It's been very obvious that the Celtics are now in rebuild mode.
I think when people think "tanking" they imagine losing on purpose. Coaching your team to lose games, etc.
And we have a winner. I'm still a little bit dissappointed Elie didn't go at him and start a fight. Maxwell had to do the job in game 6 & in game 7 Cassell started it and Maxwell finished it with the elbow to the head! :grin:
Don't see how he's lying. Rebuilding doesn't mean tanking. And what GM/Coach/Owner would admit to tanking if they did.
No GM will ever admit to deliberately shredding the roster in order to ensure the highest possible chance of winning the lottery.
It's surprising that you credulous rapscallions wouldn't condone fronting. Representing is what it's all about, dawg! Put your hand in the grab bag and pull out a whole fist full of front. Gobble it up and represent!
