Reposting here 'cause it was on the SBN main page rather than CB proper.

I guess there are two things to do on my list:

1) Go to NBA nerd night in Cambridge
2) Go to Staples and heckle Doc Rivers when he loses to the Celtics and Rondo lights up Chris Paul for a Quad Double (15 points, 12 steals, 13 rebounds, and 27 assists).
The beatings will continue until morale improves

Q_FBE,
 
When/where is NBA nerd night?  I've found some info about nerd night in general, but nothing about when it will be NBA related =/

Flannery is one of the best.  I was really excited to hear that SBN picked him up last year.  Great get.

Per the article:

Every Wednesday during the season, the true believers gather at Parlor Sports in the Inman Square section of Cambridge.
Wednesday is NBA Nerd Night, a phrase coined by Grantland's Kirk Goldsberry.

Agreed.
