bout damn time

Ime appears to have taken a step forward over the past week as a coach.
Needs to take another 4 or 5 steps forward, but he is at least moving in the right direction.


when I was 14 years old, my father sent me to an expensive and exclusive tennis camp. I came out of it with the "most improved award".. Mainly because I was near bottom when I got there. Everyone was like a semi pro. I was a beginner. Only one direction I could go was up since I was at the bottom. When I left, I was still near bottom. :(

there was some good news.. It helped launch my love and life in basketball.

As far as this game goes. I have always felt Schroder is a terrible fit for Boston. For the most part it has become true. But there are exceptions. When Schro starts and plays a lot (minus Smart) he gets into a better grove while acting like he wants to be there. Any other situation he is so bad. I am praying Schro plays so well that we can actually use him in a trade.

Flip side I am already growing sick at the idea that PP might be held to 10 min more or less.

Embiid has scored 30+ in 10 of 11 games, and he has scored EXACTLY 31 points in each of his last 5 games.

Honestly one of the best ways to defend him is just try and force turnovers on his post ups. Al and Rob have to hold up long enough for the help to get there.

Unless I'm completely tripping this game was supposed to be on ESPN but they bumped it off and replaced it with Warriors-Bulls.

Smart has COVID, again???
How many times can you catch this thing???

Caution and Precaution.


After the first 3 times a friend (who I never see) stopped testing, he thinks he's had it again. I haven't seen the test results so he could be lying, but he swears he's had it those three times for sure.

I didn't know it was possible but if it is... damn.

Contain Embiid and we win. (Are you listening, Big Al?). Catch the end of this one maybe or replay. Sometimes I have a life beyond the Celtics, but not often.

I don't think the Celtics will have enough players to play this game tonight against Philly. I think 80% of the Celtics roster was traded in the trade thread today.
