It's a rare team that could single team Luka and got away with it. It's nice to have someone like Jaylen. We were without our starter Rui. I think if everyone was healthy for all teams, the Lakers would still be the team to beat.
They have everyone except Porky but I think old man Al is better than Porky and they played Tatum and Brown 40+ minutes. That's unsustainable. Needless to say, they would not be able to do this in a 7-game series, especially if the Cavs and Pacers gave them hell on their way to the finals. Not a cakewalk to the finals like they've got last year.

He was the first NBA coach to start 5 Black players. Bill Russell, K.C. Jones, Sam Jones, Tom Sanders, and Willie Naulls. He won eight straight championships from 1959 to 1966. He made Bill Russell the first Black HC in the NBA. Why do you call him a piece of (bleep)?

The report is Bron has a left groin strain. There are 5 groin muscles. Does anyone know which one he strained?

I was a Knickabaker fan during Red's tenure. I disliked the Celtics because they were beating my team. I'm Black, so I liked their Black players. They had more Black players than any team in the NBA. I rooted for the Knicks because they had Sweetwater Clifton, a Black player. I guess you can label me triable.

I can't find it now but I do remember congratulating Laker fans on this board in 2010 which was one of my most painful memories as a Celtics fan. |
Now that you mention it, I remember it as well. A lot of us were stinging from the injury to LeBron after the game, in addition to having Rui, Jaxson out. The 'sore loser' comment was not timed very well in context, you might give Laker fans a little space if a potential season ending injury is on our minds. But I do recall you chiming in to congratulate us in 2010, that stood out to me, fair enough. |
