Yep. Is Hump really so clueless as to wonder what's up?

He's been a great soldier, and I expect he can hang in there for these last few weeks, however.

Uh ... what 'clue' is Hump supposed to get?

There is zero benefit for any player to want to 'tank'.

If a player wants to win and feels like he can help his team do so - nothing wrong with that.


NBA Officiating - Corrupt?  Incompetent?  Which is worse?  Does it matter?  It sucks.

I'm told Humphries & Stevens had meeting after Phx. game to discuss him only playing 1:08 in 4th #CelticsTalk

....and?

the point I was trying to make was more should've been mentioned in the report. otherwise big freaking deal.

not blaming you at all. it just seems like there should've been more info to make this a story. I was under the assumption that stevens and hump would've had a discussion eventually.

humps just trying to get paid. tankings the way to go, but at least it looks like the team wants to at least try to win.

and either bass or humps has got to go, so might as well showcase one of them

Humphries: Tell Ainge to give me a fat contract and a starting job next season or I blow the whistle on this whole tanking scheme.

Stevens: Well golly gee whiz you don't have to do that...How about I leave you in the next game longer and let you get a hero shot.

Lol. TP

Maybe Stevens just wanted to dip his toes in the tank a little.

If the 4th worst spot is still up for grabs in April, Brad might cannonball into the tank for those last 8 games. It could be the Pressey, Johnson, Babb, Bass and Olynyk show!

Like Rondo said in the Globe, guys are playing for contracts. Humph isn't going to get paid if he sits on the bench. Of course he wants to play and show enough to get a good deal from someone.

Yep. Is Hump really so clueless as to wonder what's up?

He once thought Kim Kardashian loved him so what do you think is the answer to this question? Of course he is that clueless. Nice guy. Good baller. But clueless.
