Yeah Trae Young isn't even slick about it like Harden.

I'm pretty sure the Nets are just going to get some serviceable big guy for free. They'll still start Jordan though. Can't hurt fee fees.

I keep waiting for Jaylen to come back down to earth but he keeps getting better.

Celtics are supposed to play the Spurs on Weds but they are in the protocol. They are already in Chicago why not play the Bulls again on Weds. They have to do a make up game together anyways. Verb I'll have my people call your people.

LeBron is good.

The Heat are bad.

I don't want to lose again. Garrett and Thaddeus are not up to the challenge.

I think the Hawks might deal John Collins this year. I know they like him but he’s not a max contract player.

A lot of NBA writers are pretty cringey with dick riding and woke takes. Sekou was one of the good ones.

I haven’t seen hardly any live NBA this season but god damn, the last 3-4 minutes of the Warriors just now. Damn. Glad I caught it.

Just posted this in the covid thread about Rob's perception of how new england has done fighting the virus and wanted to make sure bada saw it:

Judging by the complete lack of any black people at Celtics games, and the larger share of the death totals African Americans account for, maybe it's just down to demographics?

I have no idea if New England is doing better or worse with Covid in respect to African Americans and if so why. All I can say is I live in the same state as Rob and our Gov has taken it very seriously. Also while this isn't some sort of excuse for the areas racist past and frankly present I think if you look at most teams crowds its mostly white. I'm not sure you can get a real idea of the demographics of a state based on basketball game attendance due to ticket prices.

All that may be true, but I'm still going to continue with the Celtics crowd are all white thing if it's all the same to you Brad and Danny.
