Comments from the Other Side - Knicks 10/24/25

 Another disappointing loss.  But, the Celtics have not played well or shot well in either game.  Lots of room to improve and I believe they will.  Knicks fans love a player one minute and hate him the next.  Whether they are playing good or bad, I love all the Celtics and pull for them so I don't understand how much they can hate a player when they aren't playing well.  I also don't understand how they can still push betting after what is happening.  Even th...

Comments from the Other Side - Knicks 10/22/25

Tough loss after leading by double digits to once again collapse.  But,  there were some good things to look forward to also.  Sixers fans go from expecting a triple double domination from Embiid to wanting him off the team.  They complained so much about how bad the Celtics game is because they just spam 3's.  The Celtics took just 3 more than the 76ers.  Also complaining about the refs rigging the game for the Celtics when the Celtics were called for 28 fouls wh...

Comments from the Other Side - Raptors 10/15/25

Good win to close out the preseason.  Next time they take the court, it will be for real against the 76ers.  Raptors fans are funny.  They trashed their own team way more than they did the Celtics.  Poor Scottie Barnes.  He really got a lot of hate from the fans.  And,  they sent a lot of love toward the Celtics, especially Pritchard and White.  I do think the Celtics are going to be fun to watch this season.  My favorites are in bold.  What ar...

Comments from the Other Side - Cavaliers 10/12/25

 I was amazing to me to see how few people were posting on the Cavs game threads.  Most of the forums that were very active when LeBron was back with the team are ghost towns without any posts for a couple of years.  Others have game threads but very few posters.  Very sad.  So, not a lot of comments today.  The Celtics looked good with the caveat that the Cavs starters didn't play.  I really like Minott, Boucher and Garza.  Simons can score and I don't ...
