NBA.com article with their writers making All NBA picks.

Everyone has the same 1st team: Jokic, Giannis, Luka, SGA, Tatum.

Only 1 of them has another Celtic making it: Shaun Powell has JB on his 3rd team.

Anyway... here's the article if you want to check out their picks.

The Sixers officially had Joel listed as out tonight as of like 5 minutes ago but now it looks like he's playing. I didn't even know you could do that an hour before the game.

No Jrue Holiday this year.

Better get ready for a team that's having a top 10ish regular season of all time to be completely shut out of the end of season awards.

Won’t stop the “Super Team Fumbled” narrative if the team doesn’t win it all.

I'd be worried if this Super Team is like that 2008 Celtics where the star players were all in their 30s.

This current Celtics team has a bigger window.

I think Brad is hands down the EotY. That's a catch-all award for the media. We likely get White in an All-Defense team and JT in an All-NBA team as well.

You could have given Brad the award as early as September IMO. Just a formality right now.

Miami vs Bucks round 1 would be so sweet.

Philly will make sure they don't end up the #8 seed.

Bucks will most likely lose to Philly in rnd 1.

Here’s a stat that makes me believe in the Bucks even less.
Since that Lakers loss we’ve went 22-4 in our last 26.
The Bucks have went 14-12 in their last 26.

Man Steph Curry hasn't been close on most of his non 3 point shots..

Dallas on a 19 0 run because Curry mainly can't Make anything..

People considering voting Ime for CotY over Mazzulla for trying hard to get into the playin while the Celtics are 12+ games above 2nd place in the East is truly wild stuff.
