    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    He’s rightfully calling out Domi’s bullshit. Which is exactly what most here want him to do, especially as Keefe is going full Berube.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    May have also figured that KP would figure things out in the 2nd half, which has happened during the regular season. Just didn't happen last night; KP regressed from bad to awful in the 2nd half.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    Yes, if the Celtics were to lose this series, everything would be on the table this offseason. Wyc is not writing those checks to watch 8 other teams play NBA basketball May and June and listen to people chalk it up to shooting variance and sub-optimal matchups. But it's still too much of a...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Not a betting person, but I do think the Celtics are likely to win both in Miami, albeit closer than we would like. I do think the chance of a blowout win in Miami in at least one of the games is non-zero, in particular G4, as the talent gap tends to show itself as a series progresses.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    A 7 game series against a Miami team without Butler is a disaster. For one, there is no guarantee that a Game 7 outcome will be positive. An untimely sprained ankle coupled with shooting variance means a humiliating first round exit, which would basically mean the entire season is an utter...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    I don't think that's fair, if you're basing it on last night. He made some nice passes, set Jaylen Brown up for a wide open 3. I do think his defense was subpar last night, except for the team's brief flurry late in the 2nd quarter.

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    It would have been interesting to have seen the conversations in the front office in 2001, when Belichick selected Richard Seymour with the 6th pick (highest selection BB ever made), when the media consensus was that the Pats should select a WR. And the second guessing would have been brutal...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Denver will indeed be a nightmare matchup for this Celtics team, and that was true even before tonight's abomination. But seems premature to worry about it, given the Celtics' magic number to even get to the Finals remains at 11.

    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    Inexcusable loss. No effort on defense, and no response when things got difficult. If it's the only game this series that's like this, fine. Otherwise, they may survive the series but will certainly fall short again as Miami writes the book on how to handle this Celtics team.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Hard to blame Montgomery; he got a lot out of an out manned roster all season. The team went all in last season, and failed to get out of the first round.

    The Krafts

    I recall several years ago, there was an excerpt of an interview with Jonathan Kraft, where he was asked if Bill had final say on all football personnel decisions. Jonathan responded by saying "Bill has final say on most decisions", with an emphasis on most. But he did not elaborate further...

    Round 1, Game 2 -- Toronto @ Boston

    Weak showing, let Toronto get their way on offense. We'll see if they can recover in Game 3.

    The Krafts

    Keep in mind that Eliot Wolf is not formally listed as GM. He is still listed as Director of Scouting, and Matt Groh is still listed as Director of Player Personnel. Meanwhile, the "Front Office" link at patriots.com lists only the Krafts...

    The Krafts

    What we are missing from the media reports is the symptoms vs the root cause? Did the Krafts decide at one point they needed to have more input into football decisions, and that caused the relationship with Bill to sour? Or did the working relationship get to a point that the questioning of...
