    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Exactly. I’m not saying that Spo called a code red. But Martin appeared to be borrowing from Draymond’s game 2 playbook to try to rattle the Celtics with increased and unpredictable physicality.

    I think you mean the carmines.

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    Kavadas also offers no positional versatility, which might tie Cora's hands some with pinch hitting and shifting guys around the infield. At least we know Dalbec can handle the position defensively and we can hope that the team continues winning behinds its pitching and enough offense from other...

    Casas to IL with left rib strain. Tyler Heineman is up

    Dalbec can defend 3B and 1B adequately and would be fine backing up either and/or both spots. The problem is that reserves are already manning every other infield position and one in the outfield. Fortunately, we’re winning.

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    Because Tatum or Brown don’t want to get suspended and derail a series that the C’s should otherwise win? Like Robinson mixing it up with Jaylen during the regular season, this tactic is the kind of thing a less talented player or team tries to do to shift the dynamic in a game or season.

    That’s it. Anyone who has played knows that move gets you punched.

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    This team is fucking around right now. They’re going to try to win the game first by making shots, but they look like they believe they can put together four minutes and end this thing whenever they want.

    2024 Mock Drafts are more fun than this boring, awful Patriots Team

    Sure, but are their big similarities more important than their big difference? I‘m not sure that the phrase “don’t like” is particularly useful, as it suggests a binary of like/don‘t like and presumes that they “like” these OL prospects, but yes, my position in your scenario is that they...

    Do you attribute their success to lateral movement and agility?

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Outside of injury, foul trouble, or blowouts, I’d be surprised to see Tillman get much run in this series.

    2024 Mock Drafts are more fun than this boring, awful Patriots Team

    While I understand that might be your preference, is it the Pats’ when it comes to centers? Thinking back to players like Koppen, Stork, and even David Andrews, it seems to me that the team favors intelligence, toughness, and technique from that position. Could Jake follow in that tradition of...

    Have we given up on the other Andrews as the developmental C from last year’s draft?

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    The key to KP is that he keeps Bam from doing Bam things as he is the only one with the size to match up with him. He has to focus on that assignment rather than playing team defense.

    If the Pats pass on QB and draft two interior offensive linemen in the first 68 picks, I will break something.
