Another fake comeback. I hate to say it but AD missing free throws when it matters the most? Cmon man

Having Wenyen back will be helpful, but Pelinka is gonna have to swing for a backup center that can hold up defensively to go with another forward. Bryant clearly cannot be trusted for even two minutes.

On the bright side the Celtics should’ve never let it get that close in the first place lol

Lebron really wanted to add that buzzer beater game winner against the Celtics to his legacy
Had no legs on that shot

If we don't trick off those 6 games we are 17-10...
What a waste.
No trade is going to change anything when clearly Bron is infatuated with holding the ball to close games.

There is just no reason to have Russ in the 4th quarter or in critical possessions. He is the definition of a bench player, essentially coming in to give someone a breather for a few.

But look at his stats. 20 pts 14 rebs off the bench. 
He hurts the team so much with his TOs that always lead to a 3 . I could make a long list of all the ways he kills us

2 games vs quality opponents that we tricked off.
Pat and None gotta go.
Closing lineup of games going forward needs to be DS, AR, Lonnie, Bron and AD.

I think it has to be Brown, Wenyen or someone who isn't on the roster already to close games.

Wouldn't mind Wenyen because of his energy.

Jovan reporting a trade may not happen for a few more weeks now. They continue to kick the can down the road. First it was 20 games in. Then it was December 15th. Now it'll be a few more weeks. Next it will be the trade deadline in February. Then it will be in June.

You understand how PR and gaming the fans/media works. Rob is trying to appear like he’s gonna do something to appease us restless and pissed off fans

Absolutely.
I'm not sold on DS as a closer, personally. I like Gabriel the most I think.

No, I get that. I do like his energy and his acceptance of his bench role... but I see his detriment as well.But look at his stats. 20 pts 14 rebs off the bench.

He's a role player. Every single role player in the history of every sport, they're not someone that you can build the team around, and if they are a team's central figure, the team sucks... but they do have value for the things that they're good at.
U'm not married to the idea of keeping him but I wouldn't be mad if we were forced to keep him so long as there is a very strict usage strategy.
