Hilariously bad Simmons’ Celtics takes:
- Really didn’t want to trade Holiday or Porzingis because “they meant so much to team off the court.”
- Thinks Porzingis can really help the Hawks playing off Trae, and the Celtics will bring him back in 9 months. Completely glosses over his horrific injury history and the long COVID bullshit. Did Porzingis cure cancer in Boston? I have no idea why he is beloved by their fanbase. He’s soft as baby shit and is never available.
- Thinks the Holiday trade is “good for both teams.” “Holiday can be a leader on that young team. “ He is declining rapidly, is 35 years old, and is due $100+ over the next 3 years. The Blazers got fleeced.
- Celtics should rush Tatum back for the playoffs. “Looking over the roster without Tatum they can win 50 games.”
- Celtics shouldn’t trade Jaylen Brown unless they get 200% on the dollar back.” Good fucking luck Bill.
- Simmons is super concerned about Horford joining the Lakers. WTF? Why? Horford is 39 and he would joins very old team. Is he worried about LeBron and Horford teaming up to run the LA Bridge scene?
Mannix is usually very good and an asshole but he only checked Bill on rushing Tatum back. Just sat there and nodded while Simmons ranted for 90 minutes.
