Three pointers destroy. San Antonio built that huge lead through three pointers. It’s forever a mirage. They always dry up and when they do the team that was living by them inevitably gets rattled and totally loses their way. Wake up Boston Celtics.
Like there are just normal bad seasons that just happen. Then there are occasionally clusterfuck cursed clown show season that pop up to emphasize bad decisions/choices you make in offseason(prior in this case)
Bad news: Garrett Crochet’s lat strain is a lot worse than they originally thought and he has “no idea” when he might be cleared to throw.

Also Fischer said earlier today that JB has been on heightened alert on rumors since the KD pursuit back in ‘22. I think if there were serious talks there won’t be a trail of rumors.
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s preferred landing spot is Miami, but he remains open to joining Boston, per @JakeLFischer
“Sources close to the process consistently say that they believe that Miami is at the top of Antetokounmpo's current wish list but likewise continue to whisper that the idea of landing in Boston is still in his thoughts somewhere.”

Sox swept the Tigers and followed that up with a 3-6 record.
Then they swept the Royals and have proceeded to go 5-10.
The Globe is reporting the GM isn't in trouble, and the owners are making trade calls offering to eat bad contracts.
Back to 10 games under .500. All's Well.
Brayan Bello makes it very clear he's done with the conversation about him starting or coming out of the bullpen.
"First of all, just stop talking about bullpen and starting games. I've always been a starter and when I've been successful as a starter, no one has questioned whether I have to be in the bullpen or starting games. So, starting from there, just stop that talk, I'm just having a bad season."
The last three teams to win Game 1 of the Finals on the road all went on to lose the series.
The last team to win Game 1 on the road and win the championship?
The 2004 Pistons.
So this is a lot teams passing up. So its asking price is still a lot. Giannis not willing 100% commit to an extension(yet) or the medicals aren’t great. It explains the lukewarm reports on this saga
Teams that are NOT expected to factor into the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade sweepstakes, per @JakeLFischer
