    I mean, really, god bless the Falcons.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Jrue is also the 5th option on offense now (vs 2 or 3 when he was younger) so he should, presumably, be able to expend a ton of energy on defense and really be a difference maker there.

    Put Your Exasperated Guy Takes Here

    Yup. Biggest thing watching those highlights that the Heat were simply patient. They had a plan and executed it, made a lot of good passing decisions, and exploited the Celtics’ inexplicable lack of focus. Like, if this were not a team I despise, I’d be tipping my cap.

    Guy is a total jackass but he’s right on a lot of these points, sadly.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    100% agree. KP should be the story today. I’ll be watching him closely in Game 3. When he’s normal, we win. If he doesn’t perform, hold onto your butts.

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    It is but if a loaded 64 win team loses to an 8 seed without its best player in embarrassing fashion, I think anything is on the table at that point. Would I bet on Joe getting fired? No. But Wyc would be apeshit and who knows what a pissed off owner under pressure to win would do, especially if...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Bingo. Celtics opened the door for shooting variance disaster and the Heat, to their credit, walked right through. If they had shot at their normal rate, I still wouldn’t have loved the defense. But they likely win that game. Bottom line is that you can be both bad AND unlucky. Last night was a...

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    Could also be a smokescreen but, yes, trading down to 6 and picking up their 2nd and 2025 1st in the process could potentially be enticing in a trade down scenario. You’d still get one of MHJ, Nabers, Odunze, Alt, would have an extra 2nd, and a valuable 2025 pick from a team that could easily...

    The Night Before Draftmas 2024 Poll

    He’ll make a lot of money if that happens. DK has Daniels -1000 now.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Firmly disagree but that’s fine. I think this stuff matters in sports and getting over a mental block or opponent that has flummoxed you extends beyond the fans. If the Celtics lose this series, it would be one of the greatest choke jobs ever in NBA history and the Jays will be labeled as...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Whether they want to admit it or not, I think the Heat have owned the Jays’ psyche since the Bam block on Tatum. Even in 2022 when they won, they nearly massive gagged a lead down the stretch and thankfully Jimmy missed. And then Caleb Martin happened last year. And now we had a similar...

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    100%. This was an important game for their psyche and they failed the test pretty badly.

    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    A team with White and Jrue at guard and Jay’s on the wing shouldn’t struggle to contain the 3 point line like they did tonight. So disheartening.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    This is where I am. The talent advantage is so huge that if they just put in normal effort, easy wins. If people want to console themselves with “we’re never going 16-0” or “hey, 2008 Celtics got taken to game 7 by the Hawks”, go ahead. But there are clear warning signs that are present in any...
