I still can't believe the car salesman is looking to start a website. :crazy:

And that board operator should stick to sports. He called Enes Kanter a wackjob earlier today because of his response to being disowned by his family. I asked him if he even knew who Gulen was and he stated he did. Based on his replies, I highly doubt he had enough time to put down his donut and even check. When I grilled him about it, he said that he deleted the tweet, because he doesn't "do politics". :roll:

Wow, Kanter is the **** MAN. **** Erdogan. One of my best friends (essentially my brother) is Turkish so I know a lot about the situation. Gulen isn't the best guy either, but **************************** Erdogan.

My friend has zero interest in basketball, but I somehow was able to get her interested in talking about Paul Pierce. I was telling her about how he was an amazingly skilled player who didn't rely on athleticism to kick butt. And that he had an unstoppable stepback jumper that couldn't be blocked. The thing is, my friend didn't know what a step back jumper is, I spent a good 30 minutes trying to explain what a stepback jumper is to my friend. Eventually, I just dug up a youtube video that showed his patented move.

Watch on YouTube

Her reaction after seeing that video?

"He is so slow".

I figured I share that little story.

Heh, Pierce is like a yellow lab I had growing up that was old from a young age. Cool to see you over here, one of the good Laker fans around

It's all about depth.

IT / (Smart/Rozier)
Bradley / ____ (Player who can create their own shot)
Crowder / Brown
Horford / Olynyk / Jerebko
____ / Amir

Fill those 2 spots and we will make a run in the East.

Any interest is Matt Bonner? He's from NH, has a bunch of rings with the Spurs and he can shoot the three. I don't know how much he has left, but if I were Ainge I'd be on the phone to Bonner's agent.

Someone once said that puns were the lowest form of humor and now I understand why.

Random, but yesterday in Chinatown I saw a 70+ y/o asian guy rocking a Peja Stojackovic New Orleans Hornets throwback jersey.

Kind of a cool experience.

Jason Terry looks like he'll sign with Milwaukee.

It seems like the Vets have really been embracing Gerald. It's nice to see. I am not sure what kind of a role he will have. But when we need a shooter, I am glad we won't have to rely on Hunter or Young.
