Who is the X-Factor off the bench?

Who is the X Factor off the Celtics bench this season? Is there that bona fide come-in-the-game, lead-the-second-unit- bucket maker? Will it be PP, Aaron, or newly acquired JRich? Who do Celtics fans want to see be that sixth man. Historically the Celtics have always found that player. Hondo or McHale anyone!

We saw last season Payton Pritchard had the ability to make plays off the bench. Now with a year under his belt, can new Coach Ime Udoka give him the Green light?! With that being asked of him Celtics fans know he can score at will. He did it in summer league and the Pro Am! Time will tell for PP!

Then there's Aaron who showed plenty of promise in his first year. Willing to drive to the hoop, run the break, and knock down threes! He also showed flashes of lightning in the summer league. He could be instant offense for this year's Celtics team.

What about JRich,a guy fans saw as an opponent come in and light the Celtics up regularly. Given his length and ability, can he be that spark of fire off the bench? Celtics fans know he's a dawg on D, time to feed him offensively off the bench? Will it be Dennis Schroder, another streaky kind of shooter, who can get to the hoop at will. So many questions about the bench but we need to know who's cracking that starting five.

Celtics fans who are your starting five this season? Bench favorites? Is Brad still looking for more fire power?!

Did the Celtics Kevin McHale really have a wingspan of 8-feet?

According to many sources, the Celtics Kevin McHale did indeed have an estimated wingspan of 8-feet. One of those sources is Wikipedia, as seen below: Kevin McHale American basketball player DescriptionKevin Edward McHale is an American retired basketball player who played his entire professional career for the Boston Celtics. He is a Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, and is regarded as one of the best power forwards of all time. He was named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team. Wikipedia Born: December 19, 1957 (age 61 years), Hibbing, MN Wingspan: 8′ 0″ Height: 6′ 10″ Spouse: Lynn McHale (m. 1982) NBA draft: 1980, Boston Celtics (Round: 1 / Pick: 3) Hall of fame induction: 1999 Number: 32 (Boston Celtics / Power forward, Center) Kevin was listed at 6'10" tall when he was drafted with the 3rd pick in the 1980 draft. Red Auerbach, in yet another heist, brought in both McHale and center Robert Parish (via trade) prior to the Celtics' 1980-81 Champion

In defense of Marcus Smart

Let me make it clear first of all that I am totally against making a threat of any kind that even hints at harming, or certainly killing, another human being. Marcus Smart was wrong in doing so in the Celtics loss to the tanking Oklahoma City Thunder , and he deserved the one-game suspension. But to be honest, part of me loved that it occurred. . This type of thing can happen when a player gets to a point "beyond frustration" and is having a bad game. Marcus and his teammates have been under-performing generally - were in the process of losing to a pathetic-and-tanking Thunder team - and Smart was having a bad game . And he let loose verbally at the closest target - an NBA official. Wilt Chamberlain did a similar act versus referee, Earl Strom when Wilt was having his usual tortuous time at the free throw line (per Chicago Tribune's Sam Smith): ''He was in one of those 1-for-13s,'' recalls referee Earl Strom. ''Nothing was getting close. S
