Anyone here discrediting Lacerte is just taking a total 100% complete factless guess at this situation.
No one here can say Lacerte mishandled injuries, you have literally no idea what you are talking about. You are just guessing because your favorite player got hurt. It's laughable that anyone in this thread is taking such a stance against these individuals while having ZERO knowledge of the situation.
Unless some players and owners come out and say they thought themselves or their players were mishandled by Lacerte, then you will have a right to say 'good riddance' to a real person who put his entire career and the prime of his life into keeping the Celtics players healthy.
Show some respect and don't act so petty.
First, I would tend to defer to Roy who probably knows recent C's history as well as anyone on this board!!
Second, Roy or anyone else has a right to express his or her opinion as long as he or she does so in a respectful fashion (I know Roy, funny coming from me:-))!! Matter of fact, Roy probably has a right to express his opinion more than anyone except for perhaps the revered Jeff Clark!!
Third, Roy was in NO WAY petty. He expressed his opinion and then back up his opinion with three SPECIFIC examples.
Thanks so much for your years of service and I wish you nothing but the best as our Celtics move in a new direction.

P.S. Sorry for speaking for you Roy, but that sort of got under my skin.
I know that you were responding to the other poster.
I think you're making my point. Just because Roy knows a ton about the Celtics doesn't mean he knows a ton about the medical field.
There was a post titled "Do you believe in global warming?", and the same logic applied. If you don't have an advanced degree or experience in a complicated field, it is tough to prove your credibility on a given topic. My answer to that post was "It doesn't matter if you believe in it or not- the experts have told us what they have researched".
I believe I remember reading that Roy is an attorney. What if I started criticizing certain attorneys for certain actions that I might not understand? How would this be perceived?
Forums are a great place for people to voice their opinions without consequence. They are also a good place to call people out if you think that they are out of their element, and what they are saying doesn't make sense to you. Respectfully. Hopefully I have stayed respectful.
