just keep racking up the Ws.


Brissett was actually really good on the court last night too. Brought a lot of energy, crashed the boards, swished a 3, and made stuff happen.

He was. I was so excited that crazy looking 3 pointer actually went in! Definitely my binkie of the guys that actually get minutes. If he could hit half his layups and 30% of his 3s even, he'd be a monster.

Overall a good Holiday win (get it??), but nothing too exciting. Always good to sweep a division rival (we use this word very loosely) in back to back years.


Don't tell anyone but my first job when I was a teenager was I worked at a magic store, which was pretty cool, but aside from learning about magic and selling the tricks and whatnot they made me dress up as costumed characters and entertain at kid's birthday parties. And it was the 90s and the most popular character was Barney the freakin Dinosaur. So I was big and purple and sang that "I Love You, You Love Me" song over and over on the weekends until I just couldn't do it anymore lmao.

(And for some reason the families who most often ordered the Barney costume lived in the sketchier parts of town, which added an element of danger to the whole thing lol. I'd get to the location and get out of the car dressed as Barney and have to do a walk of shame to the birthday party while all these tough guy gang member dudes were staring at me like they were hungry for dinosaur.)


So these Toronto games are always personal for you. You 100% should have led with this story in the OP as well. It was more entertaining than the game itself lol.

Unsure if Cs will be able to survive with a defensive lineup like this one for a few postseason possessions, but they seem connected as ever. Look at White and Horford’s activity! And defensive playmaking & decision-making (yes, that’s a thing!) Raps never got to exploit the PP or Luke mismatches for this particular possession. Maybe smarter offensive teams could.

Bis, you don’t have to act like you didn’t want those gang members to eat you up, there is no furries shaming going on in here on my watch!! Tough costume to pick if you want to get busy but I’m not judging, do you boo! Also, purple is my favorite color (screw the lakers), I can’t hate on Barney too much! :lol: :lol:

:lol:

Thanks for the laugh bisme! I had a part time summer job dressing as Oakie the Acorn (Oakhurst Dairy Mascot) at parades and fairs. It wasn't the best... So damn hot in those costumes!

My first job was John’s incredible pizza similar to chuckie cheese but wayyyy bigger. I had to dress up in a bear costume every hour and do like a 1 minute dance in front of like 200 people.

To make matters worse the morning guy was a like hip hop dance coach and would bring the house down. Word would spread and everyone would be excited for the next dance and I would disappoint.

I saw "Oshae Brissett's grandmother once again cooked the Celtics" and at first was like "Oh okay go grandma." :lol:
