If this is true, it's Nike once again demonstrating that they have either: 1) some of the worst designers in the world, or 2) good designers who are forced by their higher-ups into doing terrible work.

The Celtics already transitioned from celebration toward preparation long ago. Horford, speaking with CLNS Media at his camp, said Sam Hauser, Luke Kornet, Payton Pritchard and the team?s younger cast including Jordan Walsh and Baylor Scheierman have set a tone among the early arrivers Auerbach Center workouts in recent weeks. Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have joined them, standing out physically, as did Kristaps Porziņģis on Saturday who Horford will fill in for as Porziņģis continues his rehab from June surgery. It?s been so impressive, told CLNS. Our guys, everybody just getting in, trying to get better. I think that Sam Hauser, Luke Kornet, but then Payton Pritchard. I mean, Payton is setting the tone. He looks really good. All our young guys as well, Jordan Walsh, Baylor (Scheierman). Baylor has looked pretty impressive in these days, but everybody?s just really committed to putting in the work and getting after it, and the rest of us, obviously, we?ve been in there too and it?s just been nice to see everybody in there working back together and kind of turning the page and getting ready for this season.via CLNSMedia.com

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Yeah the funny thing is, I'm pretty sure Shaq and most of these guys literally picked Dallas to win the series. And again, these guys seem to forget the C's didn't have Porzingis for like 80% of the run.

But whatever. I'm just glad we finally won Banner 18 and are back ahead of the Lakers  ;D

Oh and that reminds me, got to update the personal text under my profile pic  :laugh:

I'm also a believer that a regression is coming for the Heat and Butler is gonna be out of there soon. Not worried about them. They had a pretty eventful offseason including Pat Riley basically ripping some of their guys, the team and even Haslem lol (for his ESPN comments). And they aren't as potent + Butler is gonna be 35 with knee issues. It's Boston-New York-Philly in some order at the top.

Who cares about critics and pundits?  #18 is in the rafters, and there are no asterisks.

Exactly.  Who gives two [dang]s what anyone says about last season at this point?

Has a player who doesn't contribute to winning ever made the cover of Time Magazine before?  ;)

Can't wait to see what BS backstory Nike comes up with for the "inspiration" for this season's city jersey.

If this is true, it's Nike once again demonstrating that they have either: 1) some of the worst designers in the world, or 2) good designers who are forced by their higher-ups into doing terrible work.

The more whacked-out the design, the better Nike thinks it looks.
I would prefer a return to the traditional home & away uniforms and make the alternate the St. Patrick's with the pretty gold trim.
Maybe include the black/green uniforms the 2008 champion wore that we still have. Not traditional, but sharp and have been good luck for us.

Great to hear. The young guys leading the effort against complacency.

And he just did an episode of Hot Ones. I'm not sure which one is more prestigious at this point.
