Terry is overrated. What did he have one season where he was money.

[IamRalpho]

Terry has averaged over 15 points a game every season except for one his entire career.

I mean hes worth 5 million a year if hes doing 15 points a game at least, so its not like hes just some bum who doesnt have a track record.

Not a guarantee. You can not make a trade with the hope of an extension. It would be 40 games of Reddick for whatever.

Jason Terry isnt going anywhere because of his contract and his age, and even if you do deal him, you are gonna get nothing good in return.

Id rather have Courtney Lee than JJ Reddick, I am sorry. Gimme the young guard who hustles and plays defense over a specialist.

JJ Reddick career 3P% 39.9
Jason Terry career 3P % 37.9

Not a huge difference, not huge enough to deal young talent for 40 games. I am sorry.

[IamRalpho]

I got nothing.

This team sucks.

[brandonlec]

They look absolutely exhausted.

Congrats to Mr. Rondo for the triple double, but boy he sucked it up in the overtimes.
Garnett had a great game.

The Celtics are lucky they are in a TERRIBLE conference.

They will probably make the playoffs under .500 again.

[murrke03]

I don't understand how teams lose huge leads like that. It dumbfounds me every time.

[IamRalpho]

Losing 6 in a row
Lost a game up by 27

And Miami is coming Sunday!

YAY!

[brandonlec]

I can't wait for LeBron and Wade to go for 70 combined against us Gonna be so fun

-Brandon

[pnft17]

inexcusable loss. Blowing a 27 point lead, what a freakin joke.

Now watching the green teamers make excuses on Comcast postgame show. Tangay loving Courney Lee, Scal saying he won't point fingers at anyone. At least Donny called them out for jogging back on D and Atlanta getting a bunch 3-2 in 3rd quarter. He even called out Green asking why he didn't get back. But Tangay pipes in right away with back to back excuse and how they played well in the 4th. What a dipchit he is.

Tommy Heinsohn must be rolling over in his grave

At least you didn't blow a 20 point lead to the Cavs bench like the Bucks did tonight

Except that Redick is better at every other phase of the game as well at this point. Reddick is much more than a specialist. You are selling him short. Much better player than he was 2 or 3 years ago.

Oh Tommy was even on road tonight doing TV. Doing his homer calls, how Celtics always get bad calls ect.

Doc laughing it up in postgame presser. He lost 18 row once before as player blah blah blah... He is just in his cashing his check mode now. He is going to keep searching we have the right group crap. Looks like he could care less. Didn't even look mad they lost tonight.

[pac213up]

Probably the worst stretch of basketball I can remember from Paul Pierce.

Still, 40 games for him. Why would you deal a younger, and truthfully better player for the Celtics for 40 games of him?

Redick is playing well on a bad team. Good for him.

You are crazy if you think moving Lee or Bradley to make room for Redick. I am sorry, does not make sense.

He's having a good year because A) Howard is gone B) Its a contract year and hes playing more.

If you can get him cheap, sure but you dont trade Avery and Lee who were both bright spots tonight for 40 games of Redick.

Not sure what you expect for him? Threaten to trade everyone after every loss?

Not sure why all the Doc hate comes out NOW? Doc called the starters out tonight too, he admitted where the issue was.

This is on Pierce and the lack of bigs right now.

[pnft17]

Wow Scal and Donny want some moves to be made. Can't happen soon enough. I hope Danny is on the phone getting something done asap.

You don't trade Avery for Redick. Lee is a very expendable player though. Ainge probable keeps Avery, unless like I said multiple times, a Big becomes available.

You will see multiple moves. I would be shocked otherwise.

Why is he expendable? Explain to me why. Guy is the back up point guard and one of the few guyys playing well AND they signed him for multiple years.

Why would they sign him for that long if hes expendable? He is someone they want to build around not deal after 40 games.

You said you would move Bradley or Lee to make room for Reddick, never said straight up.

[pnft17]

What about Pek? He is leaving Wolves, the can't afford to resign him.

Pek/Dill/JJ for Avery/Sully/Lee

He has been on 4 teams in 5 years for a reason. He is expendable because they have Bradley and his contract is decent for his level of play. He is an asset to acquire other pieces, always has been. Bottom line is the Redick rumor is coming from legit sources. You do not trade for Redick and keep Terry, Lee, and Bradley as well.

You dont sign him for 4 years to spin after 40 games, and you dont not sign a back up point guard and give it to Lee just to trade him right away.

But also, bottomest line, hes playing very well now. Better than most of the team. Trading him because you want a 3pt shooter for 40 games is stupidity.

I am fine with getting Redick and being creative, but trading Lee is stupid.

How do you know its a legit source? I mean there are a lot of stupid rumors out there and gonna be a billion more within the next 3 weeks
