This idea in the NBA of blaming the coach for everything is nutty.

That said, I'm not sure the playoffs have been kind to Thibs. We really didn't have the talent to get into the top ten in the East?

I think we did.

I don't see any arguments for his inflexibility and lack of imagination. Yeah, Rose and Noel were injured, but most all the top teams dealt with significant injuries. It's just a really fluid, dynamic league now....and there's a real question whether Thib's old school wisdom and skillsets can take you anywhere anymore.

4 steals and a block alternately locking up C. Paul and D. Booker down the stretch in an elimination game, you better like him:)


** bonus value: allowing himself to be used as a human weapon by Jae Crowder to destroy Chris Pauls thumb in advance of game 7.

Monster game.

This series is old school and reminds me of the classic '81 rockfight with Philly, arguably the greatest 7-gamer non-final in NBA history.

Hey Bank, Chamaco always, ALWAYS, told you that Jayson Tatum was a great player, and also that Boston did a great trade with Philly when you guys got him.

But you would not believe him, and kept saying they should have stuck to the No. 1 pick and just get Markelle Fultz.

Now you know Chamaco was right and you and everybody else were wrong, as usual.

Carlos my old friend, when you're right you're right. And I should have tipped my tam o shanter to kid's keen eye for talent and reasoned takes on roundball. He saw the diamond in the rough, the brilliance hidden, that almost no one else saw in Tatum.

Kid is special.

Poor doggie! 🐶

He is not a no-class little cunt, he was just joking. We all know BoZ is alive and well, and running a re-education camp in Xinjiang.

The problem I think was the front office wanted him to use Kemba as a starter when he should have been deep bench if used at all. In addition to not working it created disharmony that spread everywhere.

We had league best D after the allstar break. If we have a reasonably smart offseason we should be back in next year.

Not sure Noels injury impacted anything one way or the other.

And here are a few tam o' shanters so you can chose the one you deem more appropriate for your homage to Chamaco:

Whew - tough game to watch.

Philadelphia, coaching the 76ers.

Chamaco has a jinx. If he likes a team, a coach, a player, then something bad is gonna happen to them.

But the same is true in reverse: if he dislikes you, you are in luck 🍀

And so it goes with Doc Rivers. Chamaco really, really despised him. So, what happens to Doc??

Nothing! He stays with the 6ers!

You really are a no class little cunt.

I'm a "NCLC" most def, but my statement is not possibly true. Apparently nobody has died in China despite all these cases and fuss. Only place in the world where thousands get it and nobody kroaks!

People really gotta stop blaming the messagedawg 4 stuff.

All I did was this:

Respond "It depends on what you call normal" when he posted that crap about life in China being normal.

He then proceeded to poop all over himself again and again. Disgraced himself so badly he had no choice but to disappear.

Then, he got locked up for real w/o food or internet.

But I didn't do it!

Both teams are exhausted.  Neither will say UNCLE - ever.

Great NBA show.
