    Team USA 2024

    Yeah, I am pretty sure that awhile ago I read that Holiday was one of the locks for the team based on the 2021 performance.

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    And they were 6-4 headed into Thanksgiving in the first of those years.

    2023-24 Celtics

    That stat about them going 8-0 with three or more of the big 6 out…I think he is as deserving of Coach of The Year as anyone.

    Who are you rooting for in the Play In Games?

    Years ago I tried to appease LondonSox by saying something to the effect of, oh this latest iteration of the C's/Sixers rivalry is going to last awhile and be hard fought and each team is going to beat the other in the playoffs at some point. In the spirit of that lie, I'd sort of like the...

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

    I am perplexed by mocks where someone trades out of three - which implies that you have no particular faith in whatever QB is sitting at three, and you’re pretty sure you can get a surer talent at another position a bit lower - and then goes ahead and picks the QB a lower anyway after it turns...

    Lakers should probably tank both just to be safe.

    Sotheby's auctioned off NBA All-Star Game uniforms this week. LeBron at $139,700. Then (between ($30K and $41K) Edwards, Curry, SGA and Doncic. Banchero, Giannis, Tatum, Lillard, Brunson all between 20-25K. Everyone else less...Jokic 16K, Brown 10K,...Abedayo 1397... It can't be a coincidence...

    So Lakers win today and the 8/7 play-in and then get the Nuggets?

    Yeah. This is exactly the thing. Take out the trash in the first round and then take care of business in the second round and then see who has managed to crawl into the ECF. and ruin their hopes and dreams This is our spring schedule.

    No Embiid in a game to avoid the play-in? How hurt is he?

    That’s the one posted above that was not correct eg: “Orlando Magic: No. 5 seed with win over Bucks combined with loss by Pacers to Hawks,” “Philadelphia 76ers: No. 5 seed with win over Nets combined with loss by Pacers to Hawks.”

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    The hype train does funny things with quarterbacks. Speeds up, derails. Remember that week after the Texas game when, in many eyes, Penix was a top four draft pick?

    Playoff Fear Factor: Which EC team is your top concern?

    According to that tweet none of the 5-8 teams clinches the 5 seed simply by winning their game. Edit-though it says Magic is 5 seed if they beat Bucks and Pacers lose to Hawks, then later says 76ers are 5 seed if they beat Nets and Pacers lose to Hawks. So something is off. Am I reading...

    Doubt anyone is playing for Dallas on Sunday, though. Unless Luka wants to go for 80.

    How's Boras Doing This Off-Season?

    It seemed like Boras was trying get Snell signed before focusing on Boras. Maybe I have that all wrong but I could see Montgomery being pissed if that was the strategy. edit-i meant “ before focusing on JM “ of course

    Tatum or Ant?

    I’d pick Luka if I were building a Globetrotters type barnstorming team.

    Tatum or Ant?

    All this. Exactly. Embiid is great when he’s great. But look at his track record on health and his playoff success. Anyone who would take 2024-25 Embiid over 2024-25 Tatum is an idiot. And this Celtic team dominated the regular season and was completely and specifically built around Tatum. Now...
