You know I feel bad saying this since I used to be a big fan of Al and Anna, but Anna really tries to work guys up on twitter at times if you catch my drift.

Like I seen her posting sexy pics and still flirting with Celtics fans and she mentions sex a lot.

And I think her brother is stupid now so whatever.


I've dated more than my fair share of gals that needed social media to justify their existence in life. It's all insecurity. I see a trace of that kind of behavior I run to the hills, ain't playin that game.

Maybe you should try a different route and date boys who don't need cars, money, and "arm candy" to justify their existence in life.

Not trying to dump on her too much. I'm her age basically and a woman too. She's attractive and has been given a platform due to her brothers fame.

However, I kinda just don't dig her style. Or maybe it's just not my style. Then again I'm such a basketball freak for just the basketball at times it's disgusting.

On the plus side her brother is being bashed a lot online (and even booed live) by Philly fans so it might be a way to distract them. She didn't seem too thrilled with the move from Boston to Philly from the get go.

Trae Young shoots 19 FTs, brings him to an average of 9.2 a game. I find that pretty ridiculous. Kemba sitting at 4.5..

Don't think you're dumping on her too much, it's a fair statement. I don't mind her too much but I agree at times she takes things too far considering Al is the one that has to answer for that, although indirectly, but still. You can tell a lot about people in how they choose to express themselves in social media. Some people say that's judgy but hey, they put it out there, it's the nature of the beast.

Notice someone missing?

Embiid has been an issue this year. I get it partially [getting rid of the guys he was closest to and fit him best for a guy who played his position is **** up], but hes gotta grow up too.

I heard through the grapevine that Embiid was the one who took the photo.


Had to be....that’s too long distance for Simmons to shoot from

If it was a fair deal maybe but no deal with getting Embiid would be likely fair.

Going to be an interesting game since the Nets often do blow leads themselves but can the Sixers find enough offense?


With his injury risk, I’d cap my offer at Jaylen+picks/youth. If that's not good enough, oh well.


Thats as far as I would go for an offer too. Whether they win or not, I just have not had a good feeling about Embiid this season at all. Something is off to me at times about that teams chemistry even when they win games. Hordord didn't say what he said about the team having chemistry issues unless something really was happening.


Here is a hot homer take that I'm not even sure I really believe but whatever: Embiid right now is in theory a "better" player than JB right now, but swapping them, straight up, does not make the Celtics a better basketball team now or in the future.

The classic center is an NBA dinosaur, and our "deficiency" at the 5 is vastly overstated and contradicted my almost all metrics. The modern NBA, and particularly the system Brad and Danny seem to want to employ, puts an emphasis on versatility. We currently have that on the roster.

I sometimes hear people say that our wings are expendable, but I totally disagree. Our wing rotation is probably our biggest strength. They create offensive and defensive versatility and interchangeability. When they are clicking, we are almost unguardable.

OFC, a lot of the argument depends on what you think of JB. I think, in terms of Celtics fans, I value him right in the middle. I see him getting close to top 20, and being a multiple time all star at a more valuable position.

Embiid is better at being a traditional center than JB is at being a wing, but which position is more important to our team and the NBA at large?

Embiid demanding the ball in the post IS good offense, but he clogs the lane for drivers and shrinks the floor for his teammates. Theis will happily seal his man in the paint and is just enough of a 3 point threat to command attention behind the line.

The caveat is that, in the future, we could in theory build a team around Embiid and JT that was more suited to Embiid's strengths, and sure, that team could be dangerous. But again, is building around a traditional center better than building around a group of talented, all-star level wings?

I repeat that this is a hot homer take and is open to derision. And as somebody said, MB i think, I would quickly talk myself into being an Embiid fan if he were in Boston, and i agree that the city would love him.

That's pretty awesome, good for Al. Find a girl who loves you like Anna love Al. Bonus points for offending old nerds on the internet.

Also Memphis lost, finally the Kings do something good for the Celtics.

I chub up a little every time Theis seals his man in the lane so someone else gets an easy layup, but im classy enough that I keep it between me and my Celtics Erection Journal.

I don't really care what the kids do on the twitter, but i dont really check it that often, unless its something celtics related that zoya posted here.

I, like you, viewed her tweet favorably. I'm surprised at the negative reaction it got.

**** excuse me?

So retired Mods are free to violate Real GM TOS. Go for it, jack.

I am indeed ‘mature’ & very academically nerdy (& **** proud of it), but my T is very much intact.

My reaction probably relates to having 2 daughters in her age range. She can stand by her **** BROTHER, & not broadcast her genital satisfaction count.
