Everyone's settled in now. Boston won game 1 against GS and still lost. We'll see.
Cool editing.
Dallas shot their wad against MINN
What did Boston have to give up to get Jru, Porzingus and White?
Pritchard was a great draft pick. The ex GS GM was right: the real MVP of that team is Brad Stevens.
The refs took Boston
I know its been discussed but Luka needs to fix his body. He's listed at 6'7" and 235 pounds with soft arms and a double chin. If he flipped most of that fat for muscle he'd be a lean 245. No one could handle him inside and maybe, just maybe the blocking foul at the end of the game is a charge because he's actually quick enough to get his feet set. Larry Bird liked to drink beer with the best of them but he was a fanatical workout warrior. Luka on the other hand is a world class video gamer. No joke. You don't just become that, it takes hours and hours of time. He's an incredible talent and I'd love to see the best version of him before it's too late.
Meh.
I don't like the Celtics, but they got Jru which was the winner move. That dude is the reason that the Pelicans upset the Blazers in 2019. Was a difference maker when the Bucks won it all.
Now has instilled defense and toughness on an otherwise soft skill team in Boston.
Probably won't even watch this game.

Well, that was an ass kicking
I tried to watch a quarter of the Fakers/Warriors. 
It's just boring. Get rid of the three point line or cap the amount you can take. Make the minimum age 21. That solves most of the problems.

I don't disagree about the problems you identify with your solutions. They'd have to ban the 3 for a generation to reset how kids train and how coaches plan, though. Maybe they could limit 3's to only counting in the final 3 minutes of each quarter or something. I'd say push the line back a foot or more but these guys are hitting 28 footers these days.I tried to watch a quarter of the Fakers/Warriors.

I think the real problems are culture- related issues that won't change without a new commissioner. The players don't give a shit about winning or the fans. They only want the money and a social media following for their podcasts.
Barkley is fucking awesome.
