Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I don’t care if it’s only preseason, I am excited for a Celtics game. Feel like we haven’t had a game for six months! 030
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Watching Jaylen on Philly was just depressing Sixers got a fast, athlethic team with Jaylen, Maxey, VJ I like their role players too in Wade, Simons, Bona, Jabari Walker Philon is exciting rookie 76ers look really good to start the yearstatic.klipy.comJaylen Brown SixersALT: Jaylen Brown Sixers 040

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Trading Jaylen Brown for 2 seasons of Paul George at the same money seems like the closing of the Celtics window as championship contenders… at least for next year or two 180
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Why would Celts sign Mike Conley if they are still trying to trade Jaylen Brown and taking back more players? Doesn’t make sense. 120
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Including live streams on YouTube, the ESPN broadcast of the 1st round was maybe the 250th best broadcast of the 1st round, lol 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Why does Giannis suffer so many calf strains? Are those going to keep happening?? 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Whoever you’re rooting for in the NBA Finals, it kind of sucks that the Knicks home broadcaster is calling the games for the National audience 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Does anyone know what prospects Celtics requested interviews at the NBA draft combine? Last year, we know they talked to Tre Johnson, Asa Newell, among others… But I didn’t see reporting on who they had one-on-ones with this yrs combine. Anybody know? 000

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Luke Kornet -52 in 54 minutes in WCF Spurs miss Coach Pop… OKC coaching taking every edge 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Watching Spurs/OKC, I am asking, how many Celtics players could hang in this game? Do Celts have even, like, 5-6 players that could keep up? I’m thinking with how Maxey and Edgecomb had speed, athleticism that was too much to keep up with? This game quite a full notch higher on intensity totem pole 020
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Using the off arm to push off the defender is an offensive foul Offensive players who are reliant on it can get it called on them all day if the refs feel like calling it A better strategy is to not push off and commit the offensive foul in the first place 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 18/05/2026If Daryl Morey gets another GM job this summer, what teams have openings? I could imagine Lakers fire their front office and give Morey the GM job… But who else? Maybe the Nets? I don’t see a lot of teams who are gonna hire a new GM this year 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Game 7 tonight is Prime only? Golly, how the mighty have fallen. The way that Amazon has come in and told ABC/ESPN and NBC who is top dog, is really surprising 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 17/05/2026I love the NBA’s new lottery proposal… hope it get passed even if some entrenched executives holler weak sauce objections 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 16/05/2026If you do a sign-and-trade it has to be for 3 years. Do all 3 years have to be guaranteed? Can you do it with one year guaranteed and 2 team options? 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Sam Hauser has 3 years left, at almost $12 million/per I‘m wondering, is this a positive value contract right now? 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 14/05/2026If Celtics end up trading their 2nd rounder (#40) for a future 2nd or in a bigger trade, it’d be a nice opportunity for new Celtics ownership to buy a late 50s 2nd People have been questioning if Celts are gonna spend, and buying a late 2nd sends a symbolic signal that Cs still top level players 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 11/05/2026I think the primary change in officiating policy that encourages "physicality" is just blatantly ignoring the rule book on things like charges and forearm pushoffs and several other violations of the rule book that are no longer called as fouls 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 10/05/2026This move supports anti-inflammatory diets, which have been proven to be healthful. I hope all airlines remove all gluten-containing and sugar-containing snacks for the health of our country. thank you Delta! 020
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I'll watch NBA on Amazon Prime if it's the Celtics playing that's the best I can do it. Otherwise, working on other stuff, and waiting for NBA Playoffs on NBC/ABC network television or ESPN cable channel 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Reflecting on Celtics upset The MOST shocking thing is Celts org can not teach how to set an NBA screen within rules... Queta still giving an offensive foul setting it come game 5, 6, & 7 I have to ask: HOW IS THIS STILL HAPPENING?? How can NBA coaching staff not know rules for setting a scren? 110
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I'm a Celtics fan, I havent turned on Jaylen. If Brown is at odds with the coach and front office, I'm siding with JB, it's obvious to anyone astute about basketball that the insane, inverted principles of "analytics" is way more to blame than JB for the Celts bowing out vs deep, deep underdogs 100
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Shame the Celtics are out of the playoffs so soon. Gosh, play a whole season and lose as a 2-seed & be done by May 2... I think the Celts strategy has failed, and Celts braintrust won't accept the failure, will continue to fail in the same way next year, and it's time for some changes 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 05/05/2026For the Celtics, I'd actually be pretty excited if we could bring back Doc Riversmedia.tenor.coma man in a suit and tie is talking into a microphone while sitting in front of a crowd .ALT: a man in a suit and tie is talking into a microphone while sitting in front of a crowd . 100
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Brad has had five seasons as head of Celtics ops 22 - lost in Finals 23 - lost in conf Finals 24 - champs 25 - lost in 2nd round 26 - lost in 1st round Brad must be coming to the end of his extension, which was originated when he was coach If he wants to coach again, we will hear whispers soon 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 04/05/2026To me Jaylen Brown's floor game this year was the reason why Celts overperformed. JBs been a real balancing force over those of the "expected results" who are so quick with their printouts to show us all why reality's wrong, lol If JB/JT can fuse their styles thats the best path to Banner 19 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Celtics seasons over. Here are 7 good things 1. Queta's emergence 2. Hugo's rookie year 3. Baylor's development 4. Pritchard's production 5. Jaylen making the leap 10 years into his career 6. Tatum coming back from the horrible injury 7. Garza playing with grit & hustle 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 02/05/2026I'm hoping Sam Hauser and Derrick White have great games tonight. This series has been Bad, Bad, Bad for both guys 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Xavier Tillman's knees werent working, lol, but I kind of wish he was still on the Celtics. Having to dump vet minimum players to get prorated 2nd rounders to fill out the roster... kind of a bummer 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Derrick White for RJ Barrett and Collin Murray-Boyles at last draft was maybe never gonna happen. Even if Celts took a White for RJ + #9, they probably werent taking CMB, he's not a 3pt shooter To me, 2024 extensions, yrs & money, took away lots of upside in this window Hope we win gm 7! 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Celtics went all in on shooting. Other than Walsh & Queta on minimums everything on this team revolves around shooting 3's Celts have no athletes and can't keep up with Sixers speed. Also, the 2024 contract extension drunk spending locked us into this style and hamstrung the cap. 000

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Sam Hauser: 39.3% on 3-pointers in the playoffs and is a net rating -10 in 2-man groups with Jayson Tatum C's won the '24, Hauser + Tatum net rating was huge +16 ... concerning that Sam is faltering in this matchup even oncourt with JT Philly bad matchup, VJ, Maxey, PG, Grimes is too much speed 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Did the Celtics trade a second round pick for Jaden Springer because they knew doing so would give Philly an Extra $4M for free agency to sign Paul George to a 4 yr Max? Is that why Celts did that trade? To bury Phillies cap sheet under Embiid and PG for years? That would be Next Level Thinking??! 020
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Re-reading rumors at last year's draft about TOR offering #9 + RJ Barrett for Derrick White that Celts declined with laughter White's a great Celtic but he's almost 32. Celts coulda had Cedric Coward or CMB plus RJ is not horrible and will be expiring Did BOS pass up a sneaky GOOD deal from Raps? 010
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 22/04/2026That Portland game was GOOD TIMES for Celtics fans!!! 000
Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 16/04/2026For 76ers/Celts, I expect Nurse to try to bait the Celtics to shoot a ton of 3s, try to grind out some wins on nights the 3's arent falling I think Nurse wants to follow Thibs blueprint from last year I hope we use a balanced attack, and hope Queta can beast against Drummond/Bona like reg season 010
