Obviously one was an 8 seed and the other a 1 seed, but Boston is suffering from the same shit as Houston was last year. Living by the 3 with a bunch of guys who really can't shoot the 3 all that well.
"Fred Hoiberg is not winning a playoff series. If the Bulls beat the Celtics, feel free to run this clip in some sort of mixtape for the rest of my life, but I'm not worried about Fred Hoiberg and the Bulls. I'm just not." -Bill Simmons on The Ringer's The NBA Show
This is the arguement i had with bosox mid season about the future of boston
I said either go all in and get jimmy and go for the ship, or start fresh around fultz or lonzo and trade IT bradley and horford for more youth/picks
At this point it really makes no sense to max a 29 year old IT, pay bradley, and expect them to do anything with fultz/lonzo.....still going to be mediocre af
Its neither here or there
Trade these older bums, and start fresh around fultz/lonzo
Lets not sit here and pretend like fultz or lonzo will help this roster and will get them any further. Cant turn into the clippers and do what they just did the last 5+ years. And ffs stop thinking yall have assets, all those assets fucking blow
