    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    This is a really helpful analysis, and I agree that JBB has done better job than Spo (though in fairness, he also has better personnel). I think the key to the series so far, however, is that JBB said going in to this series that his defensive game plan was to hold the Celtics to fewer than 40...

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    When Porzingis suffered a calf strain in November, he missed four games over 14 days. That was called a mild strain. Obviously we don't know if this one is worse, not as bad or the same. But optimistically he could be back by the ECF, or even sooner.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I started game 3 watching TNT, then remembered that the local guys were doing the game. I switched over and it felt like the sun shining through the clouds after a gray, rainy day. I literally breathed a sigh of relief. Brain Anderson simply would not shut up. Listening to him is like being...

    4/17 vs Guardians

    Is Hamilton allergic to bases? He doesn't seem to like touching them with his feet.

    Is Casas on drugs for this game? What is he doing out there?

    4/16 - vs Cleveland - in which Dalbec finally gets a hit

    Sorry, a runner who makes that kind of a blunder shouldn't be able to call for a review. Come on.

    4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....

    The 10th worst team from 2023, Cleveland, won the lottery and gets the top overall pick. The team with the worst record, Oakland, picks 4th. Kansas City, with the second-worst record, picks 6th. The Red Sox with the 11th-worst record will pick 12th.

    4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....

    Harold Reynolds on MLB Network: "I'd bring up Mayer right now." Not so sure about that, but anything's got to be better than this.

    Tuesday: @ Milwaukee

    This is, or at least should be, a complete embarrassment for the NBA. People paid good money to see this game. If I had bought a ticket, I'd demand my money back. Sure, you know asa paying customer that not every game will be a good one. But as consumer you have a reasonable expectation that...

    Playoff Fear Factor: Which EC team is your top concern?

    I voted Pacers, because while I ultimately can't see them beating the Celtics four times in seven games, their team speed and pace of play seems to give the Celtics fits. Other than that, the only team capable of beating the Celtics is the Celtics. Stay healthy, stay focused and they got this.

    2023-24 Celtics

    Might be worth noting that while the Celtics have of course won 17 championships, as of this year they have won 60 or more regular season games 14 times. Winning 60 has been historically more difficult than winning the title, at least for the Celtics.
