    Two words.

    Duplicitous Depth.

    Boston and Ainge have done a sensational job building a deep roster with great young talent on rookie deals that can actually slide in place of superstars and play. They have a best DEFENSIVE MASTERMIND coach. He's good offensively too. Really a genius on both ends. But their defense has kept on ticking with the loss of the superstars.

    And Ainge in my opinion is the best draft talent evaluator in the business presently. He knows basketball players and he knows championship mettle.

    Much respect to the Celtics......The team I rooted for as a child after the Kings left my childhood hometown teamless.

    We have depth.

    We just bought Luc an extra week of rest. Ryno and Joe are ready to roll.

    BUNB IN 6...

    At the very worst we will be 5-5 vs the 2017 champs this season.

    Sorry. I can't stomach that. Win or die.

    With all due respect, the job is not done. I’m confident though that some way, somehow, the Rockets band together tighter than ever before and find a way.

    I’m not satisfied. We haven’t won the series yet

    Harden's offense is on or off, when things are not going our way, the offense is really ugly, everyone is frozen

    It depends on cp3. Hope leborn can join our team next year. Mda should think about to use our bench player when we have a big lead

    All of my sadness avoidance techniques are not working.

    My kids couldn't make it through breakfast without breaking down and it brought it all back.

    I would like to have had some gravy.
