  • Signature move: Punch to the jejunum
Just did some digging to quantify my stance and looking at the NBA clutch statistic

- In win percentage, the top five teams are 76ers, Hornets, Nets, Blazers and Lakers...the Celtics are fifth last, almost equal with Timberwolves in fourth last.

- In overall Clutch plus minus, the top five teams are Hornets, Lakers, Blazers, 76ers and Cavaliers...the Celtics are equal fourth last with the Pistons.

5' 10" former point guard

Career highlight: 1973-74 championship, Boston Celtics

Career lowlight: traded for a washing machine

Honestly coming close against the Bucks is a major victory given what this squad has done the last couple of months.

It's the opposite of a victory.


Sure but this season isn't about real victory. That's been made very clear.

It has, but I'm not sure what this season is about.
