Lebron. I don't hate Lebron but i genuinally don't like what he stands for.  His sour grapes stuff even when winning is just sad to me.  I don't like that mindset in general of showing up the haters.  A lot of the time it's just ignorance on his part.

The contrast between this and Lebron post game is absurd. Theyve also had similar numbers of haters. Its all we with tom and the only I stuff he talks about is how he made mistakes.

I had the misfortune of meeting Kevin Garnett once. He is a truly horrible person. But he was one of my favorite players and I cheered for him anyway.

If LeBron James signs here I will dance without stopping for a full week, because it means we're going to the NBA Finals next year. I'm not writing that to disparage you because we care about different things and that's okay. It's just that I would consider LeBron on the Celtics to be the best thing that could possibly happen.

I caught a couple minutes of Lebron's post game comments.  He was saying things like: "Against all odds", "I don't know why we have to take the hardest road." "I don't know why the man above gives me the hardest road.", "Instead of asking why me...".  That's all I could handle.

What is he saying here?  It sounds like he's trashing his teammates.

Just say NO to Bender! Bad workout in Israel and hasn't impressed so far.
Although I did hear that he completely annihilated the chair in a game of HORSE!

Care to elaborate on your meeting with Garnett?

My favorite part was when he said his teammates "allowed him to lead them". I'm sure he thought he was giving them a compliment.
"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

I  have a much nicer happier smile than Lebron I know that much. I also get some black people are dealing with oppression that is deep seeded.  I get all that stuff.  But he's not the only person who has dealt with ignorance in  his life.

He is just spewing ignorance himself.  Some people aren't.   I just can tell the difference.

He uses people who aren't like he thinks they are a lot of the time.  So do his fans. I can't stand that culture in general of one upping the other guy.   

Hey Lebron you just won a championship wake up. Why tarnish it with bs like that.

Ha.. the "hardest road"... Please please please take your talents to the west Mr.James and see if you would even have got past the Spurs, OKC, Clippers or GS in earlier rounds.
I still consider all 4 to be superior teams to Cleveland this season, regardless of the fact they just won the title.

I hate Lebron because hes a beast and hes killed us in the past. hes also an ass, but so are plenty of guys I love. If Lebron signs here, Im all aboard the Lebron train, but its fair to look at his post game actions and compare him to another all time great in Boston.
In fairness, in this interview he shows a decent amount of class.

Oh boy, that's a long list. Off the top of my head...

Love, Okafor, Anthony, Whiteside, anything Lakers, J.R. Smith, Josh Smith, Howard, Jamal Crawford, Rondo, Jabari Parker, Waiters, Monroe...

I'm sure there are 5-10 more, aside from the overpaid role-players.

Eff them. Eff all of them.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

This should be fun.

Take a look at the semi-reasonable draft picks and proposed trades (Noel for #3 is not reasonable) and which single one do you not want? Okafor? Butler? Cousins? Jaylen Brown? Bender? Who is the one guy that if we get on draft night you'll throw a shoe at the TV and why? Is it because Okafor's advanced metrics? Is it because there's so little game tape on Bender? Hield's age? Murray's athletics? Cousins' attitude?

My choice is...

Who: Jimmy Butler.

Why: It has nothing to do with Butler's game. I think he's a fine player. It has nothing to do with his attitude. I like that too. It has most everything to do with the price. The common trade idea is Butler for #3 plus Bradley (often plus other 1st round picks too). Except Butler isn't a massive, team-changing upgrade over Bradley - at least not worth the #3 (plus rumored other picks) and the additional cap room. I worry about him causing the lane to get clogged for IT. I worry about his long-term durability. I think for what he is likely to cost we can spend those assets elsewhere on a bigger position of need to get a better incremental upgrade in the front court. Now if we got him cheaper I'd be a happy chap. But if not...here's the SHOE!

I don't want to see us draft a project like Brown or Murray.  Bender scares me too. 

Any trade for a starter caliber player who can score it.  That's what I want.

I would lose all control of my bodily functions if the C's got Kanter.  Throw a shoe at the TV if they acquired Okafor.
