    Peeps need to forget PHI. That was just a horrible fit. In OKC, Al was actually pretty good. Not bad, not average, not great either but pretty good. He can really help Celts imo. He doesn’t need to carry em or be some superstar. He just needs to do play his game. He makes others around him better & is a smart player. Sets good screens, knows where to be. Can space floor & open up lane for Jays. No he’s not in prime anymore. But his game was never predicated on athleticism. He still can help team & will. He also doesn’t need to play 30+ minutes nightly. They obv gonna resign Rob who wants to be there & Moses was a nice get. They can keep TT or trade him. If TT was causing problems or isn’t a fan of Brad, then he obv needs to go cuz only an idiot would have prob with Brad. That includes Tatum & Brown. If those guys have issue with Brad, then I’d trade either of those guys for right players. Sadly, those guys so good, most likely the right guys won’t be available for em since the right guys are only the top 10 or so in league. Not even all of em as age plays a factor. But BOS fans prob kiss the Jays ass. I’m sry but they have a Timberwolves 2.0 feel. Jaylen made comment last yr that he didn’t like negativity or bad coverage when they were losing. Sounded like Rick pitino. That is worrisome cuz I know when I’m not doing something well, I don’t want someone telling me how great I’m doing & blowing smoke up my rear when I know it’s not true. Is that serious what these kids & coddled athletes want these days. Oh your doing great, you guys are so amazing. As your not trying for long stretches of game or season & showing absolutely zero pride. Oh u wanna stomp on the logo Kyrie, go right ahead. We don’t care about the franchise or ourselves. What jokes. They young so I wouldn’t give up on them if were BOS fan. But make no mistake, even a Wizards or Kings fan wouldn’t be ok with players having no pride or heart. And I would think BOS fans would have higher standard in their players. Not put em on pedestal free of criticism & instead scape goat 1 of the best coaches in NBA in last 30 yrs. wahhh, he doesn’t have title. Oh yeah, cuz he’s had a champ roster every yr. 90% of league would lineup to sign Brad as coach. I know some BoS fans know how good he is. It’s just for a fan base I once considered smart, there was an awful lot of toolbags in that region who wanted Brad gone cuz of 1 weird yr with covid, protocols, injuries, and whatnot. I don’t put effort & pride on coach either. Shameful any BoS would. No other team fanbase thinks that coaches responsibility. Once again, gotta wonder if that fanbase is getting changed by the new generations. Cuz the old Celtic fans would’ve blamed players for not smashing Kyrie or at least callling him out. And def wouldn’t scapegoat coach. Don’t wanna hear it’s just a dumb logo either.logo ain’t got 💩 to do with it. It’s the intent. He was peeing on the region, but also the orginization. And last I checked, the players are a part of that. But maybe those guys too stupid to understand or too soft to care. I hope Brad is a coach again cuz guy deserves it. 1 yr they underachieved. F’ing ONE!!!! And it was with that toolbag kyME. You don’t even have to be a Celtic or cav fan to hate that toolbag narcissist. You just have to hear the scumbag talk. Just him opening his mouth elicits a small of 💩 from the Leftover bull. Shame on Jays if they had hand in Brad stepping aside. Shame on em for not coming to Brads defense too & taking accountability like true stars would & should. But hey, Brads not black so why do they care. Selfish soft babies. Time will tell if they change & they young & have some time. But clocks ticking & if they don’t, BOS ain’t winning anything. They gonna be shinier version Of the TWolves. Regardless, Al is gonna help, and maybe the can sign some1 in the mold of a PJ Tucker or someone like that who won’t put up with soft, no pride mentalities
