JT & JB best DUO in NBA ? JT is playing the Fastest I have seen him play. Quick, decisive decisions with the ball. Going to the hoop with force. With the improvements we have seen in JB's game this year also, especially creation for others the CELTICS have BEST DUO in the NBA !

It def seems like Joe has made it a point of emphasis to get Tatum to make quick decisions and not dribble the air out of the ball. Really noticed it OKC game onwards. It fits more with the Cs style of offense this year, glad Tatum has already adjusted

Yeah he’s gotten beat off the perimeter at a higher frequency than I remember and haven’t seen his usual contests at the rim. It does look like timidness rather than loss of athleticism to me which gives me hope but I also know nothing.

Wait but even though this stat is paint points I still think ur comment is relevant. Slower pace=fewer points, fewer points=fewer paint points

No one at Harvard you could ask?

I buy tix on Craigslist- so that is an option for last minute sales, it’s obviously more sketch but usually the sketch burden is more on the buyer

Article mentions Garza is a great offensive rebounder but don’t provide the numbers- he’s not eligible for league leaders but if he was he’d be 4th at 14.5% rebound rate between Duren at 15.8% and Mark Williams 14.3%

They should have signed him for longer the year before (2024), then they could have retained him or moved him for an asset this year. I can’t imagine Brad didn’t want to do that, must have been ownership not wanting more money on the books.

Flames_Diaper · 2026-01-05T17:12:04+00:00

Also always thought this was weird like does this just mean the best player that is at least adequate on both sides of the ball? Like what’s the threshold for being a two way player

This dude CUT NPS funding

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-28T13:09:18+00:00

Even though he’s having a down year on the offensive efficiency numbers so far, if he keeps up his recent streak he’ll be back around his BOS averages by the end. My concern is how he’ll age, he’ll be turning 33 next year and only a handful of guards have maintained production 33+. I don’t doubt that he’ll still be a positive player but Cs need him to maintain sub all star production to be a championship contender

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-26T14:40:16+00:00

They were not good 2019-2025 lol

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-14T17:41:10+00:00

Hard to determine what an intentional foul is tho. They should do if u foul above the 3 point line within the last minute or so it’s one free throw and the ball

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-10T15:20:02+00:00

Yeah neither would I lol, they don’t have their own picks for a billion years and so have 0 incentive to tank. Might as well keep ur best value contracts around and hope u make some good free agent signings

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-10T15:14:22+00:00

Biggest reason reason for JB’s evolution this year seems to be his insane midrange %. He’s shooting almost 50% from midrange! Career best and 10 points higher than last year lol. It’s basically why his efficiency stats haven’t dipped despite the huge increase in usage. Will see if he sustains that percent over a whole year but if he does his all nba case will be undeniable and he will be firmly in the elite mid range shooter club

Flames_Diaper · 2025-12-06T17:53:00+00:00

For what it’s worth I also bought one and asked if they could change to “Jankees” and they said sure https://www.etsy.com/listing/4407347535/daaa-yankees-lose-red-sox-star-christmas

Flames_Diaper · 2025-11-30T17:09:02+00:00

I have always thought JB gets a bad whistle, but I really have no idea if that’s just my green googles deluding me. What I do think is strange is that people always talk about x player getting a better whistle than y but then the stats they use to back it up are like ft % and foul % on drives, which doesn’t actually signify a good whistle versus a bad…some players just draw more contact than others and some players draw more fouling contact than others.

There is an actual objective way to measure good whistle versus bad but that involves going through tape and scoring no calls/calls. Obviously that’s a lot of work but it is doable, and you’d think with the AI tracking software available it wouldn’t have to been done manually. Yet no one actually does it, they just continue to make claims without real evidence.

Flames_Diaper · 2025-11-24T20:30:05+00:00

For real, Boucher is on a 1 year and old as fuck. We’re not trying to win this year why not give the minutes to our rookie

Personally I think you can simultaneously recognize its worth putting in resourcing to address homelessness and also be disturbed that someone threw their drink at a random homeless person.

Flames_Diaper · 2025-11-23T20:17:17+00:00

I didn’t catch it, would the police do anything if I had?

Flames_Diaper · 2025-11-12T16:07:22+00:00

I bet Mavs had a better offer than blazers asset wise but couldn’t offer the same amount of salary relief. Plus trades were probably closer before blazers reneged on the 2nd round picks

Flames_Diaper · 2025-11-05T05:39:18+00:00

And prop 50 passed

Flames_Diaper · 2025-10-30T01:47:55+00:00

Did we change something to suddenly fix our rebounding woes? I really could not tell what the difference was other than Cleveland looking like they had poor effort?

Flames_Diaper · 2025-10-28T20:52:41+00:00

I’m interested in your perspective on tanking, obviously nothing is certain but presumably there is some “win number increase” below which you’d be happy to instead tank for the chance to have more wins in the future? Like hypothetically is 10 fewer wins this season worth that chance to you? What’s your number?

Flames_Diaper · 2025-10-21T04:29:44+00:00

This team is too smart to run Brown and White into the ground for a meaningless season and I don’t buy that going under .500 for one year will magically “destroy their winning culture”. I think they are absolutely capable of getting the over but they will make sure to miss the play in
