Yeah but you think the J's are even going to let him touch the ball that many times? Porz thought it was frustrating playing with Luka, the J's average over 40 shots a game and the celtics only had one other guy in double figures in shot attempts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud2nique Posted October 5, 2023 Report Share Posted October 5, 2023 Confidence check around the league… no problem there.. one on one .. make it happen.

I don’t think the big bad Celtics or Bucks are any better now. So their bigs are Horf and Porzingis?? Neither are guaranteed to make it to the end of the season. Jrue is a lock up artis... but not on Trae. Brown is still there though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Kornet was a consistent part of their rotation last season as well and he is 7'2''. Not a huge piece or someone who is a starter but if you are reduced to Horford or Porzingis and Kornet you are probably fine for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packfill Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 On 10/1/2023 at 2:38 PM, RedDawg#8 said: I’m really curious about this new look Boston. Jrue brings a lot of the same intangibles that they lost in Smart and Brogdon. But losing Robert Williams can’t be underestimated. Boston doesn’t have the same depth anymore. Their frontcourt depth is questionable. You’re relying on Porzingy and a 37 Horford to be in the lineup every night or else get stuck playing G-Leaguers up front. They are 6 deep on paper but those 6 guys are as good as any lineup you could find. I 100% agree on the Celtics lack of depth. That said, in trading Robert Williams and Brogdan it is not like they are trading two guys who are known for durability. Jrue is getting up there but he seems a lot more likely to play 70+ games then the guys they traded for him. They will have some real challenges during the regular season but if they make it to the post-season with their top 6 healthy the gamble pays off. We shall see.

Any one of those would be ugly as hell but combined that is brutal. And the nature of the opponent definitely impacts someone but not so much their shot. Those were some BRICKs. Surprised the backboard didn't break. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - Give me the first round pick. He can sink or swim on his own after that. He easily has the talent to play in the league but hasn't shown the mental strength and discipline to make good use of those tools. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure reading back through some of those Cam threads is comical at this point. We should be very happy we got a pick for that guy, and we were able to use it as a part of the package to get Murray. And that Charlotte pick might never convert in the first round the way things are looking over there. All in all, that worked out well for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
