Update, Boston too hurt to play? I think they are waving the white flag on this one already.

Lame. The NBA really has to put a stop to shit like this. A nationally televised game of backups.

[Coach]

My goodness, I remember this. Larry Legend plays half the game lefthanded for fun.

Interim tag removed from Mazzula’s title. I guess top brass loved that load management move against the Bucks this week.

Tatum and Brown are basically the coaches - the organization is handling those two with care as they are sensitive.

We call that the Kyrie and KD model.

Yeah, the so called player's coach

Recently read this - it was an easy, fun read. The NBA (indeed the whole world) was very different back then.



Here's one of my absolute favourite bits:

There was no quarreling with the math of "splitting" seven games. K.C. had a little Yogi Berra in him and never got hung up on details.

"There couldn't possibly be another NBA coach in the past two decades less knowledgeable or less interested in pursuit of NBA minutiae," wrote Ryan.

In this spirit, Jones's pregame interviews with Johnny Most produced broadcast gems. Before the first Celtics-Lakers game of 1986, Most asked K.C. how he planned to stop veteran forward Jamaal Wilkes. Most didn't know that Wilkes had been waived by the Lakers and signed by the Clippers over the summer. Fortunately for Johnny, the coach of the Celtics didn't know either. Thus, listeners to the broadcast were treated to a discussion in which the voice of the Celtics and the head coach of the Celtics plotted ways to contain a player who no longer played for the Lakers. Radio gold.

That mistress chick was nowhere near hot enough to lose your NBA head coaching job over. Yikes.

Prediction: C’s win it all without Udoka.

Paul George is even more overrated than Porzingis.
