2023-2024 NBA Season - CELTICS win 18th Championship!


Recommended Posts

It's 1:15am: 

Breaking: The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed on a trade to send guard James Harden to the L.A. Clippers, sources tell @wojespn. 

 

 

That's 3 forced trades by Harden. Good luck Clips, they're going to need it after a year and a half I bet.

Playoff time is here. 😎

Season ends tonight hopefully.  I will say that before during this series, I got a glimpse of how obnoxious Cowboys fans must be (hard to gauge when you are one).  At least with the Cowboys there have been rings won though.

They brought out the big guns for tonight so I'm optimistic. (Scott Foster, Gucci Ref. Plus Tony Brothers on replay). It's all a moot point if we jump on Dallas early and make them start thinking about their vacation destinations.

I honestly thought they had quit before that last run in Game 3.  Saw 83 percent of betting public was on Dallas before the series started.  That blew my mind.  Goes to show you that most casual basketball fans only pay attention to offense and scoring.  Got so sick of hearing the Mavs have the best 2 players in the series (although Luka being the best is probably a given).  But when your two “stars” are easily the worst two defenders of the 10 starters in the game, you’ve got problem.  Defense winning championships is still a thing.

Can you imagine if the Finals were on TNT? SVG and Reggie would still be defending Kyrie and Luka after 3 straight bad games on the defensive end. That best backcourt of all-time thing got hushed up real quick by the C's thankfully.

    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
    • @CIS_org National Security Senior Fellow @BensmanTodd tells Steve Bannon how the U.S. State Department and USAID have been sending American taxpayer funds to religious nonprofits to facilitate mass immigration to our southern border. Bensman says 248 nonprofits are participating in the United Nations’ 2024 agenda to distribute $1.6 billion in cash, transportation, food, and shelter to U.S.-bound immigrants across Mexico and Latin America.
