Conference Finals:
Celtics were +3 in the series with Tatum on the floor. -30 when he sat.
They were -31 when Brown was on the floor in the series. And they were +4 for the minutes he was on the bench.

Butler had gathered and was in the upward motion. Horford's arm was on Butler's arm and his offhand was pushing him in the back at 3 seconds. Correct call.
Also, Butler got away with a double dribble right before this.

Just give the award to the guy with the highest salary then. No use in debating things every season.
Absolutely nobody in the league believes Marcus Smart is as good a defensive player as Rudy Gobert. That's why Rudy is on a supermax and Smart is making $19m a year.

Forget for a moment the content of what he says (that's a whole other issue) but Massarotti's delivery might be the most brutal in broadcasting.

Xander Bogaerts ground ball % has jumped from 46.6% last year to 51.5%.
His batting average on those ground balls has dropped from .346 to .264 year over year.
Hard hit % has dropped from 39.6% to 33.5%.

That was a locker room that continually claimed they were done taking games lightly and repeatedly failed to follow through on it.

“Hit for the cycle as a team”
In the second inning, the Rangers hit for the cycle as a team:
Josh Jung double
Travis Jankowski single
Marcus Semien triple
Corey Seager home run
Even without Adolis Garcia, this offense is devastating. And a 5-0 lead on the day the lost two of their biggest names is enormous.

Zero chance they're breaking them up.
One of the best 35 game runs in NBA history to end the season. 4th best road team ever by point diff. Best D in the league. Best offense since the deadline. With a coach in year 1.

This is why I plan to retire with dignity at a reasonable age.
It's not just some of the players who stick around the game too long.
The automated PA "strikeout whistle" that the Sox play when a Boston pitcher fans a batter at Fenway is bush league and annoying. Especially when Sox are losing (Yankees do this, too). Class it up, Sox. You are in fourth place, under .500. In no position to mock the opposition.
