This may sound weird and I don't mean it to, but Jaylen Brown is more multi-dimensional in a spiritual sense. Part of his superstardom is that the NBA likes him and wants him to be a spokesman for a long time. And I think he's a much more determined leader than Jaylen, who's just naturally a more easy-going guy. Even though Jayson is bigger and naturally more gifted, I've always considered them equal. Maybe Jayson is going to get more numbers and a little more attention now, but Jaylen will be in management and I get a feeling they'll be talking about him long after I'm dead Exactly! That's why anyone that says Jaylen is one-dimensional is either a hater or just doesn't know much about basketball. Every casual NBA fan will say KD is the best player or Lebron is the greatest. I get it, Jaylen is not yet on the same level as KD and Lebron. But to say that he's one-dimensional, that's absolute garbage. Well, he's a good Defender who can guard multiple positions. He's good in the open court both ways. He has a nice little jump shot off a curl which I think he picked up from Avery Bradley. He's developed a nice three. Both he and Jayson came in needing a lot of work on their handles and both have improved a lot while both still need Improvement. Neither do I consider a particularly good passer. Well they're fundamentally solid but neither are creative pastors that I would say see the floor like a basketball genius

The point is just because Jaylen is not yet a basketball genius, it doesn't mean he's one-dimensional. I think the problem with the new guy is he's an extremist. It's like if you're not Lebron or KD then you're no good. He became a fraud when he said he's a realist but doesn't assume injuries will happen heading into the playoffs. A true realist would acknowledge that injuries can happen during the course of the season.

If the playoffs started today, the Nets are not even in the playoffs.
That's why it's premature and absurd to declare the Nets finals bound after only 2 games.
Also ridiculous to say Celtics will not be in the finals when it's still December.

Too early in the season to make proclamations and declarations, right? Also, Jayson Tatum's new max contract takes effect next season and I'm already being told that Tatum would be leaving Boston. Go figure!

Jaylen Brown (health and safety protocols) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat.
In the aftermath of Jayson Tatum being ruled out for 10-14 days, the Celtics released a long list of players on its most recent injury report. Hopefully Brown will be able to play, most importantly for the health aspect. Fantasy-wise, he stands to have the ball in his hands even more with Tatum sidelined.

The players need to wear masks on the bench at all times. After the game no socializing. JT and BB were in close contact after the game was over.

Always a job at the circus freak show for little men.. The purpose of watching the Celtics is for entertainment. Winning a championship is just a bonus. If I have better things to do, I wouldn't be watching Celtic games live. I'm just lucky that my job allows me to watch Celtic games. Also, I'm not the guy who will only watch if my team is winning. Win or lose I watch the Celtics play. Remember Brad's first year in Boston? The game threads would only be 2 or 3 pages because a lot of the Celtic fans here didn't want to watch a lottery team play.

“I do think the reality is that we know this is rampant right now,” Celtics coach Brad Stevens said. “And we’re doing everything we can, as I’ve said before, to prevent it, and it’s still going to find its way into the league, through travel parties; so we’re all assuming some level of risk. “And I think we accept that and, at the same time, we trust that the people in charge have health and safety as the No. 1 priority; and if it becomes too much, that’ll be somebody else’s decision who’s an expert at it.” – via Tim Bontemps @ ESPN Brad Stevens, Boston Celtics

Just did a little digging and can we guess who this troll is? Posted feb of 2019
“The last time the Celts made it to the Finals was in 2010. If Kyrie leaves the Celts then expect another decade of not making it back to the Finals because there's no way Tatum, Brown, Rozier, and Hayward will be able to beat teams like the Sixers and the Bucks in the playoffs.“
Would you say this is a real fan???

Real Celtic fans would never bash Isaiah Thomas.
Before IT came to the Celtics, the Celtics were just a lottery team hoping to get a top 3 pick in the draft.
When Ainge traded for IT, the Celts started winning games and the Celts were fun to watch again.
IT gave the Celts hope.
Mocking IT and taking pleasure in the Celtics getting beat by Lebron is not how a Celtic fan would normally behave.

Giving up on our young talented players this early??? For a decade?? “The last time the Celts made it to the Finals was in 2010.

There are 100s of these over the years. I ran out of file space for Fierce back some time ago. No need however.. He's alone here for the most part.. I think he prefers that.
