Bledsoe is absolutely killing the Bucks. He needs to play through it for them to have any shot at winning the series, but every time he touches the ball it's a lost possession. And now he's talking shit in the locker room about the guy who's been dragging him up and down the floor all week? Good lord.

Why not? They put together a nice winning streak without Irving and Smart and the Bucks are mostly trash and have no coaching.

Also, I support Bledsoe talking shit about Untouchable Terry, even if he hasn't been able to back it up.

I wish I could find the tweet again but it was something like: "The Blazers just have to face their biggest hurdle to winning a game: A lead in the fourth quarter"

I'm referring to the potential Klay for Love trade that the Warriors decided to turn down even though many considered it a slam dunk trade. I'm not sure it would be smart to move off of Tatum/Brown at this point even for a Kawhi.

Talking shit without being to back it up seems like something you'd be in to.

They can do both. They still have a bunch of likely lottery picks in the next few years they can trade away. Those will hold a ton of value to playoffs teams with disgruntled superstars.

They'll probably just re-sign Marcus Smart.

The Celtics are going to need a superstar player either through draft or getting someone like Kawhi somehow. Irving isn't going to be reliable. Maybe Tatum can develop into the go to guy in a few years.

They likely will and to a reasonable deal too since so few teams will have cap space this summer for a bench PG.

I just realized the reason Bledsoe is pissed is not because the third string point guard for the Celtics is lighting him up its because Rozier accidentally called him Drew Bledsoe in an interview. This is the guy GM LeBron was upset the Cavs couldn't land.

When you realize that the third string point guard for the Celtics is better than anyone on the team you root for you tend to get bitter.

Same agent as GM LeBron or something. Just like Girls name Thompson.

I should slap you in the face with Laurie Markkanan's giant Finnish penis for saying that.

Untouchable Terry isn't third string. He's better than Marcus fucking Smart. Not to mention Irving will probably never play a full season without injury.
