Does this mean wyc grew a pair of balls and told him he's over the hill?


It......kind of sounds like it. I’m going to do some investigating, but this is something LBF would have a better read on.

I didn't want to come into this thread and drop " I told ya so's" ....but......

Lebron also has ties to Boston, being a part-owner of the Red Sox.


We can’t hire Lebron because he’s still under contract with the Lakers.

We could hire Rich Paul though. Lol. :wink:

Player movement is going to tell us a lot now.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]
