Comments from the Other Side - Thunder 2/12/26

I would much rather the Celtics have won that game but it was a good game nonetheless.  No White, Tatum or Vucevic and they led for much of the game and came very close to a win.  All that without 3 of our top 7 players.  I know OKC was missing 2 of theirs also but I think the players the Celtics were missing were more impactful.  Also,  last game of a road trip after crossing time zones makes a big difference.  And, the 2nd game in a row where the officiating inf...

Comments from the Other Side - Spurs 3/10/26

Spurs fans seem to be a decent bunch.  It was refreshing not to see constant insults and hate toward both teams players.  They gave the Celtics their due for how well they are playing and for not tanking when they very well could have.  I love how much they still love Derrick White.  Also love how many Celtics fans there were in the arena..  Too bad Jaylen flamed out and got ejected.  I know he's frustrated with the officials,  but he has to put team first an...

What We Learned from the Spurs win over the Celtics

The vibe was off from the start in this one. It almost felt like there had been too much buildup for it.
