Donald and Robert Sarver are our bad ones but that still doesn't take away the fact that red was like a papa to Bill Russell and drafted the first ever black player.

Tatum's 247 points are the most ever by a Celtics player in their first 8 games.

For a franchise as historic as Celtics, that's impressive. Tatum doing goat things

It is 8 games dude.

If he averaged over 30 for 8 seasons and won 5 rings, then you might have something to talk about.

……and you will very rarely hear a black person denounce their fuckery.

.....out of fear.

We have some serious soul searching to do in my community.

The thing that disgusts me most is the Holocaust denials.

Kyrie's little documentary tweet might have unearthed that school of thought for the mellinials.

But, I heard that shit in the 80's.

Every year of school, from1st grade to 12th, we took a required trip to the museum of tolerance.

My Mother not being a militant lunatic and those trips is.probably what saved me.

WTF is wrong with these folks?

That museum of tolerance is quite an experience. I don't know if they still do it, but when I went they would give you a card with a persons name and short bio. Then, at the end, you'd find out what happened to them.

Kevin Durant wants Nets to 'move past' Kyrie Irving incident

KD calls the fallout of Kyrie's antisemitic nonsense an "unfortunate situation" and that it "just sucks all around for everybody and hopefully we can move past it"

"I ain't here to judge nobody or talk down on nobody for how they feel, their view or anything. I just didn't like anything that went on. I feel like it was all unnecessary. I felt like we could have just kept playing basketball and kept quite as an organization. I just don't like none of it."

Keep quite as an organization and ignore Kyrie's racist crap?

Hey KD...

View attachment 313155

I get what he's saying, I don't think anyone wants to be dealing with this kind of crap.

But Kyrie keeps doing and saying this crap publicly and KD is his most prominent teammate and is supposed to be a leader, so he's going to be asked about it.

KD needs to learn that it's okay to say something like "He's my teammate and my friend, but on this, I believe he is wrong". Saying what he said makes me wonder if KD agrees with him on some level.

They scored 37 points in their last game vs the Pels and 41 vs the Nuggets.

LOL.

I mean, they are NBA players, they're going to have periods of time when the shots fall. The difference is that it's not sustainable.

The 3 point shooting has gotten better, doesn't mean they don't still need shooters. They're still at 27%, the worst in the league.

I know.

Last night they lost but they still shot a lot better than their season %>

Maybe. If he stays in that role, keeps playing well, the Lakers don't trade him and they move into the top 5 in the playoffs...he'd definitely be on the short list.

Problem is, there doesn't appear to a way for the Lakers to keep him and add the shooting they need to be contenders,

@tlance

just checking in...still time to go...

who would you rather have? Harden or Allen? lol.

"In 3 years Harden will still probably be the best player in the deal and LeVert and Dipo will still be better than Allen." -January of 2021
Man I love this team.

nice that Mitchell and Garland could take some time to give their sprains some time to heal before the Lakers game on Sunday.

Will be interesting. LeBron just shat the bed and he usually comes back strong after that- and he always gets up for the Cavs.

Cant wait for the game Sunday night. Hopefully Mitchell and Garland are ready to go.
Love the 3:30 Cavs game with no Browns to annoy me.
