NBA Season 2021-22

If we kept Bane in the Draft he would've been the best of the three players we drafted. I realize if we did he'd probably be sitting on the bench next to Pritchard and Nesmith but it still stings.

As someone who was convinced that Draymond Green was a future star pre-draft, trust me, you have to let it go.

It's not like Bane is a game changer. He wasn't even the best player we could have drafted last year. In a vacuum, gimme Haliburton, Maxey, Cole Anthony and Saddiq Bey over Bane. Haliburton wasn't available at #14, but I bet we could have traded up for him if we wanted to. Fwiw, all these guys are younger than Bane.

Wanna talk about missed opportunities? Ainge had traveled to Greece to scout Giannis, yet he passed on him on draft night to select Olynyk.

Think the East versus west debate is getting close to the point of no return. East has had way more injuries and covid and is a season high 14 games over the season. We are not like 8 games in anymore. About 20-25% of season in so far. Sorry for those on the other side

The East is 37-32 against the West at this point in the season.  The gap keeps shrinking it is not going the other way.  There are 5 games tonight and the West is favored in 3: GS at Det, Chi at Den, Tor at Sac with the East favored in the LAL at Bos and OKC at Mil games.  However, there are 4 games on Saturday and the East should be favored in at least 3 if not all 4, but there are 2 more games Sunday in which the West should be favored in both.

Yeah, but we actually took Bane at 30 and trade him away for two future seconds... Bane was just the kind of player that we could've used. He's a double digit scorer with abs and assists.

Would Bane be playing much with Celtics? Probably not

Would Bane be playing much with Celtics? Probably not

Would he even be on the Celtics? There is zero guarantee that Ainge drafts Bane if he wasn't trading him elsewhere. If the C's kept that pick there's every reason to believe the pick could have just as easily have been Maledon or Tillman or Oturo.

I have them at 8 over here. Is this incorrect? https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/east-vs-west-nba-records-2022
This is higher than it was a week ago. What site are you using?

Their actual record.  The East is 5 games over .500, the West is 5 games under .500.  37-32 is the 5 game difference in standings.

Again this site has them as 37-29. It may be inaccurate, so again, what site are you using. Answer is time with out become a complete egotistical jerk. This site very well could be wrong/outdated but would like to know an easier place to look without the pointless attitude.

I will say again, and this isn't me being a jerk, it is the actual standings.  The East is 119-114 on the season.  The West is 110-115 on the season.  The 5 game difference is thus the difference in their record in the head to head match-ups. 

https://www.espn.com/nba/standings/_/view/vs-division

69 games, East has won 37, West has won 32

And if you are going to site something to call someone a jerk, you probably should make sure it is accurate.  The site you are using has completely ignored Toronto.  Toronto is 0-3 against the West, and that is the difference.

[Donoghus]

Enough with the p*ssing match you two.

[celticsclay]

Fair enough

True but he was a perfect fit for this team. I would've taken with either the 14 or the 26. I would rather have Bane on this tam than Smart. A backcourt of Bane and Schroder would've been very dynamic.

Tillman would have been a great pick too. I also am not one to give up on Pritchard and Nesmith very quickly. They have absolutely sucked this year, but guys like Avery Bradley, Terry Rosier and Timelord didn't exactly light the world on fire after 1.2 seasons, so I hold out hope they can turn things around.
