Bizarre. If it was January, I might get it. You're gods in Boston. Why fly to Miami?
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Welcome to Florida, world champs.

There's just no place quite like Florida anywhere in the planet right now. Just like Monta Ellis, Florida have it all, except it really does.

Boston nightlife sucks relatively speaking. It’s not the place to celebrate an NBA championship. There’s fun things to do in the city and the surrounding areas but not for this.

Same reason people from London fly to Ibiza, Dubai and Malta during the summer.

Makes perfect sense. Great weather, great looking women, and great night clubs.

So what?

Yeah I’d be more surprised if they didn’t go someplace. Most teams go to Vegas, Miami. Strange thread

It's not bizarre at all. The nightlife is much better in Miami and it's how the team prefers to celebrate. They've earned to do as they please with the record they have and the way they played all season.

Because it's objectively more fun to party in Miami than it is Boston. They have the rest of their lives to remain gods in Boston

It’s nice to get away for a short time if you can. People do it in every city. People in LA go to Vegas for the weekend. People in London got to Tenerife, Ibiza or the South of Spain. People in Paris go to Cannes. Who hasn’t taken a trip out of town with friends to celebrate?

Do NBA players have any interests beyond beaches and bitches? Serious question.
