Jon Elmore has the Pedroia-esque hairline. Dude will be bald by time he's 30.

Love listening to Brad. I don’t need to see Brad.

I think of ESPN as a terrorist hostage taking organization.

It doesn't matter at all, but I think Grant will be pissed if we lose, and I don't want him mad.

Edwards can bully his way to the basket. He is built like a tank.

Loving the new eurofoul rule. No review, everyone knows what it was, just give the free throw and move on.

At some point don’t the leagues have to tell ESPN to do a better job? They’re a joke organization.

LOL. Tacko gets inside position, Grant lobs it over top. Catch. Dunk.

He kept the ball high. Nicely done.

Grant waves Tacko down to the front of the net, lobs it in, and Tacko stuffs. G Williams recognized the mismatch immediately.

Now, that guy just scored on Tacko, but Tacko slid well left and right. Guy just threw in a hook over him.

Did he have the arson nickname in college or did you guys just recently come up with it?
As far as I know, it was in here. But maybe Purdue people thought of it too, and we just don't talk to them.

It came about here. All the heat based discussion of him I’ve seen before involved a microwave.

I know it's early. But I'd be cool with injecting this year's Celts rookie class into my veins, thanks.

One last time, for good measure.


ESPN sucks. The NBAtv broadcast was how it should always be done.

When Edwards, Waters, and Williams want to close out a win, they put it on the other team.

All three of these draft picks have skills, competitiveness, and understanding of winning basketball.

Edwards may have trouble on the defensive end in the regular season,, but he's a bucket getter with a scorer's mentality. Grant Williams is a glue guy with great fundamentals, and he also have a great understanding of the game. Waters is a true PG who can set the table for others, and get his shot off.

Edwards sounds like he was drafted by the Patriots - going to be a player in the league. Time to get on the bandwagon - none of this it’s summer league, he’s only 6’1” etc....
