And we still got people crying about Stevens not being able to handle stars because of last season.

Once again proving that Kyrie is uncoachable. This is hilarious, lol.

Rivers complains that the clippers roster was unbalanced.

Rivers looks to take over a more unbalanced team in the sixers.

For the gazillionth time on Kyrie, even with Kemba struggling a bit in the playoffs:

Good. ****. Riddance.

Doc Rivers really tricked y'all. Keeps tricking GMs too, good for him. Gonna make 100 million as a coach before it's all over just through charisma and co-opting Ubuntu lmao

Sounds like Kyrie was not a fan of Stevens and Atkinson putting in work to develop a great team structure. :roll:

Can't imagine that was great for the locker room at the time.

Bam and Goran are doubtful for Game 2. They really couldn't do that in our series. Had to happen against the Lakers.

Wow. Unreal. Dude was flying around the court like prime Steve Nash 4 days ago.


What have the Celtics done to be unlucky compared to LA?


Being located in the north east in a cold weather city.....that’s it. lakers will always have Hollywood and warm weather- they were ran terribly for years and were rewarded with lebron James. if that doesn’t show u anything than I don’t know what will.

California weather + Hollywood means they will always be back and get stars....all they needed was 1 guy to put them back on the map, it was bron then ad followed and ad will get them someone else when brons done


Not talking about that though. I'm talking about injury luck. Seems like our luck is just awful compared to theirs. It's so annoying. Even teams like the Warriors.. Those boys had like 4 healthy championship runs before things went to **** last year. I'm pretty sure 2008 was our last healthy playoff run.. :noway:

Doc's gonna give the same advice to Simmons that he did to Rondo - "hey, if they back up off of you and dare you to shoot, use that space to get you a running head start and just drive to the hoop!!" :lol:

I, myself, would have preferred a coach to tell Rondo "Lock your ass in a gym everyday and don't come out until you've hit 10,000 jumpshots"

Very disrespectful to TRo and Mook.

Not too subtle by Lebron but good use of his presser lol.

He had LeBron and also hadn't made his first hundred million. He was definitely talking about flat-earth stuff publicly as early as Feb 2017. Lots of players in the league are just as insane, they just don't yet have the notoriety of Kyrie. Terence Davis, MPJ, both insane humans.

Who knows, maybe the collab-coach heirarchy system will work for KD and Kyrie, two of the softest guys in the league so maybe this will be good for them. Glad I get to watch it without a rooting interest.

Lakers are good for the short term.


AD is in his prime. Lebron is showing no signs on slowly down. I think they will be in the hunt for about 3-5 years at least.


I'd just like to add, it seems like AD has been healthy too for the first time which of course happens on the Lakers and not the Pelicans


AD said LA physical training staff, Judy Seto told him to literally fall on his ass to break his falls and his frame would be injured less. Here we are months later and he hasn’t had all the pelican related injuries he had before trying to land when he was hit. Now years from now his back may kill him but he hasn’t had all the shoulder, leg injuries he used to get from landing funny with his frame.
