Evaluate the following phrase:

"The '23'24 Celtics are the best team in NBA history"

Rubric:

Superior / Outstanding	Agreeing completely while referring to Jayson Tatum as "GOATum".
Good / Exceeds Expectations	Agreeing completely without referring to Jayson Tatum as "GOATum".
Average / Proficient	Agrees, but includes caveats about it being perhaps too early to judge.
Below Average / Needs Improvement	Neither agrees nor disagrees. Rides the fence like a bitch.
Poor / Ineffective	Disagrees. Display of utter, rabid stupidity.

Celtics have been great but Tatum is getting carried by the supporting cast.

I'll generously put your comment in the "Average / Proficient" category.

Jayson GOATum season stats:

- ~27 ppg
- ~50% from the field
- ~37% from deep
- ~80% from the FT line
- ~9 rebounds per game

I want to see what team the Wizards can sucker into trading for Poole.

I want to see what team the Wizards can sucker into trading for Poole.

He is owed $95M over 3 years AFTER this year. He is nearly a negative asset at this point.

It's still surprising that the Wizards agreed to take on his contract.

3 more years left on that contract for $30-35M. It would need to be a salary dump of a trade, potentially with the Wiz giving draft compensation. Can't imagine a buyout is possible.

 

[ducky]

That’s maybe the worst contract in the league. Tip of the cap to the Warriors for getting out of that.

.....dont give them too much credit. They changed it out with a contract that is just as equally horrendous in the Draymond Green contract.

$25M a year guaranteed for 4 years for a 33 year old. When the fuck has that ever worked out in the NBA.

Green is still the glue that holds that team together when they are all healthy.

Plays defense, rebounds, good passer, etc.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Green also means more to GS than he would any other team in the League.

No excuses. They have to win this year

I concur.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I just can’t get into the NBA yet. Not sure why. Still watching Cavs games but normally I would be watching a lot of games. Still in football mode even though the Browns season seemingly has a clear ceiling

The best part about being a NYG fan is that I've been totally into the NBA season since early October.

I prepared you for this reality in August. I really think people should listen to me more here when it comes to the sport of football.

LOL.

lol... well, you were (at the least) mostly right of course...

... but the key injuries that the Giants endured took a tenuous situation and turned it hopeless.

Simply put: our roster had no margin for error (injury). And that fact really shows by this point.

How about KP's 6 blocks yesterday?

He's fit in perfectly with the Celtics.

He has been the perfect addition so far.
