Banner Dreams & 2nd Apron Nightmares - Official 18x NBA Champion Boston Celtics 2025 offseason thread

It's still very early in the season but is it outlandish for me to say that I'm dissapointed with our record so far?



We haven't beaten any good teams and that loss to Indy still irks me

Can’t win Every game and considering we haven’t played 1 game at full strength I’m happy with winning 7 of 9 games.


Tatum playing like an MVP, Brown giving us 25/7/3.5 with excellent defense.
Pritchard, Queta took the leap.
Horford, Jrue, Hauser Giving us what they always give us.
Derrick White looking like Manu in his prime.

Kornet and Tillman been disappointing.


And last but not least we have some 7 foot 3 Unicorn capable of hitting 30 foot bombs at a 38% clip that we’ve yet to unleash and can do this.

Shouts to the boston celtics, y’all created the dominance others envisioned(clippers)


Dominant(multiple ecf/finals)and has the experience it takes to become repeat champions.

Not a Celtics fan but pullin for y’all to repeat. Boston done won me money

‪Mazzulla got too cute inserting Tillman in the starting lineup for absolutely no reason, it stunted the entire offense, played catchup the entire first half. Queta should be the starting Center until Porzingis comes bac‬k.

Tillman should play against teams 2nd string C if Horford and Queta are in foul trouble. Give Walsh more minutes at backup wing, and play Hauser at backup PF. We give up size but at least we have a competent offense. Of course this is as long as Jaylen and Porzingis are hurt.

What is Mazzulla's fear of just starting Queta at the 5 and bringing other bigs off the bench?

Queta with Tatum at the 4 will make both the offense and defense elite

And it would allow Horford to not play too many minutes. It's a no brainer

I just like that with guys out and threes not falling some nights they are still pulling out W's... these are games they would have dropped 2-3 years ago

Neemy growing right before our eyes. The development of Pritchard, Queta and Hauser throughout the years has been a beautiful thing to watch.



Baylor Scheierman got next.

Really love that we are focusing more on developing players. And these guys are playing serious rotational minutes

Gone are the days of Nesmith, Carsen Edwards, Romeo Langford, and Tacko Fall

We don’t have a choice with these 2nd apron rules. Gotta find cheap young talent
