- Can't see how the Celtics won't demolish them, just hope Giannis doesn't end up in OKC, Spurs, Lakers,
Suns, Denver, Miami... This is the problem with the NBA: these superstars can change teams so freely, they upend
the standing order.

- The PP will flow tonight I think.

- Big Game coming for Baylor: You can smirk all you want...

Yeah. Corrected.
I put the right date, but the wrong day.

Thanks!!!

I originally thought it was Monday, but then saw this and was kinda bummed. It’s cold, I ain’t got **** else to do except watch Jayson Tatum try and blow up 40 pieces.

Celtics going to need to play their best game of the season to date tonight. This game is a measuring stick for the Bucks and they will be ready to play tonight.

My Rule is I don't like the Double Big lineups.. But tonight might be the exception to that Rule. If Hauser does not play then play Queta. Maybe play him anyhow.

Giannis listed as PROBABLE and Middleton listed as OUT. Everyone else is a GO for the Bucks. Sam still QUESTIONABLE. KP OUT.

Makes sense. They've taken the last two games off.

Brad traded one of the Celtics' own picks (2029) for Jrue. That's it. Won one title and possibly more.

Wrong word.

It's only Game #4 so I didn't really wanna say anything but Holiday* has got to look for his shot more especially 'cos Porzingis is still out and we don't have Lonnie Walker.

But then again, the Jays also need to share the ball and limit those hang-on-lemme-get-in-my-bag moments even though Tatum is killing it in iso right now.

Play D. Move the ball. Easy win.

*Cs are paying him $30M, they couldn't spend another $10M for Lonnie.

If he wins 20 more of these this season, he'll be an MVP candidate.

Davison and Watson were added to the injury report as OUT (G-League assignment). Drew Peterson is listed as QUESTIONABLE but was seen in TD Garden working out with Phil Pressey.

Kristaps is a game-time decision, if you believe everything you read here.

Hauser is now OUT. Bummer.

Regarding the surnames of our two-way guys, all of them end with "son".

Davison is the "son of David/Davy."
Peterson is the "son of Peter."
Watson is the "son of Walter/Wat."

Giannis should change his surname to Tatumson so it's easier to pronounce and spell.

He's calling you out, Brad, for not signing another wing.

As I suspected, we’re going double big because Joe doesn’t trust Walsh or Springer. That’s a problem

They'd be even more undefeated if they had him playing though.
