What did you think of Simons?

Chad Finn @chadfinn.bsky.social · 2h

Yeah, Joe confirmed this with all of his comments today. He said he didn’t realize how much the media loves basketball too. Said he wished everyone could go out for a beer afterward. It was a great day and good for everyone.

Gonna have to get you to the next one, Tom.

Anfernee Simons is going to score a bunch of points, but his decision-making is about 177 degrees from Jrue Holiday’s.

He got a good head start working here in college.

They used to call him The President when he was with the Cs.

No idea. So many moving pieces with opt-outs and such. I know Breslow wants an athletic team, but they need a genuine middle-of-the-order power hitter.

Yeah, he's the real deal. Everything they could have wanted.

This was really enjoyable. Was hoping Tim would write about what it was like to cover Alonso, and how he might fit here.

Alonso, one of the preeminent sluggers of the decade, is looking for a new contract and perhaps a new team.

NEW @celticsclns.bsky.social - That media game was ugly, but it reminded us how much we love this game, why we got into media, how much of a machine #NBA staffs are. And gave us *some* bonding w/ Joe

Thanks to Jr. @celticsnba.bsky.social Academy for putting it on.

What’s it like having your offseason contingent on opt-out decisions? On 310 to Left, Craig Breslow compared the undertaking - and the offseason at large - to a Choose Your Own Adventure plot sequence. youtu.be/Y319kqu2BfQ?...

If you enjoy schadenfreude, @byjayking.bsky.social's first person account of a media pickup game against the Boston Celtics coaches is off the charts. Poor Jay. 🤣

How Joe Mazzulla turned a normal day covering the Celtics into my worst nightmare

What was supposed to be a friendly pickup game between the media turned into utter humiliation at the hands of the Celtics coaching staff.

I was invited to play, but my doctor says my Achilles looks like a coffee cup that shattered and was glued back together. So I knew better. Went over to watch and to say hi to some people.
