1. Cheering for opposing players is fucking soft

2. That tweet about replacing him was hilarious

 

[bosoxlover12]

Celtics fans have wanted Hayward in Boston since we hired Stevens. This isnt new at all

 

[buzzy]

he talks like he's 15

 

[Paulius]

New or old news , cheering for opposing players is soft af imo.

 

[bosoxlover12]

you think everything is soft

 

[Paulius]

Not at all , but cheering for a different teams player is , stop denying that just bc its the celtics who did it

 

[BrewCrewFan]

IT is soft 

 

[Paulius]

Nah IT isnt soft

Middleton is soft tho

 

[bosoxlover12]

they werent rooting for him smh
 
when they announced his name in the starting line, there were more cheers than for other jazz players. thats all that happened, and jae freaked out
 
if anything, hes the one thats soft

 

[bosoxlover12]

IT is soft 

Looks like you've never seen a single game of the Celtics in the past few years
 
hes literally the opposite of soft

 

[Paulius]

But in a way , hayward on the celtics would be actually quite interesting

 

[BrewCrewFan]

Nah IT isnt soft

Middleton is soft tho

 
Ya but we know Giannis isn't soft 

 

[Paulius]

Still hate horford on that team , but IT / Bradley / hayward would be niiice

 

[BrewCrewFan]

What would the Bucks have to give up to get IT?
 
Middleton, + 2017 1st RD Pick, + ?

 

[bosoxlover12]

His defense has been amazing -- by far the best defender we've had in the past 8 years. Only 2008 KG (and pre-injury 2009 KG) have been a better low post defender than Horford has been right now
 
his offense is just way too passive. he hits his threes most of the time, ye hes just way too hesitant and often passes up an open 3 to a more contested look
 
he's hardly a bad signing, but he's more of a 4th option, when we signed him as a potential 3rd.

You sure are something special here

 

[BrewCrewFan]

You sure are something special here

Healthy Middleton is a very good player and this draft is deep

Brogdon/Middleton/Picks

 

[bosoxlover12]

that deal is almost worse than cancer

 

[BrewCrewFan]

that deal is almost worse than cancer

You overrate your players so much

Nice nice , how many rebounds he averaging? I feel like a Hayward signing would be so clutch for yall. Then get a big mofo at PF to get rebounds and play defense and yall would be set. Very exciting team
