    It's clear that Kelvin Sampson was the real coach of the squad.
    Explains the meltdown of the 1st rd.
    I am hopefull that Les/Morey will bring in a good headcoach to assist McHale.

    Carl is just mad he got called out in the Harden positively thread. As we all know Carl like sto ***** on everything and troll his way into a Patrick Patterson wet dream.

    I think watching McHale limp along the sidelines is an inspiration to limpers everywhere. Kudos Kevin!!

    I'm a big fan of his last name. Double capitalization names are the bomb.

    I love McHale as a Celtics. The record speaks for itself:

    7 x NBA All-Star (84, 86-91)
    2 x NBA Sixth Man of Year (84-85)
    NBA All Rookie First Team (81)

    3 x NBA Champions (81, 84,86)

    Look at that shot over Hakeem back in 86

    A great player!

    You can ask people to be positive, but if they aren't good people, they won't be. They'll just get snarky or attack you for being positive about someone they think they can safely target while pretending everybody else feels like they do.

    Dude, Kevin Mchale is holding this team back. This team could be far more dangerous without him

    He did not improve our win total. Two things happened for our win total to increase.

    1. A guy named James Harden
    2. Another dude called Dwight Howard

    Sometimes being positive is consciously brainwashing yourself to think something is better than it really is.

    Aging roster, injured Kobe. Different scenario. I don't know of any team in the NBA that if a Dwight Howard is added with no other changes to the roster would not have a better record.

    I keep hearing good things about his hair. Something similar to milk.
