Well Jayson Tatum looks like a Danny Ainge draft pick

Celtics offense looks awful.

Brad should develop an offense around lay-ups and free throws.

yes. ankle is a very rough joint to have issues with. in the best case he has no ligament damage and he basically has to pray the bones set right so as to not impact range of motion/gait/etc. worst case his ligaments are all ****ed up and bones don't align right and he ends up with a club foot.

Just did some quick reading on recovery time for broken ankles, seems within 3-4months he can go back to normal activity but competitve sports will take longer & some people have lingering effects for up to 2years. I withdraw my statement, hopefully Hayward has a successful surgery & think about next season at best to make a comeback. I probably give it a similar recovery time to pg13 though, 1year to get on the court & another year b4 he goes back to playing at allstar level, East going to suck this year *sigh*.

Not enough in the coaching dept. to make up for it either.

Don't think many of them give a **** as well, as seeing that happen is kind of a buzzkill. It's the one time when all the chemistry jazz isn't overrated so I'll withhold judgment on how good they are w/o Hayward.

Their depth was garbage and I'm sure they would have been lucky to win 48 games with him, going to be hard to playoff now.

Eastern Conference literally dead in one night and LeBron gets another cakewalk to the finals in what should have been the first somewhat competitive East of his post- Cavs exodus career

They will easily make the playoffs without him, just zero shot once they get there. Assuming he's out for good.

Their o/u was like 54 and something like 39 will get you in.

Celtics network does their own halftime show and they had a Boston ortho doctor on, says he could be back in action by March. Of course he is just speculating with the info he has, but it at least sounds a little optimistic

Hopefully they trade for Cousins, pretty sure they can get him considering pelicans a lock to suck and going to trade him b4 allstar break.

Yep, I've avoided it so far. I don't know what happened to me, about 10 years ago I became a huge pussy when it comes to watching sports injuries.

Some reason this injury doesn't bother me at all.

It is a dislocated/broken ankle, 99%.

So whatever the time table is on that, probably the year.

Celtics 5-year ring equity remains unchanged.

Horfords been chirping at Crowder since that injury. I wonder if he's blaming him a little

Just tuned into the thread. lol at thinking it's anything but an ankle completely snapped in half. Not only can you see it, but did you hear it? You could hear the snap. It was loud.
