BWV posted:Hey this is Murph calling in on a mobile. Are the Celtics the worst number 1 seed in NBA history? Thanks guys, I'll take my answer off the air. It's probably the 2003 pistons. But yes, they are awful.

The Celtics are the worst No. 1 seed in NBA historyquote:Boston's point differential of plus-2.7 and net rating (points per 100 possessions) of plus-3.1 are the worst marks for a No. 1 seed since the 1978-79 Supersonics. This shouldn't surprise anyone, Boston had a choice at the deadline to trade one or both Nets picks for help, or flame out terribly and build for the future

quote:I was sitting close to the Celtics bench on Tuesday. The negativity was palpable. Players were bickering with each other; Thomas and Smart were arguing on the floor and in huddles; Smart flipped off someone in the crowd. Terry Rozier’s locker was recently moved away from Jae Crowder’s. I wasn’t able to confirm why, but it’s an odd adjustment to make so late in the season. No wonder the well-oiled Chicago Bulls are winning. Team chemistry > x! I love how Rondo gets all the praise for being the true playoff leader Boston is lacking.

Jokes aside Rondo has been legit great this year in the locker room. He's lucky he has a complete push over in a coach, who is willing to be a punching bag for his sideswipes. But He would literally on his off days go down to the D-League and work with like Bobby Portis, and Denzel Valentine and Jerian Grant. He caped for and worked with the young guys motivating them and didn't constantly throw them under the bus like everyone else was willing to do. Rondo is legit the reason this Bulls turnaround happened and I am shocked as loving hell by it. He's also playing defense for the first time in like 5 years

I feel like the Bulls have already exceeded expectations, so if they lose a game 7 in the first round it's still a victory. What I mean is, 100 more years of GarPax

And they won't be fired anyway so might as well at least have fun when the captain steers the boat into the iceberg. Have a snowball fight or something. Jimmy's probably getting a lifeboat off of the ship. But oh well.

But in Dallas Rondo had nowhere near the freedom he has here. Carlisle is not a coach that is going to be ok with letting Rondo play how he wants to(which probably is the right call for his team and his coaching style) Hoiberg is a pushover.

Minnesota paid KG 10m last year to be a player coach, Chicago realized how much it helped and did the same thing. Garpax secret genius

Im assuming you are talking about the 2004 pistons, an actually good team who were the #3 seed, and won a title. Not the 2003 pistons, who were a garbage team for bad people and were the 1 seed and sucked.

From almost being kicked off the team on Rondo Bobblehead to this. I wonder if Wade realizes a big factor in them making the playoffs was him going down near the end of the season.

Its weird to read this thread for three pages where it is predominantly talk about Eastern Conference teams. I mean, its exciting, and anything can happen, but does anyone think this year isn't going to be pretty much Golden State Warriors (50%), San Antonio Spurs (25%) or Cleveland Cavaliers (20%)?

It's not even a juicer it's just a bag of juice that costs more than whatever already overpriced bottle or carton of juice you can buy at Whole Foods. At this point you're just another juice hawker. Probably should have just launched a "curated" monthly juice box if you want that subscription money.
