    Does Everything Make a Difference?

    I have a dedicated room (and in the middle of building a new one in our new house), but am not a believer in the everything matters viewpoint obviously. Agreed, that viewpoint is a state of mind, leave no tiny pebble unturned, but feeding the mindset isn’t the same as improving performance...

    Does Everything Make a Difference?

    I heard Marty’s system once , and it was incredibly dialed in That said, I’m comfortable in my beliefs on the subject.

    Does Everything Make a Difference?

    I think a lot of the stuff doesn't matter, and hearing differences between, say , a rhodium plated outlet and a gold plated one as a broad example, is likely about your mood in that moment, and possibly anxiety in trying to find a difference. My feeling and experience suggests that these...

    Celts get Jrue Holiday for Brogdon, Robert Williams and picks. Big move. Get some toughness back after moving Smart, and a lot more. Porzingas is the rim protector now.

    Can anybody explain Washington to me? Trade away your two best assets, one a perennial all star and get zero first rounders back Has anyone seen a statement by the GM?

    Whatever the disorder might be , he’s certainly self-destructive. He’s attained a place of special privilege, but as a second offense now he‘s actively working toward losing it all. I‘m gonna guess too that he could use a new set of friends.

    Agreed. Just surprised they let go of easily their number one asset and got apparently little to build off of

    Beal to Phoenix for CP3, Landry Shamet and a bunch of second rounders. Can anyone explain to me why you trade Beal for a package w/no first rounders? the trade

    Job 1 of the Celts staff is to figure how to make those two more than the sum of their parts.

    Brown would be a whole lot more dangerous w/a post game. He's got a few inches at least on most guys covering him. Not at all looking for him to be Jokic, but he'd need to improve his passing in this scenario as well. Though he needs to do this anyway.

    I think this is a good chunk of why the seemed like 'a team on a mission' -- they felt championship bound a couple of years ago.

    I agree unfortunately. That said, I loved the way they used Gordon to overpower whatever smaller 3 shooting guy was covering him, feeding him down low for easy-ish 2s. And anytime they want to move the 3 line out a bit, separate the really good shooters from the merely adequate ones (guys...

    Joker is unique, but I'll be thrilled if he and the Nuggets pull the NBA back a bit toward big man ball/2pt shot vs relentless focus on 3s.

    Yeah, love the fact that they’re the opposite of the ‘buy a superstar/team’ model, which is not the type of team to get behind (for me anyway) and watch grow, but rather a collection of players at the moment. Porter (2 back surgeries) and Murray (out 1.5 yrs) both made the point of what a...

    Great to see a new team win it all. They play great team ball and look to be around for a few years.

    Porter looks lost, and Braun’s the only Denver bench player making an impact. That said, Denver dominating because the big two are just too good. Would be a historic fail to lose at this point.

    Putting Pop aside, I think Malone and Spoelstra are the best coaches in the league now. Among many other reasons, I’ve always felt that the best coaches get the most out of their role players — they empower those guys and have them playing with total confidence — you see this with both the Heat...

    I hear you on being kind of bored watching the Celts, mostly one-on-one play, and to your shooting point, hard to out-3 the Heat w/all those supporting guys. You'd think Tatum/Brown should be able to work a really tough two man game, not the same style as Jokic/Murray, but something more...

    Heat are just a mentally tougher team top to bottom, and the wrong one to get in a 3 shooting contest. Will be interesting to see where your Cs go from here Phil. I doubt they’ll break up major parts, but I think Tatum and Brown have to play as more than the sum of their parts; it’s one or...

    Agreed with some of the above sentiments — It’s hard to imagine Bam and Butler playing worse, and the Celts seems shaky under pressure, pretty much giving the game away the other night until the freak ending. They also made some really dumb fouls late, bailing out a cold shooting team. Am for...
