I wonder if we could hire him as a traveling consultant.

The one that just travels with Smart so when Smart has his violent outbursts of rage he can just punch Pitino instead of things like walls or glass objects.

It'd be the first beneficial thing Pitino did for the Celtics franchise.


Bad idea. He'd be throwing parties with strippers and prostitutes in every city. Our players would be exhausted from all of the orgies. Scary Terry knows. :lol:

Or perhaps we could get him to work in the sales department and have him work in a call center and have him call up season ticket holders to discuss renewal plans and options.


I would love to see him coach the Lakers and see if he could do for them what he did for us. I am sure Lebron can't wait to do the full court press.

I never played Red Dead Redemption 1, is this a barrier to playing RDR2? Or like, am I just not going to get my money's worth if I didn't play the first?

It’s a prequel so you should be more than fine.

There's another thread for this, but it's also not a prequel where you gain much - at least from what I've seen so far - from knowing the first game..

They're pretty much the best team in NBA history at this point. Annoying as ****, but you gotta appreciate the greatness.

It’s a joke at this point.

Hopefully Kerr leaves Klay in so he can set some personal records. I suppose that’s entertaining.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

The Bucks always had the talent there and now they have one of the best coaches in the business. They're the one team I wanna avoid in the playoffs.

I don't think it's right/fair that one team has three guys that can score 50 points any game. Unless those three guys are on the Celtics.

Pretty disappointing that Sac is now off to a 4-3 start after tonight's win. It's early, but they are not looking like the bottom 3 team we all thought they'd be.

Looks like we have the chance to knock off the last undefeated team in the league on Thursday.

Kyrie started the revolution though by dumping him first.....never forget that.

He arrived at the Celtics door step beaten up and abused mentally and physically by the evil Cavs and Lebron and we are still mending him back to full strength again. :(
