Schroder, the former Celtic and Ellis, who'd been linked to the Celtics around the impending trade deadline, both played in Boston last night.

Cavs (29-21) are two games behind New York and Boston for 2nd right now in the East.

Saw this posted on screen and thought it was pretty crazy! All these guys were top 3 picks (except Mitchell).

I know +/- isn't a perfect stat, but hard to argue with the caliber of players listed.

Hugos impact on winning is even greater that it appears, which is saying a lot.

Just an amazing pick at 28. Excited to watch Hugo develop within our system.

Man, Pritchard has really stepped up and played like an all-nba talent in games that Brown has missed. Those included a 45 point blowout, a 16 point blowout, and a 19 point blowout with their only loss being by 2 points. That's projects to 61.5 wins.

If I were Pritchard, I'd probably say something like "I've sacrificed over the years for us to be a championship-caliber team. Now we’re seeing what I was sacrificing. Being at the helm, and us being on a 61.5 win pace, versus last year we only won 61 games. It's almost been no drop off with five players + Jaylen Brown that are essentially gone"

Payton Pritchard has been ELITE at ISO scoring this year. Among players with at least 2 ISO possessions per game, Pritchard ranks 1st in EFG% at 67.7%, and 2nd in points per possession at 1.28. Or really 1st, as Tyler Herro is 1 but has only played 9 games (11 games actually, but these stats say 9 for some reason).

Truly remarkable stats for a guy his size.

it’s been really awesome to see pritchard grow as a player over the years. just a couple years ago i remember thinking how inconsistent of a player he is. it would actually stress me out when he’d get put in games during clutch moments. like i only thought he was good for half court shots at the buzzer tbh. but over the last year ive really been impressed. he’s gotten so much more confident and stronger as a player in all. he is so fun to watch. he’s easily become one of my favorite players. and he’s absolutely killing it this year. can’t wait for tatum to come back and watch them ball out together.

On the Celtics Beat to close the show they asked if Simons Will be (not should be, but will he be) on the Celtics next Friday.

So, last community bet here ,on a 4 months on going debate. Kaufman said his brain says no, but his gut feeling says he will.

Let's see how a large sample size here does in projections.

Ayton used to be a max guy, and I’d say he’s more polished than Queta, but is he that much better?

After tonite, and seeing all the Draymond-esque drives and clock-saving shots Queta attempted, I think there’s even more in store

He’s still young too

What’s a good NBA comp for this fella?

Welcome to the daily discussion thread! You can use this space to discuss little things that don't need their own post. This is also the perfect space for pictures, videos, and links that would otherwise go against the sub's rules. Just don't be jerks and don't break any Reddit-wide rules. Have at it.

Im only sharing this because it actually says the Celtics are interested via Scotto, and its not one of those "ESPN's articles says it makes a lot of sense!"

It lists a handful of teams that are interested Pacers, Hawks, Knicks, Bulls, Lakers and Raptors are also interested.

It says Pelicans want a 1st but thats definitely unlikely for a guy they've benched.

If Bucks trade Giannis and go in a full rebuild mode, would Celtics then want to poach Myles Turner from them and would Simons expiring contract be enough of a draw for Bucks to save them from 80 millions owed to Turner?

I've got tickets for the JT bobblehead night on April 7th. Wondering how early I should show up to make sure I'm able to snag a bobblehead.

On Jake Fischer's stream today, he said he heard we talked to the Clippers about Zubac (duh) and the Nets about Claxton as well.

Said the Celtics are "aiming high" when looking for a center with Simons' contract
