Celtics say yes. We got the anti thibs. I suppose this is the way. I'll buy in if it works. Seems to be working but we'll see if they turn it over or go cold

Re: NBA Regular Season 2023-24 f./ NBA In-Season Tournament 2023-24

Agreed with yall. Seems like there should be a way to use this metric to objectively measure your value while on/off the floor. Perhaps subtract the amount the team actually wins(loses) by and adjust for minutes played. That number wouldnt depend on who youre playing with. And that should equal bett...

That's your word, better. So it doesn't measure better. Neither does ppg, necessarily. Not quite sure what it measures but it does seem to identify value in players that might not be highlighted in traditional stats

Re: NBA Regular Season 2023-24 f./ NBA In-Season Tournament 2023-24

As for White, hes probably not the first or second off the floor in a blowout but the Celtics are doing the blowing out. So it would be a negative to your plus minus to play more garbage minutes cause teams go from down 25 to down 15 when the Cs take the foot of the pedal in the 4th. Cs also have no...

All good points but interesting that White is the highest on the Celtics. No one would say he's the best but he might be the most important and for whatever reason plus minus recognizes that.

Re: NBA Regular Season 2023-24 f./ NBA In-Season Tournament 2023-24

Derrick White leads in plus minus so I'd say yes. Valid. Is Derrick White and jrue holiday the best guard combo in NBA? The highest paid player in the league is the 5th best starter on his team.

Employers do not want to pay employees healthcare any more than they want to match their 401k. Perhaps some tax benefits but no way that offsets the cost of the employee benefit.

What does one do when they get admitted to a particular program and then decide that's not what they want to do with their lives like 97% of teenagers.

Not sure. I dont think Biden would lose many PA votes to Romney maybe 5-15% and I think Romney would take probably 15-20% off trump. Think Biden would win PA with about 38-40% in that scenario

Agree with all that. You almost have to convince OBrien to stay here. Hope its a stop gap until the right guy can be identified. Not the worst way to move on from a legend... but I think they should have held on another year. Some GM going to take a swing on a qb cause they can with no consequences....
