    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    God, these guys are the kings of the late-game f***-around.

    I always loved the Porzingis trade. It was a masterstroke.

    Why is Spo calling a timeout with 30 seconds left and the Heat down 32? Or is this an automatic timeout?

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    Jrue has not had a good game, and the ball's a bit too sticky with Jaylen. Other than that, everyone has had a pretty good game.

    Ha, ha. No answer for that.

    Well, that's about as dominant an opening as you'll ever see.

    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers

    Philly likes to pick up the ball before they know what they want to do with it.

    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers

    It looks like Embiid is actually a combination of gassed and hurt. Plus he looks about 20 lbs. heavier than he should be.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I would also pick the Celtics in five. I can see Miami taking a game on their home court. Three-point variance is a bitch, and in the playoffs in the recent past it seems to favor Miami. If the extremely unlikely happens -- if the Celtics say lose this in seven -- I think that might be the end...

    Sometimes it feels like it's operating on some higher level of groupthink, where everyone is shifting perfectly in unison, like those ant colonies that seem to be perfectly synchronized.

    I still think Chicago stinks tonight, but I'm also wondering if this Miami defense (14 flavors of zone?) might be more effective than we're giving them credit for.

    Man, Chicago really sucks. No way the Heat defense is that good.

    Yeah, that blob zone looks like it could be a problem.

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    Washington takes a timeout with 50 seconds to go, down 12. Huh?

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    Interesting that Kornet no longer takes three-point shots. At all.

    April 14 Regular Season Finale v Bullets: Mike Gorman Sendoff night

    Springer is nasty on defense. I hope the long-term plan is to keep him.

    2023-24 Celtics

    Actually, for anyone frustrated with the Celtics lately, they can be relieved they didn't do what Denver just did last night: punt an 18-point halftime lead to the lowly Spurs, making it all but certain they will now drop to #2 (or #3) in the West from an assured #1 if they had just won their...

    2023-24 Celtics

    I really enjoyed watching the first half of last night's game -- I almost didn't, because the half-hearted effort in the two previous games left me kind of sour on the end of the season. I would've enjoyed last night's game if they had lost by 20. They were all connected, hustling, having fun...
