No. But Brad Steven's def did the right roster moves. JRUE HOLIDAY is def an underrated player. What he does on both ends of the court is amazing. Also what really hurt the Mavs was Kristaps Prozingis. The first 2 games the guy looked virtually unstoppable, Stretching the court, playing D and running to the hole for dunks. Kristaps is not Rudy Gobert and isn't a P*ssy like KAT was during the Minnesota series. Def an upgrade to just Gallinari and Al Horford over that 2022 roster. Brad Steven's deserves alot of props for this team and the roster moves.
this is poorly disguised spoof, yes? Suggestion: work on your material in a vacuum until it’s ready for unveiling to greater public. n/c
Nah - Jason Tatum was 22 years old when Udoka went to the Finals - plus he didn't have Jrue Holiday.... and the trek for the Celtics this year was extremely easy compared to most seasons. The Mavericks also were not world beaters either. Great season for the Celtics - but doesn't make Udoka look bad.
Bingo. The Holiday acquisition was major. The Celtics have a great supporting cast around their superstars.
Yeah, Jrue is a 2x All-Star and 6x All-Defense with sh*tloads of playoff experience (including a previous championship ring) only just barely outside his prime--he was a vital acquisition for them
The disrespect for Sam Cassell in this thread, from OP on down, is unreal. And you call yourselves Rockets fans. Y’all disgust me. (make that 4x NBA champ Sam Cassell)
Power rankings of last 3 Celtics coaches 1 Ahura-Mazzulla 2 Brad Stevens (mastermind) 3 Udoka Folks, here is where I remind you that Udoka had AARON HOLIDAY and that - despite the protestations of kneejerk BBS casualists - AARON HOLIDAY shot 38% from 3 last year which is objectively good.
