Thomas scored 16 points in the last 94 seconds of a playoff game in 1984! WOW!!!

FYI. This is before hand checking was illegal. . .

Thats it. I want Laimbeer as coach. Heck, even take Thomas as GM with Laimbeer as coach.

Seriously, I have to love all of these guys. They're awesome.

I still have to say no to these guys as coaches/GMs. Zeke was a disaster in NY. I don't know if there is any residual animosity, but Laimbeer certainly wouldn't endear us to anyone. I mean, I know that's part of the point, but do we know what kind of offense he'd even run? If it's up to date for the modern NBA? Why risk doing something to throw another legend under the bus?

Why the hell is this being made about the Celtics? Screw the Celtics! Screw Bill Simmons. How the hell did they choose that homer as a host? They better talk about how they all colluded to keep Isaiah out of the Dream team.

I love Bill so much. Players don't have that type of competitiveness anymore.

Laimbeer needs to be a part of this franchise again in some way. He's exactly what this team needs.

Unbelievable. Almost brings tears to my eyes. I remember the struggle to get to that point. It is like reliving it.

Some kids were read stories about chicken little and other nighttime stories. My Dad told me stories about the Bad Boys. Watching this is like reliving my childhood.
