    Round 3: Celtics vs Pacers

    Or still your aunt. It’s 2024 after all.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Good teams get bored and complacent all the time. The ‘86 Celtics did. The ‘08 Celtics did. It’s a function of being an order of magnitude better than the other team on the floor. The current edition shows the very positive sign of playing its best ball in hostile conditions. This gets...

    New York Knicks (2) vs Indiana Pacers (6) - 2024 EC Second Round

    I'm rooting for the Knicks to win ... in quintuple OT.

    Round 3: Celtics vs Pacers

    Well, they better not put in their normal Game 2 shyte effort this round.

    2024 NBA Draft

    If Boston drafted Hibachi the Tony Delk trade likely never happens. And Boston would have been building around Pierce/Johnson/Arenas. The Ricktator was gone by then.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    That seems like an opportunity made for the Spurs.

    2024 NBA Draft

    Joe Johnson was a legit all star at his height. If Danny Ferry hadn’t outsmarted himself (he was bragging about getting a washed up Larry Hughes and Donyell Marshall for what JJ would have cost) and just signed Johnson to begin with there probably wouldn’t have been a post-LeBron era in...

    2024 NBA Draft

    I’ll compare it to 2001. There are a ton of roleplayers in this pool. The problem is that the roleplayer section of the draft starts at #1. We’re talking about Zacho Falledey as a first round pick and the two 6’2” Kentucky guards as lottery picks. It’s a terrible draft to be in the lottery. But...

    2024 NBA Draft

    I’ve been saying this for a while now, I’ve spent my usual (obsessive) amount of time watching tape of all these guys. I know there’s an all star in there, because there always is. But I’ll be damned if I can figure out who it’s going to be. Stephon Castle maybe? On another note Boston should be...

    2024 NBA Draft

    I think it’s going to cost more than a single pick in a role player draft to acquire Trae Young. Atnalta already owns the first pick, why would they want even cruftier players?

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    It’s because he’s not 6’10”. He’s actually 6’8”.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Good to see that Boston’s game 2 effort levels have remained consistent. Hopefully they take care of business in Cleveland.

    Sox trade John Schreiber to KC for minor league right-hander David Sandlin

    I’m not talking about adding arms, Boston’s been good at that part of it. Where they’ve been mediocre to poor is in turning the live arms into good pitchers. They do seem to have made progress in that area very quickly.

    Sox trade John Schreiber to KC for minor league right-hander David Sandlin

    Don’t forget Justin Willard, the new Director of Pitching. The scouting department has turned up a lot of live arms, but the development has been mediocre to bad for a long time now. Dobbins, Perales and Gonzalez seem to have made some actual improvement in the new regime. I have hopes that...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Just think of the spike in Manhattan suicides if Boston takes both series.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    On the other hand, the JB/Kyrie/Luka Mavs would be must see TV. They’d probably be good on the court, as well.

    R7/231 Jaheim Bell TE Florida State- Doesn't this guy get a thread?

    Nahhh, Aaron was a bad shooter, he was an Uffie.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    Imagine being a Falcon fan this offseason, your team passes on hiring the GOAT coach, signs a vet QB anyway, and then drafts Penix at #8 rather than swapping back with those teams in the mid first desperate for a QB.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    At this point if Pratt and/or Rattler go in the top 40 I will officially be unshocked.

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    Yeah, I'm fine with Jacoby taking the hits next year while Maye learns. Let him take over in '25 when they've finally got a stable OL.
