Why? Why? Why?
What is the infatuation the Boston media and a lot of it's fan base have with Stevens? That dummy is like the teflon don. We might end up trading away our best players in favor of this idiot coach.

Cause they still stuck on him overachieving with those IT teams and they put all that stock in him being Pop 2.0 and don't want to accept reality that he's not what they hyped him up to be.

He just signed a long-term extension in the bubble and Wyc isn't about to being paying two coaches so yeah, we're stuck with him.

Perk speaking straight facts about Smart :wow:

The 2020-21 season has been a sheer disappointment for the Boston Celtics. They’re barely above .500 after back-to-back losses to the Miami Heat, which ended any possibility of potentially securing a top-six seed.


The play-in tournament is the likely scenario for the C’s right now. With Jaylen Brown recently going down with a season-ending wrist injury, there’s not much to be positive about.


Meanwhile, former Celtics big man Kendrick Perkins gave his take on what needs to change within the organization in the offseason. He boldly said that Boston needs to get rid of Marcus Smart.

“I think something drastic needs to happen and it’s not firing Brad Stevens,” Perkins said Tuesday on Celtics Pregame Live. “I think that Marcus Smart has ran his course. I think guys are tired of hearing his voice in the locker room. I think guys are tired of his ill-advised shot taking at times, some of his turnovers that he has.

Perk went on to voice that if Smart just played his role with the Celtics as a defensive mainstay, the team would be a lot better off.


“If Marcus Smart could be just a star in his role, and that means bringing that defensive intensity, diving on the floor for loose balls, those hustle plays on the other end, not trying to do so much. You can see it in people’s body language, when he tries to do too much it deflates the team. So I do think the Celtics need to look into moving Marcus Smart this summer, to be honest with you.”

Smart is averaging a career-high 13.1 points per game this season, but he’s also shooting well under 40% from the field and downtown. He’s currently the longest-tenured Celtics player, having been with Boston since 2014.

A shake-up is clearly needed for the C’s in certain areas. They’ve always been known to be a pretty solid defensive team, but this year they’re ranked 18th in the league.

However, the Celtics still have a chance to make some noise in the play-in. Jayson Tatumand Kemba Walker will need to step up immensely, while Smart will be looking to play a key part too in what could possibly be his last year in Boston.

Celtics desperately need a point guard

Sucks that Payton Pritchard is our only true point guard
