This grammar is so terrible it inspired me to comment. Jesus, man.

I don’t think it’s a bad deal for Cleveland, and it makes sense for them in their situation. But it’s also a good deal for Boston given their situation and, forced to choose, I think Boston did a little better here than Cleveland did.

You can like Crowder if you want, but with the addition of Hayward and Tatum and the expected emergence of Jaylen Brown, there weren’t too many tears shed here for his inclusion in this trade. The BK pick is another story. With so many picks, you’d think the Celtics could have gotten this done with a different pick or…

Doris and her ex-husband, Gregg, both went to Providence College. When I was a kid, I was a ball boy for PC’s men’s basketball team. Gregg was an assistant athletic director (I think - I was like 10 years old and so at the time he just seemed like the guy in charge of the ball boys). Gregg is a dumb looking, goofy…

Not really, the NFL is not the NBA and Chris Hogan was not the most important player on a championship (or any other) team. The Bulls’ rings are Jordan’s. The Heat and Cavs’ rings are Lebron’s. The possible flaw in Jordan’s argument is that not all of the Lakers’ rings that Kobe has are his - some of those are Shaq’s.

Since the metrics seem to prove out our eyeballed impressions of who the best players are - look at the other guys mentioned along with Paul here - is it possible that the metrics actually are working correctly, but that Paul is just an exception (while I hate the expression, maybe one that “proves the rule”) and that…

Putting aside the fact that he got the verse wrong or whatever it is (not a bible person so I’d never have caught this), this is a weird-as-fuck thing to say, no?

The thing about that map that makes it visually misleading (as fascinating and jarring as it is to look at) is that those little blue islands represent where all the people in the country are located and the large swaths of red represent mostly forrests and farms and mountains and bodies of water. 

I’m not a boxing aficionado. I think it’s cool enough that if I can watch a guy I’ve heard of before fight for free on a Saturday night with not much else on, I’ll watch it. But I’m not going to be able to even guess the percentage of punches landed with my naked eye, or whatever.

“Or better yet, to reunite Butler with the newly released Rajon Rondo, a known fan of Butler’s.”

George Freaking Hill wants/could seriously get a max deal? What a world.

You have no earthly idea what you’re talking about.

It’s hard not to take him at face value here considering that he did just forego the chance to draft Fultz, right? I mean, that could very well turn out to be a mistake, but it’s hard to imagine him doing this deal if he really wanted Fultz.

They probably would prefer Pence and would trade him for Trump in a heartbeat. The problem is that these soulless, unprincipled assholes have already debased themselves defending him and supporting him. So a move now to impugn him and impeach him would be impossible to pull off without getting some of the mess all…

Not that it’s going to matter at all - Cleveland will likely win the next two games easily and Boston’s miracle game 3 win will be the equivalent of getting one lucky punch in during an otherwise brief and uninteresting ass kicking - but what makes rooting for the Celtics so fun is that they are the last team that…

I guess it is OK for the average internet commenter to be this naive and simple. But it’s a problem that the President is apparently is right there with you.

No, but I saw the sequence at the end of the first half wherein Marcus Smart was called for a foul for playing textbook perfect defense on a Beal turnaround 18 foot jumper, immediately followed by a felonious assault on Smart at the other end that drew no call. I saw at least four block/charge calls that, despite the…

I’m a shitty human being? I didn’t say that I ref’d the game, man.

Idk. If it was rigged, the officials didn’t get the memo. Always good to win 5-on-8, though.

Oh, yeah. I don’t care so much about that. If you want to shelter your children from the type of supposedly taboo language that is nonetheless ubiquitous everywhere except possibly in church and on broadcast TV, don’t bring them to a place with 20,000 adults consuming booze and tribe-based entertainment.
