Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5279185, member: 1414"] Jrue is a nice player. The Celtics have a much better record when he asserts himself and scores more than a dozen points. I feel like in high stress situations they stop looking for him and he stops being assertive. He's definitely not a "problem" aside from what they get for that salary on a team that also has White and Pritchard. KP, when healthy and playing well is great. But he's not really what they need or ever needed. They need a guy more like Bam Adebayo. A guy who plays D, rebounds, runs the floor and can score at the rim when the D inevitably comes out on all the Boston shooters. I don't want the Celtics 5 standing outside, it leads to horrific rebounding results like we saw last night. In recent years Al was good enough on the defense and rebounding side to be that guy, but he isn't anymore. [/QUOTE]
