    Pats OTA Notes & Discussion

    Yeah that's a remarkably reasonable take from Bedard these days and completely believable.

    The Celtics Offseason

    I agree with the bolded. It would be concerning to anyone associated with the team to find out that it was being run by reactionary morons.

    Clearly he isn't invested enough to listen to the geniuses on the radio. Check out the big brain on Brad.

    Celtics vs Heat ECF Redux Discussion Thread

    Even for SoSH, this conversation is dorky. Like "chess club kids mocking you" dorky.

    Not sure, man. Based on some of the posts in MBPC this week, I think that you give us too much credit.

    The summer chopping block: who do you want gone and why?

    Bad timing for Grant. He's got a good year/bad year thing going like Josh Beckett. Funny thing is that he was having a good year, but the wheels fell off literally. I love what he brings when he's on, but you can't overpay for those guys. Especially now.

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    Perhaps I'm reading too much into the bolded when you're really talking about the underlined part. I agree that he doesn't do the type of stuff implied in the underlined. He's not a great playmaker for others. His assist%, which increased after his first few years markedly, has stabilized in...

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    Yeah it was and is nonsense. Guys like Tatum basically fit with anyone except someone who is ball-dominant to a fault like Doncic, Lillard, younger Harden. Jaylen is a secondary scorer, and every team loves having guys like that. They work fine together. Last year the nonsense vibe was that...

    Marcelo Mayer, and his gorgeous hair, drafted by Sox / 4 Overall

    He was one of my binkies. Was so physically imposing for his age. Injuries did him in though.

    The summer chopping block: who do you want gone and why?

    Yeah. I also do not get the people who just want Smart and Brown gone. Finding talent in this league is fucking hard. Here's the five guys above and below Brown for turnover% this year: Batum, McCollum, Jamal Murray, Hield, Jalen Green, Jarrett Allen, Randle, Caleb Martin, Lebron, Franz...

    The Celtics Offseason

    Don't quite get the "blow it up" perspective, but venting is understandable. Both Brown and Tatum have an average season of "Eastern Conference Finalist". Aside from the abysmal 2021 season and last year's finals, it has been what they do. We want progress and championships of course, but...

    Yeah but Dominguez is in the Yankee system and Abbey is contractually obligated to remind us of him.

    I'm going to worry about game 6 and not anything beyond that. Lfg.

    Off-day Sacrilegious Poll: Who would you trade Tatum for?

    Yeah ignoring either poor defense or poor offensive inefficiency has been a thing for a million years. Like there's a cave drawing somewhere of a guy who went for 40 rocks and 5 sticks but didn't cover his man, who carried his team to victory with only 28 rocks but stellar defense.

    Celtics vs Heat ECF Redux Discussion Thread

    I'd argue that Pritchard isn't that guy either. He put up some assists in college, but he has done nothing in the NBA to indicate that he can pass the ball with any impact. A 15.9% career assist rate. He can handle the shit out of the ball and press pace though, so there might be some utility...

    Ah got you. There's probably something to that. I think that the Cs deserve a bunch of credit for turning up the heat though (and perhaps muttered curses for not doing that in games 1 through 3).

    Is it just being undisciplined though if 13 of the 16 turnovers were steals? It's not like they were throwing the ball out of bounds, traveling, etc.
