    In a vacuum…not a huge fan of this. Celtics need a big, true - but one who can stay on the floor, and Porzingis, while a good player overall, is far from being that

      The Celtics didn’t lose because of their lack of a big. They lost because of their terrible team play and coaching. I’m happy to see them lose because it’s boring to watch them play, but it’s mystifying to me how NBA players on a team that is legitimate championship contender would be content with that level of offense.

      But maybe the tall guy can make it easier for the coach to mix up their offense.

      He played 60 something last season? Not great I agree. I too am worried about the injury risk. We kind of need the Celtics to have 1 season of good injury luck!
