Celticd needs pieces but not necessarily Cousins or AD
You don't really need size at the 4 so much these days to get to the top of the nba
You need versatility at each position, veteran leadership and shooting

Perhaps not, but Celtics will also get to the rim at-will against Cleveland's pathetic defense.

There are only a handful of physical 4s in the entire league, and none of them play on team's that are particularly good, other than Kevin Love, if they actually put him in the post. Playing the 3 wings together is exactly what the Celtics want to do, and the reason that they acquired all of them, plus Marcus Morris. The ability to switch on everything is more important than just having some a big man to dump the ball down to.
If Ainge wanted Boogie, he already would've gotten him. AD is obviously incredible but would take too much to get most likely and is made of glass.

I dont think pelican would trade AD if they have a gun pointed to their head. Thats like lakers trading kobe you would have to empty a whole roster for that trade nobody wins.

D. Mitchell starting to playmake for others 
comfortable handling the ball already even in traffic
Lauri and Collins battling for the 5th spot on the Rookie First team
Tatum 14 points in the 3rd... Brown and Irving cooking. Team is just too much fun. White Gor Dawn will be byke and when/if the C's get that Laker top 5 pick
whether it's AD or someone like Bamba/Ayton

People ACTUALLY believe that the Celtics beating the cavs?
Is this REALLY a thing?
Hot takes season in full effect.
Thought this was the Fools Wylin’ thread for a minute.

If they had White Gor Dawn it'd be a flip of the coin. RN with Lebby playing these minutes and their defense looking somehow worse than last year, who knows. If they suffer any sort of injury to a key rotation player it could be unraveling
John Collins got some Mick Dice in him, dude has trampoline calves

So when they've been down by 4 points, they've still won a lot of games? This supposed to be saying something?

At this point it's getting spooky with Anderson
I'm also loving how CP got Phx and a Future Conley'less Grizz team as his first two games byke. Perfect way to integrate back in

Does Philly has the most talented frontcourt in the league?
Embiid, Simmons, Saric...all versatile big men, the more they play the more overwhelming it'll get for teams to defend against them.
Only argument I can think of is Davis and Cousins.
