Lose while playing rookies, the losses experimenting and showcasing just get us better players and in the end celts wind up in better draft position. The team has been entertaining for the most part.Except against heat-This season is like the movie usual suspects.

Jack did  a lot of his damage from the outside in yesterday's game, especially in the 3rd and 4th quarter.


Not sure how a different playing center would have helped with that

I think he means on defending the high screen and roll, as both Wright and Zeller are more athletic. This means they'll be able to hedge better on Jack and rotate faster on the screener once Smart would rotate to Jack.

Thanks Eddie-TP for that----if brandan wright is in vicinity he is always is threat of being disruptive from blocks  to just altering shots

Still think it would have made little difference in the game.

Probably, but isn't that the sort of thing a coach should try?

i don't think it would've helped much. JJ was making all the right decisions anyway. But I would want to see more of wright in general. Strikes me as a guy who doesn't make many mistakes on both ends of the floor.

Sometimes shots fall.

some real questions so i can learn more...

do you say this because:

1. wright is not a good enough player to have made a difference?
2. no one could have stopped jack, it was just one of the nights when a guy lights it up.
3. given the defensive tactics of the celtics, wright still would not have made a difference.
4. some of the above or none of the above.
