Thanks Mitch. My son is four and, based on your advice, I just gave him the keys to my CRV and sent him out on the highway. Can you give me any further advice for a driving four-year-old that I can text to him, both to keep him safe but also to accelerate the racing/learning process? Thanks.
1. There is an ABSOLUTE ZERO chance the pick the Celtics got back will be no. 30. Neither the 2018 Lakers nor the 2019 Kings will have the best record in the NBA, and I will bet both of my kidneys and both of my kids’ livers on that.
You’re right about that...although it wasn’t clear, that’s why I said “in most cases.” The Anthony Davis draft was clearly a case where you’d be crazy to trade the number 1 pick; as it was with LeBron James, Tim Duncan, the Durant/Oden draft (even though it didn’t work out), maybe the John Wall draft. But more often…

I originally read this as “My girlfriend thought I had inhaled a butter knife.” Which....not recommended.
He should have hit the cutoff man because the cutoff man was a white guy, and would be in a better position to make a proper decision with the baseball than Puig, who flips bats and takes slow home run trots. The thing Puig doesn’t understand (or probably care about) is that the runner going first to third was a very…
I’ve never understood why physical dominance is somehow held against players when talking about greatness. People do that to Shaq all the time. Stupid. Your results between the lines are what make you great. That’s all.
Person says: “I am a scientist, and I believe the scientific research that indicates climate change is happening and will adversely affect society.”
I think it’s the “onward” part that is most important here. It’s not that Ainge doesn’t want to contend until 2021; it’s that he wants to content WELL beyond that. So he doesn’t want to sell out to go as high as he can the next 2-3 years and then have a roster that’s aging fast, bloated, and needs to be restructured…
I think the fact that you CAN both: come up with crticism of Ainge not dealing for Butler; and also imagine you might have been critical if they HAD acquired Butler—-shows there really is legit ambiguity to whether he was the best target for the Celtics, and in the end justifies the “no deal” approach.
If you want to believe that report and subsequently you think Ainge is dumb for not taking that deal and that’s how you form your opinion of Danny Ainge as an executive, you have my blessing.
No, he mentioned the Spurs as one of the teams with a halfway decent player that was going to blow it up.
First of all, I don’t believe for a second that Chicago offered Butler straight up for the number 3.
You say
The Pacers have been told by Paul George that he will not stay with them, and their GM publicly called it “a gut punch.” The team is not making a decision to “blow it up.” That have to trade George or get nothing for him.
My guess is that the tampering will be in the form of a public twitter message to LeBron James offering him $250 million a year for 30 years to join the Lakers after next season.
“I love that the universal response of every team with a halfway decent player is “blow it all up, we’re dumping *everybody* to compete in 2- 3 years.”
I don’t even know what you’re trying to say there.
Saying in no uncertain terms that the players you just traded was not a leader, doesn’t make other players better, and isn’t liked by his teammates is only “not shade” in the sense that the term “shade” isn’t nearly strong enough to accurately illustrate the level of denigration
