Can I say **** Kyrie one last time, though? I mean **** Kyrie is a fun thing to say. Oh, and hey there's **** Kyrie right in my sig. I wonder if there are other ways to say **** Kyrie that would be fun.

I want my pound of flesh first. That lunatic killed our chances of acquiring AD and forming a legit contender next season. I'll ease up after we pound the Nets and Kyrie decides to skip the next game in Boston.

Yes, he said it was our plan A post draft. At that time we knew Irving and Horford were gone.

He 100% talked AD out of Boston. Would bet anything on it.

AD wanted LA first, but Kyrie poisoned him on Boston for sure.

Can mods ban posters for a week who mention his name in a post? :cheesygrin:

Is there ever a real reason to talk about him in here any more?

No thank you. Jaylen Brown is going to have a big year and if he does the Celtics will have no issues paying him.

He has never proposed a trade that made us better, I don’t get it

Felger making his usual nonsense rants about how Danny should have went after Kawhi, Klay, and Paul George over Kemba. Like we ever had a shot at those three. George wasn't even a free agent, which tells you how much Felger really knows about the sport. No wonder why they quickly switch to some two year old story about Eckersley and Price. They can't sustain a long or substantial talk about the Celtics.

I was going to point this out. CBS doesn't even recognize PF/SF as terms. To him, it's 1 guard, 3 wings and 1 big. Walker/Brown/Tatum/Hayward/Kanter are just that 1 guard, 3 wings and 1 big.

I think Stevens would call Smart, Langford, Semi, and probably Edwards all wings, too. The guards are Walker and Wannamaker and Waters if he makes the squad...maybe Edwards, too. Bigs are Kanter, Porier, Theis, Williams and Williams...although, I think Grant should be developed as a big wing, not a small big. Stus and Fall (if he makes the squad) are wing and big respectively.

Hayward moved full-time to Boston, sold house in San Diego. He used to work out there in the summers.

It appears we're done with offseason personnel movement, barring any unforeseen future opportunities.

Mimi and Maria Horford both commented on Enes' comment regarding #11. Sounds like the Horford family hates Kyrie too, and not just Al. reload is always good money with the info.

No way do they give up their own picks. Miami's though would be ideal

Don't quit RGM/CS, even if! :)

I, personally, think that that lineup will be okay defensively, too. There will be situations where adjustments will need to be made, but in general I think there will be a scheme where those 5 can work defensively and I believe CBS will find that scheme.

Honestly, this makes me really bullish on him going forward. He’s pissed off about last year and trying to do something about it. Happy to see it.

No quitting in basketball unless your name is Kyrie.
