Wishful thinking, I know, but I've sold my Xavier Tillman stock and put it into WatsonCoin.

I'm into TradeDeadlineCoin.

Celtics by 50+.

They need to get their **** together. This is the game to do it.

ALERT!!! The odds makers made a big mistake. They thought the game was in Chicago so they had Celtics -14.5. It was supposed to be Bulls -2 in Boston :roll:

We are the defending champs and yet I haven't been "Up" for a game in so long. I will watch like I always do. Maybe I will just turn on just to see how a team with such a HUGE talent advantage can play down to the competition.

Edit.. Looks like I am being persuaded to go :o :-?

What the heck is with Hauser’s hip? Chronic back spasms all year and now “hip impingement?”

Isn’t “hip impingement” what shut Timelord down for 40-50 games right before the Covid bubble?

I dunno what’s hip impingement, but it does not sound good, at all?

It’s fun seeing who which borderline noname it ends up being.

We’ve been doing this for years, nothing new.

Penciling this in as a win since we lost the previous game.

Yeah it's basically the bones in the hip joint don't fit together like they should. Rubbing and causing pain and limiting your ability to move. So it's not great.

If it's not terrible you can do physical therapy and pain meds. If it's very bothersome you need surgery to re-sculpt the bones.

That's why Brad must find an upgrade for Sam.

A guy like Coffey would be a good fit, a better player than Sam, and Joe will play him.

Yikes, sounds like could be somewhat serious or not serious at all, and time will tell. That’s concerning though. Sam’s pretty important for us long term either as a key spacer or to bring back something good in trade as a valuable, playoff tested 3-and-D on a good deal… so this is not good about the hip

If Cs get an early lead, this will be over in the 2nd qtr.

It will be Jaden Springer time the rest of the way.

Trade everyone and build around KP. The rest of these bums don't deserve to share the same court.
