But, way worse


That was 17 years ago. Seems like yesterday we were arguing about it on here with Epi. Time moves way too quickly.

Crazy

Chris Finch isn't getting much flak for the Wolves' struggles but maybe he should be? Despite all the "fit" criticisms, their best-5 (Russell/Edwards/McDaniels/Towns/Gobert) has played the 2nd most minutes of any starting group in the entire league (260) and is a pretty solid +4 net-rating with a 104.2 defensive rating. It's the staggering and bench lineups that they need to figure out.

I remember asking why Haliburton wasn't considered to go way higher. He looked awesome to my untrained eye.

In my mind there's no reason the Ant/Gobert duo can't be at least as successful as Mitchel/Gobert were in Utah.

They just have to make the brave decision to get rid of the Kat/Russel duo, get some shooters and defenders back, unclog the paint and give Ant all the usage he can take. This is Ant's team, they either understand it or they lose him.

Am I over simplifying this?

I never would have predicted this Boston roster would become the GOAT offense and GOAT 3 point shooting team I still don’t get it just based on personnel. Hopefully they cool off at some point but we are a decent chunk into the season and they still just don’t miss.

PJ has scored about 3 points in the last 8 games…

Seemed obvious that his contract was unwarranted.

Tucker is washed. 25+ minutes of nothing tonight. And most nights.

Was Udoka holding the Celtics offense back?

The Celtics are really **** good. I wish I didn’t have to hate them because I really like what they do and I’m almost excited as a basketball fan to see how they look once they get rob williams back. Luckily for us, he and Brogdon are made of paper mache and we’ll probably get to play them missing those two when it really matters.

Started watching this Pacers/Lakers game because sports gambling (I won :D ), ended up being the game of the year.

Oshkosh's own Haliburton is gonna end up being one of the best PG's of all time, calling that now. He's at nearly 40 assists in his last 3 with 0 TO's :o. He reads the game like CP3, imagine when he has some seasoning

Whatever the opposite of Mark Waugh's aesthetic is what goes on when Haliburton uses his arms for anything. Nothing but net - looks like a fluked brick, nailed a pass in a tiny window - random flailing arms leads to lucky assist.

Everything about him is **** ace, none of it *looks* graceful. This is all I have.
