So they made a change and replaced a guy, Ainge, who had a lot of success, and with just some decent luck, would have had more, with a very good and smart basketball guy, who's about 15-20 years younger.


Didnt you find it lucky to have been left Tatum?

Ainge built one team, that with a healthy KG knee and a healthy Perkins knee might have won 3 championships instead of winning 1 and losing another in a 7th game Finals hi-jack.

The recent iteration was never a championship team, but without going through all the bad luck, and there was a ton of it, they could have gotten to 2 Finals in the past 4-5 years.

Its not a bad resume.

ESPN wonders why the white guy gets kicked upstairs while the brother has to work his way back up as an assistant somewhere.

[bankshot1]

You mean the white guy who built the Butler program into a national power, and then coached a terrible Celtic team into one of the best teams in the NBA?

You gotta do a better job of questioning hot takes.

Lies damn lies and cherries

Brad took a team stripped of its best players from 25 wins in year 1 to one of the best teams in the NBA in a few years, reaching the ECF 3 of the past 5 years. If not for injuries to KI, Gordo and Kemba, 3 starters, there is a decent chance they would have reached 2 Finals.

since you want to cherry pick stats kid, how do the # you posted compare against the rest of the league's coaches over the same time period?

That would take into account the NBA only played 72 regular season games the past 2 seasons, versus the regular 82, and which your #s ignore. And would likely clip about 6 wins a year from Brad's totals.
 
To add some context to your hand picked cherries, I heard and don't feel like checking or doing the work, that the Celts have more post-season games (or won more p-s games) over the past 5 years than any other NBA team in the same period.

How would that reflect on Brad?

Boston Celtics are having a "Water bottle night" in their first game against the Nets next season.

The first 50 fans who bring their own water bottle will be given a free shot at any Net during warm-ups prior to the game.

Not to be outdone, the Knicks will have a regular 1/2 time watermelon seed-spitting contest at each home game this upcoming season. Fans will be eligible for the contest by buying tickets in the lower sections only at the Garden. Random seat drawings will determine final entrants before the 1/2. Spitters will aim at a life-size cutout of a visiting player, and will be judged on accuracy, velocity, and the kind of verbal invective they use to punctuate their signature moves.

First prize is 2 tickets to a Nets game.

2nd prize is a large bag of popcorn and a free tix to a Sixers game in Philly.

Stay classy Knicks and Celtics fans.

I guess Hammy didn't hear about popcorn night in Philly?

Seems Mare from Easttown had one too many Rolling Rocks

I'd say stay class Philly, but why bother asking for the impossible?

LMAO

Seems like the North East really ought to put civics back in it’s required curriculum somewhere.

NY, Boston, and Philly racing to define deviance down.

Didn't Dodger fans beat the shit out a couple of gay guys not that long ago in the stadium parking lot?

thanks for proving my point so eloquently about fans pointing fingers elsewhere rather than admit to problems in their own back yard.

Popcorn? It's easy to sum it up when you're just talking about popcorn. We're sitting in here, and supposed to be talkin' 'bout the knee injury to the franchise player, and we in here talking about popcorn.  I mean, listen, we're talking about popcorn, not a game, not a game, not a game, we talking about popcorn. Not a game. Not, not … Not the game that our team and our fans go out there and die for and cheer and be in and play every game like it's our last. Not the game, but we're talking about popcorn, man. I mean, how silly is that? … And we talking about popcorn!

One Celtic fan with a bottle, one spitting Knicks fan, and one popcorn dropping 76ers fan.

Compared to : What started as a peaceful celebration eventually got out of control and led to violence and damage to businesses, with police having to step in.

Los Angeles police arrested 76 people and said more than 30 businesses were damaged — some looted — during the celebration that started after the Lakers secured the title. According to the Associated Press, the arrests were for failure to disperse, vandalism, and assault on a police officer (eight officers were injured trying to break up the crowds).

There will not be an official Lakers parade or public celebration this year. With past Lakers titles, those events have drawn hundreds of thousands of people close together.

The Lakers celebration — and a march to support Armenia that saw 100,000 gather in another area of Los Angeles earlier in the day — led to warnings from Los Angeles County health officials about the possible spread of the coronavirus.

In October. During a pandemic.  Ivicsesdo s.

Uh huh.

Sorry. I don’t really consider baseball a sport.

Also I don’t consider LA my backyard, as thankfully it’s north of Camp Pendleton. TJ has a bigger influence in most of my town than LA since we’re TJ’s northern suburb.

Our culture would only benefit if we could remove football, baseball, nascar, and gay bashing completely from the equation.

And horse racing. That is some fucked up shit as well.

Fac I had you as a SoCal guy

but specific neighborhood aside, your wokeness seems a little sleepy.

Isn't Dodger fans repeatedly beating the shit out of Giant fans and Mets fans (I found 2 references) a little more serious than one moron throwing water in Boston, or a jerk dropping popcorn in Philly, or a Knick fan spitting on a player?

As I said people find it easier to ease their conscious by pointing fingers at others rather than address their own issues.
