I was in Boston the last two days and the Celtic fans I spoke with (Over 20) believe they'll compete and not tank.

All of them think losing KP will be an issue.

We also discussed the TD Garden and several of the people I spoke with said they expect the new ownership to eventually build a new arena. Some undecided and nobody said no. These individuals work at the arena and the IATSE union.

Latvian center Kristaps Porzingis, now the centerpiece of the Hawks, spoke to the media about Latvia’s upcoming clashes against Turkey and Serbia. In particular, he highlighted Alperen Sengun and Nikola Jokic as key challenges while stressing the importance of these early games in the group stage.

“Jokic… This guy is probably No. 1 in the world. This is my opinion. It’s going to be a tough, tough challenge for us. We still have Turkey and Estonia first, and then Serbia. We have a little bit of time. We aren’t focused on Serbia yet, but we’re going to have our hands full,” Porzingis said when asked about facing Jokic and Serbia.

KP is definitely in full effect for a career year in a contract season.

We'll benefit for a year, but I suspect he'll price himself out of Atlanta moving forward.
