Sad to see, hope he comes back strong next year.

I hated moving him. He's fucking electric.

The health is a definite issue though.

Agreed. I was really bummed when he was moved. He was a ton of fun to watch when he was healthy.... But he's spent more time hurt than healthy. Makes me sad... But it was the right move for the C's.

Hope he can recover and put together some quality time on the court... But it just doesn't seem likely.

I said at the time that I wouldn't have done it. I think the health keeps it from being terrible, but I don't care. I liked the team better with Rob on it.

If you look at the offseason as a whole, Porzingis and Holliday is probably a double upgrade from Smart and Rob. Kristaps has been one of my dream Celtics since before he got beat to shit by injuries, and his game has matured a lot. That move was a home run to me right away.

But man healthy Rob is just so fun to watch.

Sad to see for him. Good player.

And the Oden cycle repeats...

You mean the Bowie cycle? Or the Pryzbilla cycle?
