them boys are ballin

they are def "being guys"

tatum thriving in the chaos of this celtics early season is borderline miraculous

i thought "guy" had a negative connotation, like a whatever player who is easily replaceable

"They are young guys but, to us, with the situation we're in, they're guys," Stevens said. "Like, we need them to be guys."

haha oh i hadn't seen that quote, i swear some GM used it in the way i mentioned in the past couple of years tho

its a flexible term

there are JAGs and there are Guys. there are also Young Guys sometimes. that's how i break it down to an extent.

yeah i think i was thinking of "just a guy"

replacement level guy

boogie is the best player now, doesnt seem too long ago ppl on this board were asking if he was good or not

Blazers vs. Raptors, was tied at 29-29 at end of the 1st quarter. Then the Blazers scored only 6 points in the 2nd quarter!

After Monday's win, the Celtics now have the top defensive rating (95.6) in the NBA.

Seems as if kyrie was carrying Bron all these years

lebron james, classic second banana

The Phoenix Suns "7 Seconds or Less" '04-'05 team, which led the NBA in pace, would rank 25th this season.

16 shots at the rim jfc

he fixed his ft problems by just taking deep breaths or something

saw a stat that blew my mind:

John Stockton played all 82 games in 17 of his 19 seasons...

that is crazy

ya I remember perusing his bkref page years ago and being amazed by that

played 82 at age 40!

was in the playoffs every season he played in as well. nba all defense 5 times. what a baller.

Who's hustling?

Promising for fox

yeah if he learns to shoot a lil he cld be a real beast, has an insane amount of bounce in his step

i think hes good

kings are "interesting"

fox and bagley seem like they cld have some resonance but its the kings so theyll prob have to leave before seeing a winning season

prediciton: aaron fox has such excellent physical tools to work with, he's bound to eventually find a niche in the nba that lets him play for a ten to twelve year career.

All-time PG leader in rebounds*

* - Actually, like 3,000 of these or so belong to Steven Adams.

steven adams averaged 5.1 offensive rebounds per game last season and only 4 dr/g. O_O

dude could average 15 boards pretty easily.

7'1" Meyers Leonard recorded 0 blocks last season

wuuuut lol how is that even possible
