    The Celtics Offseason

    Is Danilo Gallinari better than Grant Williams? He clearly can't guard smaller guys or even bigger faster guys, but Grant wasn't really that awesome at that either. That alone seems like it could be an easily attainable upgrade?

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

    This post is good info. I agree, having Marcus is really helpful to the overall scheme it seems. Having all three of Smart, Brogdan, and Derrick allows them to change up as needed and play to all three of their strength. I don't think they want to go away from that. Is Reeves legit and not...

    The Celtics Offseason

    All the talk about the new CBA rules affecting the Celtics are interesting and certainly complicated, but I just looked at the rosters and contract status of the Nuggets, Heat, Lakers, Bucks, Sixers, etc and essentially every team has the same problem and will have very difficult decisions to...

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

    I voted only Grant. His position is the one that most needs upgrading (with either a 3rd real big, or reliable 3 and D guy), and I think the rest, with more time, can get to a point to take them over the top.

    The Celtics Offseason

    I went to 12 games at the Garden, took my daughter to her first two games, watched just about every minute of every other game, and got an enormous amount of entertainment out of this team. Congrats to them on a great season and I look forward to next year! They should run it mostly back, get...

    Celtics vs Heat ECF Redux Discussion Thread

    Despite handwringing about Highsmith making some shots, that video highlights that he was horrific on the defensive end, as was Duncan Robinson and Zeller. We definitely have more depth at this point, and just need to keep trying to run them off the floor - the more they have to play those guys...

    Celtics vs Heat ECF Redux Discussion Thread

    This tracks with what I was seeing as well. Is Jaylen sick or something? He was a step or two slow on almost every single play of the game and was totally blowing it on both sides of the floor. Marcus had some good stretches at least, and just wasn't out there as much. Jaylen really cost us the...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top: The Man is Non-stop

    It doesn't even matter. He is right, and it is one of the qualities that does make him one of the best of the best. We were all at home or in the stands shitting all over ourselves while those guys were out there knowing what they can do and keeping their cool when things weren't going exactly...

    Celtics vs 76ers, Round 2 Discussion

    Yes, Horford and White hitting ANY 3's is the key. JB was also horrific on defense for the whole game. He just had a really bad overall game and he needs to be much better or they are toast. I will say I was wildly disappointed after the game last night, but coming in the Cellar always...

    Celtics vs 76ers, Round 2 Discussion

    Yeah, I think what it should show them is that their depth is an enormous strength, and they should continue to be super physical on both sides of the court, and not be afraid of fouls. Seems to me a lot of the success of the Warriors and Heat is they are handsy all of the time and are not...

    Celtics vs 76ers, Round 2 Discussion

    Live I was really hoping one of the cheerleading squad smashed it out of the air during the T-Shirt Toss. Actually, they should make that part of the festivities, really ramp it up a notch.

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    Yes, I was there last night too and I agree on these points especially. I was seated just about the free throw line and the Harden Zapruder-shots and the Embiid flop were insanely egregious. The refs were atrocious. The drone was also very noticeable and distracting, but not as awful as the...

    POLL: Skiers of SoSH Locations

    Icecoast here as well (from Boston). Been an Ikon pass fam for the last couple years, so mostly did Loon/Sunday River/Sugarbush, but also trips to Aspen/Snowmass last two years. Next year going to Big Sky, which I am super psyched for. My 5 and 8 yo are progressing well, so that will hopefully...

    2023 NBA Playoffs

    Yes, and Gabe Vincent both made the 3 that enabled Jimmy Butler's miraculous tying shot AND made an absolute perfect pass to again enable Jimmy's shot. GABE VINCENT! But still, the Bucks choked so so bad.

    2023 NBA Playoffs

    I just watched the 4th quarter and on top of it all, the refs were desperately trying to save the Bucks, and they still blew it. Incredible.

    Celtics vs Hawks, Round 1 Discussion

    I had to go back and look at 2008 Celtics v. Hawks. #1 v. #8, the C's looked even worse in that series. And it turned out just fine. It was a stupid loss, but it still took a ridiculous, low percentage shot from Trae to win it with 2 seconds left. Miracles in the playoffs happen all the time...

    Celtics vs Hawks, Round 1 Discussion

    I didn't think you could outdo yourself, but congratulations. It was an extremely frustrating loss, but it happens. We literally just watched the Bucks do it, and they are in a much much worse position. Win tomorrow and move on.
