And be a trash team like ATL was. He is perfect we’re he is at behind SGA and CP who should retire soon. You should never overpay Schroeder to lead your team at PG. I don’t like his IQ even though he is talented and plays hard

Marcus Smart on a heat check to start the game, but he'll most likely dive after the ball so he ends up not losing it?

Rick Santorum not sure if he should tune in or tune out.

Tyson Chandler with the extremely rare zero minutes played, 0-2 from the FT line. What a beast.

Houston won by 34, but if both teams hit the same amount of threes, OKC wins by 2. lmao Gallo, Dort and SGA 0-16 from 3.

Make it happen.


Next they need to fire Elton Brand and replace him with Vlade Divac.

As much as we play 4 on 5 with Semi sometimes, I'm really glad Mook is no longer a Celtic.

With Mook, not only do you get the occasional 4 on 6 experience, but occasionally you are reminded that he's a fake tough guy who acts like he can school Luka Doncic.

Like Portland, Mavs don't have enough defense-oriented, defensive-minded guys. How can you stop a Clippers team w/ Curry, Burke, and Hardaway on the floor? Luka doesn't defend much either. They've got Kleber, Finney-Smith (who I really like), and MKG (who you can't even play since he's so bad on the other end).

Doc and Clippers should be able to score every time down.

God damn I'm so happy I don't have to watch Marcus Morris on the Celtics anymore. Easily my least favorite player since I don't even know, maybe ever.

It just seems like a matter of time before the eventual LA vs LA showdown out west. Don’t think Houston or Den/Utah stands much of a chance against either squad

Maybe Marcus is still mad at the time he was a free agent and he got screwed thinking he was going to the Spurs, and thought he was getting more money that year. He was never this blatantly mean when he was with us.

When he agreed to go to the Spurs, he agreed to it b/c even though he didn't feel he was getting paid his worth, he felt that he had been screwed by the market. I think this is what Green89 was saying.

Also, I'm not even sure he made more money with the Knicks due to state tax laws (he must have? but I read otherwise somewhere), although it was a one year deal that enabled him to get minutes on a bad team, get publicity in a big market, and seek a new contract the following offseason.

Yah, what he said, that's what I meant. Maybe got it a little twisted. 8-) I knew he wasn't happy about it and don't think he got offers from either the Spurs or Knicks that he thought he might get. I believe he felt he lost out on multi year bigger deals while all the teams were positioning to get bigger names.

I was thinking about too, whether or not Marcus Morris is my least favorite Celtic ever. Ricky Davis was a knucklehead, but at least he was a likable one. Vin Baker maybe?

Seeing how good Mitchell has been off ball has me really excited for his future as a Celtics star.
