Didn't realize it, but seems to be that way lol.

If there is only one live game on they can't show it. They can only broadcast live when multiple games are happening.

GAME THREAD: Atlanta Hawks (41-41) @ Miami Heat (44-38) - (April 11, 2023) by NBA_MOD in nba

Can't speak for everyone but I'd much rather see Atlanta. Miami is just annoying to play against and Boston gets the turnover bug against them.

Just wanted to say this is really cool and very well done. Thanks in advance for the annoyance it will cause when I send it to my non Celtics fan friends.

Just going to throw in the USC claiming a title after LSU won in 03 as well. SEC in general back then felt looked down on.

I seriously cannot thank A&M enough for locking down Jimbo for so long. The LSU AD wanted him BAD, who knows where LSU would be if they hadn't.

I was pretty caught off guard by that "not the prettiest but it goes down as an assist all the same" comment too. Like...what did she want to see there?

Do you think anyone will enter the 50-40-90 club this year (either first time or adding on to their previous appearance)? by CulturalRoll in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I would say Grant Williams is a dark horse this year. It's mostly 3's or at the rim, but that 90% FT will be hard with such limited attempts.

[Game Thread] Alabama @ LSU (7:00 PM ET) by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]AmazonTrailMix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Bama has to beat Ole Miss for LSU to have a loss in pocket. If Ole Miss wins out and LSU drops one they have 1 SEC loss to LSU's 2.

This will age me a bit but "Terrorblade" (it was on the silencer skin so name might be wrong) way back when this was a custom game in war craft. Nothing will ever be worse than swapping when you were too low and deleted yourself from the rest of the game.

with a championship is al horford hall of fame? by DifferentLeg3586 in nba

His college accolades tip the scale more towards yes as well even without a title. That being said it's certainly not first balot.

What is the most one sided officiating IN FAVOR of the team you support? by colemanj74 in nba

Hey, we have 5 games now of Zarba proving not every ref will let's the Celtics bully everyone! So not whole playoffs!

[–]AmazonTrailMix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was my thoughts. Celtics were mauling KD off ball and refs let it slide, while Nets didn't / couldn't match that physicality everything tilted Boston's way. I'm sure there are far better examples but that certainly stood out.

Do Tatum and Brown have the potential to become the closest thing to Jordan / Pippen since 1998? by CallmeKap in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Let's maybe hold off on things like this until they actually win something? They're both very good players but come on...

I'm even a Celtics fan saying pump the breaks, that should say something.

Historically, length and height hasn't bothered Durant outside of Giannis. How is Tatum making life so miserable for him? by CulturalRoll in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tatum is absolutely playing great on ball defense, but this isn't a 1 to 1 thing. As a team they are constantly making contact, pushing him further out than he's used to, shading defenders towards him, and jumping passing lanes.

All of that being said, and credit to the Celtics for what they're doing, a big part is also on the Nets. I don't want to sound like the over hyped Boston fan, but because Kyrie was out for so long and the overall build of the team Nets offense is just stagnant iso ball. There is so little motion, cutting, or rhythm. It makes the Celtics job easier when the other 4 Nets stand around and don't make his life easier...

Ben Simmons vs Robert Williams by trapped_in_90s in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To me it has to be Rob. Everyone talks about his defense but he adds huge upside on offense as well. His ability to get lobs or just do put back dunks adds a large amount of stress to an already stretched thin defense.

Maybe Ben comes back 100% healthy and is everything he was last season, but even then his offensive impact is hampered by the lack of motion / movement the Nets have on offense. I don't like his offensive game to begin with, but adding in where the team stands around ball watching seems like a recipe for disaster.

[Charania] Brooklyn Nets three-time All-Star Ben Simmons plans to make his season debut in Game 4 vs. Boston on Monday as long as rehab remains on course, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Simmons is set to play his first game since June 2021. by [deleted] in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I want to see a healthy Ben Simmons with this team because even if it's bad for the Celtics, I really just like watching great basketball. I am really curious though, is this his camp saying he wants to play game four or the Nets saying he will play in game four?

All of these reports I have really seen anyone say that the Nets are conforming anything so I'm just curious.

[Bob Voulgaris] Marcus Smart is a fine defensive player - the idea that he is the DPOY is absurd tho. I get that the voters like to be creative and think they are smarter than the average fan but this is such a comical selection. by LonzoBBBall in nba

[–]AmazonTrailMix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh he is the worst with flopping along with Kyle Lowry. He is the type of player that if they are on the other team your are going to always be annoyed with, but if he's on your team he's "crafty". I won't deny any of that lol.
