While no one is looking, Horford is quietly two made free throws away from having a 50-40-90 season. Currently the only player (min. 500 mins) with 50-40-89 splits or better.

This will now cause unnecessary friction between him and perennial Teammate of the Year awardee Jrue Holiday. Hopefully doesn't divide the team. NBA trying its best to destroy us.

Hehe... after some internet sleuthing, it looks like part of the theme of their 12th wedding anniversary was the 7 times they moved since they got married.

One day instead of saying "hey Alexa" or "hey Siri" my grandkids will be saying "hey Zoya" to find out the answers to all things Celtics related from AI in their kitchens.

Amongst players currently in the league, here are Playoff Al ranks in some career playoff categories:
2nd in games (with 167, LeBron is first with 282 lol)
3rd in rebounds
3rd in offensive rebounds
3rd in blocks
4th in defensive rebounds
9th in assists

All he does is make winning plays on both ends of the floor when the lights are brightest.

Not the legit kind of 50-40-90 season 'cos he's only taken 28 FTAs so far lol. But still impressive. Very efficient and impactful in whatever role the team has asked of him this season. Celtics are 19-3 whenever Porzingis has missed a game. He's started in most of those.

It does put a different sheen on the "Only 2 FTs away from the stat."

Nice video.

By the way, for those who think he'll win a championship and immediately retire -- that's NOT what he did in college.

Horford and Noah won a championship in college, then stayed in school and won another one.

This isn't as shocking as it might have been had they not both had successful-athlete fathers to cushion the financial risks. But actually -- I doubt Tito Horford made THAT much money either.

Tito hardly made any money at B-Ball. Noah was a legit millionaire.

I believe Mama Noah was also successful -- Swedish pop singer or something like that. I don't know if she made serious money, but it hardly matters, as Papa Noah made a lot.

Al's getting a ring.

Forget the Jays, if DWhite continues to play like this, Cs will beat Denver.
