Ryan McDonough has terrific hindsight. That's all. No more, no less and I doubt this tweet.


I remembered when we hired Stevens he mentioned we weren't the first team to court him. But he couldn't turn down the lore of the Celtics. I thought Phoenix was mentioned specifically but if not I believe it.

JJ Barea gets props from me based on the long list of pageant queens he's smashed. Dude's got game on AND off the court.

Brooklyn pick vs Dallas pick tonight (Suns vs rockets) ...go Suns! (even though rockets are bitches and will probably win just because it's been like that all season when it comes to us needing Houston to do something)

Yeah that report the Celtics had Green in their top three just made me mad. Shut up. No you didn't, otherwise you wouldn't had drafted Fab Melo who played a whopping 6 career games. And you know damn well no one is stepping on Ainge's toes on draft night in that front office.

Lol. I just realized that the Colangelo signing in Philly might help with the future value of those Brooklyn picks. Colangelo is a pretty smooth talker when it comes to recruiting FAs. Here's hoping that Philly can overpay some mediocre players that were destined for the Nets.

SAC resting Cousins and Rondo today...they rested Gay+others game before...with 4 games to go this could mean:

MIN - Cousins/Rondo rest
OKC - others
@PHO - Cousins/Rondo rest ??? :pray: :pray: :pray:
@HOU - others

Hope it will be that way!!!

Btw it went unnoticed yesterday but Portland actually clinched a playoff spot with 43 wins.

Memphis, Utah, Dallas, Houston still fighting for final 3 tickets.

I was just playing. Anyone his size in the NBA has my full respect.

I think Carlisle should get some coach of the year votes. He, (in my opinion), dogged Stevens in both games this year. He finds mismatches and exploits it until you take it away, then he finds another mismatch. He is one hell of a coach.

(I am not from Boston.)

Three games tonight with meaning for Boston (in no particular order of importance): TOR over ATL (fight for 3rd seed in Conf/HCA); CHI over MIA (HCA and possible DAL seeding); PHO over HOU (possible 3rd pre-lotto pick trumps possible DAL elimination from playoffs). MIN at SAC no longer has significance for C's since the TWolves have clinched a better record than the Nets.

Remaining schedule for the western playoff contenders.


Memphis Huge game vs the Mavs, they're 1-2 for the season and a must win, only game where they have a chance to win, the rest is brutal so this is it, a win here gives this pick some hope to be in the lottery.
Image

Dallas absolutely a must lose game for their pick vs Memphis, I cant see them beating @Utah, depend who LAC and SAS puts on the floor, I can still see Spurs bench beating the Mavs but not Clippers bench.
Imagek

Utah huge game tomorrow vs the Clippers, if they win that and the trap game @Denver, they can win the season series 2-1 vs the Mavs.
Image

Houston very easy schedule, 3 home games against the most awful teams, except @Minnesota, but they must winnthe last 4 games.

Houston will lose exactly as many of those games as they need to to fail to catch Dallas, but the Phoenix game won't be one of them.

If they have to, they'll beat the tar out of Phoenix, then shut everyone down and lose all of the rest.

They're on some kind of cosmic, karmic mission to :censored: us.
