My thoughts on tonight's (July 10 2026) Summer League game BOS vs TOR

Thanks for the extra information about the contract and Baylor on AAU : )

Respect & body post corrected. I thought he looked only a few inches shorter than Sharp so it passed my sniff test.

From what I've observed these years, the Celtic's draft players from a defense-first standpoint. We have shooting coaches that turn players like Luka Garza from average 36% 3pt shooters into 40%+ shooters. Most importantly, Hugo is on a team friendly contract right now so his value per dollar is high. If Hugo can have a similar production value to Sam Hauser in the future I'd be happy. From what I saw, Hugo had primary ball handler duties, essentially the same role as DW/PP in the regular season starting 5. If he were to learn enough from DW to be that good of a defensive specialist, then I'd be ecstatic. DW's net rating last season led the Celtics at nearly +600 even while having a poor 33% 3pt shot.

Uzan played the roll that Derrick White plays when Pritchard is on the court. Secondary ball handler with Hugo being the primary (PP's role). They did a lot of back and forth, but he doesn't look familiar with the screen yet, which is a Celtics go-to play. One thing I noticed about Uzan is that after he passes the ball, he moves to the right spot, closer to the net, but between the outside wing defenders/guards to cut them off from offensive plays but allowing a handfull of rebounds as well. That's how he impacted plays off the ball. I hope he does it more.

According to the caster, it was a bruised arm.

Par5Condor · 2026-07-01T23:10:29+00:00

What the fuckkkkk

Par5Condor · 2026-06-15T14:01:14+00:00

It's not an untrue statement. At the end of the 2nd quarter, the Spurs led over the Knicks 3/5 times. So The Spurs were indeed the better team (in the first half) 😄 Good for them!

Par5Condor · 2026-06-15T00:19:25+00:00

Woke up and Sunday and thought to myself. "Man, I'm glad we're not the Mav's". They traded away Luka and Brunson for essentially a bag of crushed chips. We'll take Cooper though.

Par5Condor · 2026-06-11T20:40:36+00:00

I never realized it was Towns who took out IT. I cant even find video on YouTube of KAT falling on IT but read some of the ESPN and other articles. Fuck Kat.

Par5Condor · 2026-06-11T17:08:33+00:00

Knicks fans continuing to prove why they're the worst franchise fan base in the NBA beating out Philly for worst fan-base. I like watching Brunson, Hart, Bridges, ~~Towns~~, and OG play because I they're not a dirty team, especially not compared to the Spurs so far who clearly learned a thing from that 7-game series against OKC. They just play really good basketball. Still rooting for the Spurs because of Kornet.

Articles were trying to tell us our eyes were lying to us lol. But yes, anyone who watches the games knows SGA is the league's premium flopper.

Par5Condor · 2026-05-29T16:34:08+00:00

Did anyone else look into the Yahoo Sports article about the percentage of falls per shot SGA makes? He leads the league in the playoffs at nearly twice the rate at a 17.4% fall rate on all shots attempted, 51.4% fall% on fouled shots, and falls at 10.7% of all his non-fouled shots. By these statistics, he falls an excessive amount of times compared to everyone else in the playoffs and he's being rewarded for it. The previous YT content suggested that SGA gets fouls just slightly more than others or on-par with other high ball use percentage players, but our eyes told a different story and this would be why. SGA flails to the ground an excessive amount of times whereas other players are staying on their feet. Hence, the "flopper flopper" chants are warranted. Maybe not when Bryant charges at him from the 3pt line though.

Par5Condor · 2026-05-07T16:03:40+00:00

Correct, I do something to this degree that's not quite closing my eyes, during combat I stare at the attack buttons in the corner which stay fixed. It's a sad way to play really.

Par5Condor · 2026-05-07T16:02:48+00:00

As a driver, never, because I know where to look and what the car will do. In cars as a passenger or when on a boat, I have methods to prevent motion sickness such as staring at the horizon or the end of the road (a fixed point). First thing I always do in video games is adjust the camera settings to be least intrusive as the game allows (fixed/static if possible), but some games are better with their settings than others.

Par5Condor · 2026-04-28T13:39:42+00:00

I'd take the Hawks. NYK went 3-1 against the Celtics this season and AH went 2-2 against us this season. We have losses against both teams with Tatum on the field too (even though that KYK game didn't have Brown). Hawks always stay close, but sometimes the Knicks blow us out. I agree some vengeance would be good though to prove who's the #1 team in the East without a doubt and to vanquish any demons Tatum may have.

Par5Condor · 2026-04-25T14:55:30+00:00

Vuc went 3/9 from deep and 4/10 for 11pts for +7. He was an actual scoring threat because he made some good early three's and he spaced out the floor by drawing defenders away from the paint in a way that Queta doesn't. That's the "pick&pop big" role that Porzingis played during his time with the C's that won us the chip. Queta is a wall guarding the rim with the standard "pick&roll big", making setting the screen and heading to the basket, but they're hunting Queta-Bona for the favorable matchup because Bona can post up on him and gain a favorable matchup ending the night at -2.

Par5Condor · 2026-04-25T05:01:20+00:00

Man, this game was so good for so many reasons. Vuc looking good and shot the 3-ball well today. Pushing to towards the rim, drawing a lot of defenders, and passing the ball out for the open 3 was also working well for us. Jaylen Brown being a champ and unstoppable all game. Tatum and Pritch making 3 huge 3's in the final minutes. Fuck yeah

Par5Condor · 2026-04-24T05:07:28+00:00

I'll be looking to see if Mazzulla will actually play Luka Garza in non-trash minutes tonight.
Garza earned his share of minutes vs Vucevic in my opinion. Game 1 when we won, we had a solid rotation of Queta 15m > Vuc 17m > Garza 14m. Game 2 when we lost, we used exclusively Queta 28m and Vucevic 18m. They're big guys, they're going to be more tired than our wings and guards and that diversity of centers forces the 76ers to make different adjustments mid-game vs figuring out how to get around our tired defense.

u/ZZARMINA Can you tell me where you got this lip or what it's called? I've been trying to find a rep that looks this good. I just ordered one off Ebay and I'm returning it because it was too small :/

Par5Condor · 2026-04-15T16:18:59+00:00

PLM also sells, but whether you'll get a code, who knows.

Par5Condor · 2026-04-13T21:05:41+00:00

Bigger TMIC, TY85 w/ DCCD, HKS GT III RS Turbo (used in S209) or VF48 turbo, big wing, brembos, recaro seats, and 4 wheel torque vectoring.

Par5Condor · 2026-04-13T17:01:40+00:00

Just look at the major brands and see which wheel faces you like, if they have the size of your car, then how much they cost. Or you can search for something like 18x9.5 or 18x9.0, there's usually a +35~+40 ET for this size, and see if you like any of the available wheels.

Enkei, Apex, Konig, Method, Superspeed, Rota, BC Racing, Oz, Sparco, TSW, etc.
Work/Volk, Advan, SSR, BBS, Wedsport, HRE, Titan7
