Oh get off your high horse. It's easy to be high and mighty behind a keyboard.

My comment was very clear; I don't know what happened and neither do you because, at be best, we had a vague explanation given to us at the presser and that's it. The players don't even know what happened and they admitted as much. But yes, you certainly have all the answers.

Please let me know this weeks winning lotto numbers.

Yes you are right. I don't know everything that happened. I'm a bit fuzzy on the timeline. Can you remind me when Udoka displayed his "great" leadership qualities ? Was it before, after or while he was sexually harassing other members of the Celtics organization ?


Yea this isn't going anywhere. Take your snark and ego elsewhere, not interested in keyboard warriors who use serious social issues as a shield to defend their sports teams decisions so they can feel better. Takes zero thought and considerstion to trash someone for easy social justice points. He could've (and likely) been rightfully fired, but I don't know what happened, that's literally my entire point. Anything else is you aching to pick a fight. Peace.

I like it, reminds me of my grandparents, their old station wagons. I dunno, feels like a good throwback feeling/memory. :D


Edit: at first i didn’t care for it (didn’t care honestly), but i saw some old pics of the family and its grown on me.

I also kinda like the courts. Maybe not permanently but I'd rather new courts each year rather than endless new jerseys.

Apparently the Mavs will be playing on their normal court tonight because of a "manufacturing issue."

I like our court and most of them honestly. Kind of distracting at first just because they are different, but they look cool for the most part I think.

Nets already won a Tournament game last week and are one of a few teams at 1-0 in group play. So obviously we need to put an end to that.

Al Horford is 17/72 (23.6%) from beyond the arc since this happened...

One of the writers (Karalis or Keith Smith, I think) said it's not reviewable because it wasn't actually a call that was made. It's not like they called him out of bounds and then could review if that call was correct or not.

But then again, I'm not sure if that adds up. Because what if there was a buzzer-beater, the shot goes in, no call (out of bounds, foul or whatever) is technically made. But they're still gonna probably review it to verify that the shot went in before the buzzer, right?


My guess is the difference would be in that buzzer beater example a call would be made of a good basket or not so that could be reviewed. It’s nitpicking imo bc a no call on Embiid is basically a call of in-bounds/play-on.

Kinda dumb posting Al Horford early season stats in a game he's missing but what the heck...

Opponents are shooting 25% (3/12) against Horford in isolation plays. He's allowing 0.53 points per possesion (15 possessions so far). Good for 90.9 percentile.

That was only thing I didn’t like about the court… no parquet anywhere. Since the asked and got denied I’m good with it. Not that they needed my approval anyways.

I just don’t like how shiny and reflective they are on the full colored sections. The Bulls court in particular was a mirror.

Some decent values on odds for some of these teams in the tournament. Don’t think Boston or Denver takes it
