I 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!

Watching 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 year

Celtics never shoulda traded Eddie House at the 2010 deadlin. E-House was awesome against the Lakers in 2008 with how LAL guarded Rondo and we missed Eddie in 2010. Bummer

Paul George may be moving into the next phase of his career, following a post-2020 Gordon Hayward downward slope

Karl Malone was under 50%FT as a rookie, under 60% in second year… and then less eight years he was 75-80% from the line on high volume

It’s great for the Celtics that Clips took the youngest and least ready to compete player. 2028 Celtics draft asset from LAC def looks stronger now

3rd in regular season seems completely fair, but playoff upside seems diminished if you swap in Paul George for Jaylen Brown… but I’ll take a 3-seed!

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
Marginal moves under the Booth regime, largely missed the mark. DaRon Holmes could still be a good player, and Brazile is the archetype of player that Jokic elevates, so he could maybe be something for a 30s drafted guy

imo, it’s pretty well established Cs system nets out great during the reg season, when opponents have less time to game plan and aren’t always even trying to win Problems come in the playoffs, tho. In last four years we’ve run this system, 3/4 playoffs ended in really bad upset defeats, imo

the new CBA just requires forward thinking, it’s a huge positive how it has stripped super rich teams GSW, LAC, etc from being able to run huge payrolls and gain competitive advntage at only the cost of paying the tax

If it’s 17-30 Celts get it outright If it’s 1-16 Celts get it but it’s a swap so Celts pick goes to PHI

Trading 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

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 03/07/2026
agree, complicated player Also, been in a system that is space out, high screen and drive-kick out… which isnt a tailor made fit If you want to knock Brown bc he’s negative on-off, know he had positive on-offs in regular season during the last year Brad Stevens, and the one year under Ime Udoka

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
It just doesn’t make sense if the reports of trading Jaylen for multiple players is accurate. No reason or need to do it… unless we are trading more players than JB … or keeping Jaylen

not possible, they’d still pay Sam and his salary would still count on the cap

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
Why would Celts sign Mike Conley if they are still trying to trade Jaylen Brown and taking back more players? Doesn’t make sense.

Caleb Wilson and Dailyn Swain tho!

Guys get better, get hurt, league trends change making certain players more/less valuable… don’t see how you can read any list of names and know future outcomes with pure certainty I didn’t havenLandry Shamet as a playoff factor this time last yr

Whoever 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

Does 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?

I hope Doc Rivers gets another good opportunity to be a head coach in the league nypost.com/2026/06/04/s...

Doc Rivers uses Knicks’ Game 1 win to shade other NBA execs — but won’t name names
Doc Rivers may have some grudges to settle.

And it flies in the face of how a person processes life If I try something twice in life and get a bad result, I think “okay, this isn’t working,I should try something else” in analytics you think “don’t stop now, the more it doesn’t work, the more we must keep doing it! It will revert”

Oak Barton @oakbarton.bsky.social · 25/05/2026
Watching 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

Using 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
