He showed that he's still a good rotation player but he's been a non-starter for the last two seasons. He's overpaid but his contract is only for two more seasons. It's whatever. You were right on the money on the Tito's Son vs. Dwight debate last summer. Horford is 10X the player Dwight is right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horford is 10X the player Dwight is right now. Only it wasn't a debate. We signed Dwight first. Al could have signed here but chose to bail. Howard didn't limit our options with Horford in any way. A lot of us thought that after the whining Horford did about wanting a true center that this gave the Hawks a chance to get a truly elite frontcourt where we could mix and match Sap, Horford and Howard to flash some very different looks that would be very tough for teams to match. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't talking about that part. He was talking about my direct opinions on Howard. I explained exactly what he will do for this team and he actually did a tad more than I expected but his impact was pretty much what I expected. Of course, several players who had a good impact or just could be effective regressed with Al leaving like Thabo, Bazemore, and Korver who is producing in Cleveland.

Moderators Popular Post AHF Posted May 25, 2017 Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 Horford is doing just what he was expected to do as well. Faces the Cavs, won't fight for rebounds to the detriment of his team: Horford 4.5 rpg Love 12.3 rpg Celtics outrebounded on the series by 26 rebounds. Horford outrebounded by Love by 33 rebounds. JR Smith 16 defensive rebounds. Al Horford 13 defensive rebounds. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Cleveland series he was 12.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, shooting 45%.....Beast Mode, Alice style. We have very different definitions of beast. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should really be a surprise but somehow its not one. But hey, tonight Al absolutely dominated the Cavs shooting guard J.R. three rebounds to one, must be because it was the all important elimination game at hand. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's permanently in the b*tch category with the cRaptors who concede whenever James is in their presence. And also, "beasts" don't cower at the sight of any player so I'll expect you never to use that word to describe Alice ever again. No ones saying you can't be a fan but let's get real about things.

Guest Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Supes has to always go overboard with his adjectives concerning Al. It's a lost cause trying to debate Supes about Al The first time he said Al was better that Karl Malone - I knew it was a lost cause - so I leave him be. I just like to remind him ever so often about OJ Mayo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted May 26, 2017 Moderators Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Fewest rebounds of all Celtics starters in closeout game. Alice Beast Mode. Finished the series outrebounded by Love 62-21 (notably if you take that matchup out the Celtics actually outrebounded the Cavs). Ended up with fewer rebounds than the Celtic's backup PG for the game and the series. "I call that beast mode *&*#!" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalabrine was piss'd. Would have liked to hear that. Boston benefits a lot in terms of perception (since the 1980s) because of the media hub that is Boston (particularly ESPN being local). Celts went down by 50% larger margins than we did in 2014-15. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of media guys have got to be a bit depressed I would think today, maybe not so active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a fraction of the cost, Taurean Prince averaged 11.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, shooting .558 and only about 2.5 assists less per game in his first playoff series.
