    3/18 - Pistons @ Cs.

    It really illustrates how tough the NBA is. Tillman, in particular does so many great things but he can be unplayable with certain lineups and against certain teams given his busted shot.

    Do we need a Celtics Announcing thread?

    Drew's level of preparation seems pretty remarkable for regular season NBA match ups but its his steez that makes it all work. He's quick witted and his references feel on point. I am assuming the Cs are renting but not buying with Drew. The gang at Bristol, amongst others, probably have...

    3/18 - Pistons @ Cs.

    This feels like a contest that will be in hand early. Now watch it be a tight one.

    2023-2024 General NBA Season Thread

    Its hilarious. Only the most control freaky would have a problem with it.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    I would love to see an analysis of Mazzulla's "slow to react" issue and what its actually cost the team. I sense you are arguing that its not cost them yet but will going forward. This is the problem with the Mazzulla criticism - its an argument that the Celtics are winning inefficiently some...

    3/17 Cs @ Wizards

    White and Porzingis are out so that means this may not be easy given how the last contest went. Stay winning.

    If you don't love DJ Burns I don't know what to say. He is a problem for Carolina on both ends.

    Poor kid just may have lost Kent State the MAC championship by brain farting and fouling while up one with 6.2 seconds left. Ugh

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    I am not a hoops coach so I cannot speak to your critique of Mazzulla but I would at least consider that he purposely didn't employ a high pick and roll during a regular season match up that doesn't really mean anything. Why put it on tape against a possible finals match up now? Also, the...

    Do You Want John Henry To Sell The Red Sox?

    Also, the question isn't will or should they sell. Its asking what we want. And apparently we want more of the same, pretty overwhelmingly thus far.

    Do You Want John Henry To Sell The Red Sox?

    The Sox could definitely do worse with different owners. People have highlighted that risk. But - and I know this sounds crazy but please stay with me - what if they are better? Like what if the acquirer is ok taking risks and spending money to try to win. I know full well money guarantees...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Its clearly not the documentary that you or many others here would make. I will watch the hell out of yours and will almost certainly hype it here. But this is the Dynasty we got. I will be rewatching this a bunch. I need episode eight on my eyelids.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Its outstanding, but not perfect unless you think BB needs someone to interpret his words as well as choices. Its does a very good job of touching on a lot - but not all - of the events that shaped the dynasty and its made with overall admiration for what all of the people involved...

    I want it made into a feature film. The feel-good movie of the year!

    2023-24 Celtics

    Grayson Allen feels like a body-of-work player much like, say Draymond or CP3 or Beverley or Brooks. Its not hard to see how players might react to seemingly innocuous acts from these types because everyone knows its a matter of time before they try some actual BS. The people on the court are...

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    I haven't seen a lot of his pressers and I was unfamiliar with the shot blocking thing so thank you for sharing. That said if Joe really cared about improving on his 109-39 record coaching in the National Basketball Association, he doesn't have to go to the trouble of watching other coaches...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I have the exact opposite reaction as some of you. The player segments overall - and particularly from the likes of Slater as well as McCourty - were fairly damning of Bill. That isn't hit-piece stuff - it features quotes directly from respected veterans. I loved the music choices in this...

    Shaka Smart is aptly named. He just won his team a big game with two nifty ATO plays Edit: whoops no basket on the last play.
