Not a fan of that trade from a Celtic perspective, Close Talker. I don’t like Faried as the principal return, or three years $15 million of Andre Miller.

Interesting battle going on between basketball and baseball – which sport can have the most hilariously awful color commentators.

Well, Tommy Heinsohn is about as good as it gets. Jerry Remy, on the other hand, is horrible. So basketball wins the Boston market

Not familiar with King, but I’m with TBL on that specific Boozer call

Somebody tell me if this makes sense:

IMO, it could help the Celtics. Miller is a solid ball-distributor. Faried would excite the TD Garden crowd with his effort, but he is somewhat limited offensively (other than put-backs and dunks on the fast break).

If the Nuggets acquired Garnett, he’d probably drop dead of a coronary at Pepsi Center if he played a home back-to-back.

Philadelphia 100, Memphis 103:
The backwards box score. Best thing about Ballin’

I suspect the EIC don’t like my Grizzlies very much.

Actually, Marc Gasol’s block on a Nick Young 3 attempt (seriously) was clutch. Gasol has been blocking a few shots lately, and that has helped the defense a bit more.

I bet you’re sick of Stacey King, right? After he went with the Booze Cruise line, he used that Facebook crap again. Ugh.

You’re kind of being a huge dick for no apparent reason.

Anyway, the Bobcats fell to 11-33 and are about to be the worst team in the NBA (again).

We can now just discuss who the 2nd-worst team in the NBA is. We all know the Bobcats are heinous. Retire the belt.

Isn’t he statistically the worst player ever this year?

Only because Jack Haley didn’t see the floor often enough

He should quit idolizing Gus Johnson.

I would enjoy it if you referred the Sixers as “my Sixers” as frequently as your refer to the Warriors as “my Warriors.”

“Get on the Booze Cruise”

Vin Scully wishes he could come up with material like that

Jimmy Butler continues to impress…sadly I can’t make a Deng-for-Pau trade that works and makes sense, might need to put YYSA on the case

Not sure why, but TBL hates him some Stacey King. Guy is doing a local broadcast. On a national stage his shtick would be inappropriate, but I think it’s fine.

0-0, 0 points, 0 assists.

Okay they didn’t have a game but it wouldn’t have impacted his numbers that much.
