    There is a video clip somebody put together where he himself pronounces it 3 different ways in 3 different interviews on draft day.

    Celtics have 13 in a row, remarkable. Tomorrow's game against Warriors is going to be special.

    Five players had over 10 points for Celtics, they did not use anyone from starting lineup for more than 31 minutes, they way they interchange positions is simply amazing. Brown plays at 2 and 3, Tatum plays at 3 and 4, Morris plays at 3 and 4, only Irving and Horford have fixed positions (and in Horford's case he can slide to 4 when Baynes is on too). I seem to remember Brad Stevens said he only sees three positions on the floor and that seems to be exactly the way this team has been built.

    They are on back to back so Warriors will probably beat them but when Hayward is back next season, they are going to be lethal (Brown and Tatum will be even better). They don't really have any way to get Marvin Bagley from the draft unless Lakers are somehow drawn at 1 but he is the last missing piece there. What a team otherwise.

    Yeah, but when your name is Ntilikina, you have NO REASON to ever come to an English-speaking country.

    I don't believe you. That would make you the PhD of this board.

    Nah I doubt it. I think long term only Simmons out of this 76ers team is going to be a proper killer.

    I've just realized that they will get Lakers pick if it's between 2 and 5. This is possible. Bagley or Ayton would be immense.
