Busy becoming a gambling addict betting on Payton Pritchard rn. Odds say I’ll hit eventually :nod:


I can’t hit on anything so far this season, and that dude hits on that?! FOH.


DraftKings just launched in Maine this week, I think. I threw down $20 on a double-double party parlay (Luka, Vucevic, Ayton and Randle) and cashed out for a cool little $180. Not 50k, but also not bad for the first time being able to actually use the app.

Celtics should sit Tatum & Brown just to make the game more competitive...

damn that kinda sucks. I'm happy it increases our chances of 5-0, but almost feels a bit hollow.

Jayson Tatum is just 16 points away from becoming the 1st player 25 or younger with 10,000 points and 1,000 3PM.

Like everyone, I'm psyched to see this.

I have yet to see anyone say, so I will just for the record: isn't it kind of funny that SAM CASSELL IS OUR GO-TO "POST UP" COACH?
And Sam could do it all, including posting up as a PG, so I'm not saying it's wrong, just maybe indicative of where the league is -- there used to be "big man coaches", after all. Now we have like 30-year-old Amile Jefferson watching and learning how to post up too :lol:

I will now stop shaking my fist at clouds and say KEEP COACHING HIM UP, SAM-I-AM!

It’s just that Sam is Tatum’s personal skill’s coach among other duties

Hoping it's Marley. Either boy or girl. Their first is named Hendrix.

Wait didn’t he move out to the desert? :wink:


PogueMahone moved to the desert.
Marley2Hendrix is still good for a few out-of-the-blue-honestly-lol posts per season.
For posterity, I'll say that if you saw Marley2Hendrix's tribute to humblebum (first of his name) then you've been here for some good times :beer:

JT averaging about 20 PPG against Bridges for their careers. Curious to see what happens here, I’d take an under 30 but this hasn’t historically been a good matchup for him

Lol You want to get blown out? Sure. We’re down 3 starters. Running the Celtics out the gym wouldn’t be hard since you are not clearly aware of the Nets offense this season.

Porzingis, Horford, and Jrue would be plenty to beat whatever's left of your team tonight. :lol:
