    Maybe the Celtics can break the tie with the Lakers for most championships. That should make all of you Lakers haters happy and give you something to root for.

    Jimmy Buckets has almost been bucketless the last 3 games. 3-8, 3-14, and tonight 4-18. Granted he does other things that help his team, but he really needs to be their 3rd scorer, not their top scorer.

    My pep talk about the Celtics pulling in front of the Lakers for most championships all time didn't stoke your Laker hate enough to root for Boston?

    It's combination Laker/Warriors hate that needs to come to the surface.

    I'm too old to be stoked...except by pharmaceuticals. I detest Celtics and Lakers just about equally. Don't give a shit about their legacies. Warriors are up there now. Guess I hate winners....I don't think about what that makes me

    My wife has not interest at all in sports...none. Back in the 80's one time I was watching the Celtics play in the finals. On TV there was a moment when Bird, McHale, Parish, and Dennis Johnson were standing side-by-side. My wife walked by in that moment, looked at the TV and said "when did the Munsters start as basketball team?". To this day I still think of the Munsters whenever I see the Celtics

    one thing about the Celtics though: Danny Ainge built two completely different teams. One team built by sending out young assets and draft picks for veterans; it won a championship. The other team is a young team with amazing upside built by sending out veterans for draft picks and young assets; it's one win away from the NBA finals.

    Celtics will beat the Warriors. They have enough perimeter defenders to make it happen

    Size gives the Warriors fits. Williams might have some huge games as well.

    We really do need to do something about mental health in this country.

    Lakers would love to trade Russ but nobody wants him.

    I don't know the context of your post, if you're agreeing with me or not but I just don't think that it's fair to beat cops to ask them to approach so many incredibly different situations in so many different ways, many of which contradict the other approaches they would have to take for other situations.

    I wonder if he knows his team is out of the playoffs? Better late than Oden.

    Unfortunately, the list of teams that prefer not to trade for him, covers the rest of the league.
