I think i remember these Tigers getting 8 runs on Wright last season, You're correct. July 26th, gave up 8 ER in 4.2 IP. All game the ball was just falling and just getting by everyones glove for base hits it was unbelievable!

Leon and Bradley have been great first 2 games of year; pray, that Bradley isn't hurt after the clutch SB Bradley got caught stealing man! Just a bad throw to 2nd base.

Isaiah showed up! He made all the right plays on offense he was getting to the basket and scoring and getting to the free throw line. And also kicking it out and finding open three point shooters but they couldnt hit them!

If Andy layed down a bunt down the 3rd baseline the game would be over.

The Lakers can get free agents to go there, even without trading picks. Lakers fans would laugh at the Celtics when Westbrook and Paul George both signs there because of location. If they can become good again, right now they can only get aging players like Deng by overpaying them. Ever since Howard left years ago they can't sign anyone. Unless they get a whole lot better they won't get George. The Lakers are so bad that players like Horford are signing in Boston and not even considering LA. They have a great history, but who was the last great free agent they got to sign there? Winning matters and the Lakers currently suck! Remember Demar Derozan didnt want to go there and its his hometown!

How far has Bradleys defense fallen this year? Or is it as good as ever and defensive statistics just can't properly measure it. About 2 weeks ago , people here were taking about how much better the Celtics have been defensively since his return. In stead of looming it up, I lazily said something like "im pretty sure the team started playing a lot better defensively before Bradley came back." And I still haven't looked it up, but I'm pretty sure some people's first reaction to reading what's coming next will be to default to that same thought. Take this nugget from BR end of year rankings for the leagues shooting guards: "Avery Bradley remains a confounding player whose advanced metrics don't match the eye test. The Boston Celtics clearly count on him to serve as a defensive ace alongside the sieve known as Isaiah Thomas, and his pestilent production forces ball-handlers into mistakes far outside the three-point arc. However, ESPN.com's DRPM doesn't just sneer at his defensive merits; it lists him as such a negative that his score tops only those earned by 37 of the 99 players at his position. Plus, the C's have strangely allowed an additional 3.2 points per 100 possessions while he plays. " I can tell you Devin Booker does not sniff 70 points if Avery Bradley was on him for 30 minutes.

What is the Deal with Bradley? How does he keep getting a bug over and over again? I find that pretty hard to believe, how come no one else on the team is getting sick? These guys share a locker room and practice full contact and everything. I feel like they want to take it really easy on his achilles even though there is no injury to report and they dont want to say he is resting.

The Laker can be worse next year. Lou Williams getting traded changed that team. They have a lot of young talent, but it's not that good right now. The Sun's lost Tucker, they could trade Chandler, Knight or Bledsoe. The Kings could easily be right there next year. The big kicker is the Nets have no reason to tank. Just look at this year, tons of teams are tanking and they are trying. Next year that could really hurt you. They have tons of cap space again, so they most likely add some players to help them. Without Lin going down for half a season they most likely don't have worst record this year. Then the Celtics have to trade the 2018 pick and get in this years Lottery because its such a deep draft right?

Yes Bulls twice... they end home vs Bulls, then at Celtics and at Bulls... day off between each game... I don't like that they seem to have their mind set right... makes next year less likely to be a disaster.... hopefully, they can trade Lopez expiring deal Yeah there's a good chance we're not getting a top 3 pick from them next year. I still think it lands in the top 10 though, that roster sucks big time and it would take some serious non-Nets like deals to make it better. There's a chance, but not a good one. Sadly I don't think we're getting Michael Porter next year. Im not sure! The Lakers and the Suns have more players that will be better next season. The Nets are the only team that can get worse. They are by far the least talented. Who do you think will have the worst record?

The other possibility is that Chad Ford is a ______ [fill in the blank]. Tool Bag! He is a full on Snap-on Tool!

Well I think that's the shocker. I wasn't high on the Brown or Yabu pick, but loved the Zizic pick. Zizic put up better or similar numbers as Jokic and Nurkic in the same league at the same age. Thing is Brown was seen as a long-term project and has looked a lot better than I would have thought. He has a long way to go, but has already made major strides from last year in college. Ford is using Pelton's projections on Yabu to rank him so high, yet even Pelton doesn't have him in top 10. Yabu is the real shocker and I would be very happy to be wrong about him. I have to see if I can find his recent D league game online. I want to see if he is in shape, because he looked like Sullinger in Summer League. In a draft that was epic for the depth it had, it would be amazing to have 3 of the top 10 players and having Brown being the third best player. Celtics owner was on the radio and said they are keeping track of body fat and he is doing good.

Pelton and Ford look at Rookies from draft this year and rank them based on long-term potential. The shocker is that Ford ranks both Yabu and Zizic ahead of Brown and Pelton ranks Zizic before Brown. Thats crazy. That means the Celtics did a hell of a Job in this draft because Brown is a really good player.

Good pitchers help themselves out there by landing in a good fielding position as well and it looks like Groome does just that.
