The Warriors are going to the finals, what are you thoughts Mark Jackson?
 

 

[cruzg24]

Warriors! This is gonna be a good NBA Finals.

Mark Jackson giving Kerr props, good for him. Kerr rookie coach taking a team to the Finals, very nice.

The Warriors would have gone to the Finals with or without Kerr.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Their defense is all credit to Kerr. You can't discredit him like that

 

[cruzg24]

Also, Woj on Kevin Love
 

“He sort of took the trade to Cleveland without really talking about what his role would be, or discussing with [David] Blatt how he’d be used. I think he’s going to look around,” Wojnarowski said. “I think he’s going to look closely at Boston. I think he’ll look at LA. I’m sure the Texas teams are going to try and get involved

 
I'm going to be so sick of this all summer, with /r/bostonceltics going nuts over this. I don't even want Kevin Love at this point, nor will he come here anyways

 

[elcheato]

The only meaningful way the Celtics can improve is through free agency, and you're trying to sell the fact that you don't want the 2nd best UFA? 

 

[bosoxlover12]

Aside that he wont come, I really want defensive presence on the team. The bigs we had last season: Zeller, Olynyk, Bass, Sullinger, Jerebko -- all are offensive big men. Isaiah Thomas was scoring at a good rate, and Crowder/Turner provided good scoring at the wing, with Smart and Bradley offering scoring help too in addition to their great perimeter defense. 
 
Adding Kevin Love obviously improves our offense; he'd be our best player easily. But he's really not good at defense, at all. I'd put it at below average, and a definite defensive downgrade from Bass at the 4. I'd rather spend the cap we have on Brook Lopez, or if we can get him Lamarcus Aldridge. Nobody would be scared of attacking a post when the guys defending low are Kevin Love and Tyler Zeller. But Lopez or Aldridge would definitely improve the post defense, and I'd rather spend the cap $$ on those guys
