I'm thinking in his mind when the playoffs roll around, there will only be 9 players who will get consistent minutes

You got

Kanter
Smart
Robert Williams
Langford
Grant Williams
Wannamaker

So outside of Kanter and Smart... looks like he went the cheap route and just invested in rookies and a couple offensively challenged roll players
Kanter isn’t an everyday player. He can only play based on matchups.

Boston should’ve went after capela

Exactly. My only guess is Danny is holding on to those draft picks for dear life
Maybe waiting for Hayward contract to go. He’s been actively shopping him for a while now. Nobody won’t bite. And he doesn’t want to attach nothin to him get rid of him. You think he would go all in like Miami in a season when there’s no clear dominant favorite like GSw to worry about.

no

im proposing it as an idea

consolidate assets..move tatum to the 3...prevent nets from getting him

Bradley Beal would be nice, but I like Brown

Plus Beal doesn't play defense, and I'm worried that he's prone to be a volume shooter. Having two volume shooters (Tatum and Beal) wouldn't be good IMO

The best way to improve the Celtics is addition by subtraction. Similar to getting rid of Kyrie. Just get rid of Hayward for a starting true center, and Celtics are easily the best in the East

Who is the starting center?

I think Beal and Tatum would be fine. Better than starting 3 wings. Beal is not terrible defensively and would instantly be our best scorer

I'm just in fear of volume shooters who are sub-par at defense. They scare me
Tatum would have to pick up the slack now on defense on the perimeter, and now with our lack of capable centers, the interior defense would suffer even more

Our starting center is between Theis and Kanter. So we deff need an upgrade
