    I could see that happening. If not this year, certainly next.

    Jrue Holiday will be a solid PG, not sure what their plans are with Eric Gordon and Tyreke Evans. Gordon should have little trade value, he's been shit there.

    Austin Rivers is gonna be a bust.

    Jeff Green is going to score. That's the guy. Humphries will bounce back some.

    And that will carry the Celts to ... a robust 30-35 victories.

    Jeff Green?

    That's hilarious, they won't top 30. And I'll wager on that.

    Career average of 13.6 in 32.4 MPG, maybe he'll jump up to 18 a game, but no way does he top 20.

    I don't think he'll get 20, either. But 18-19 is definitely a strong possibility. Someone has to score, right?

    Seeing as there has never been a team named the Pelicans, that's not a surprise.

    They're gonna surprise people this season.

    Some people that don't follow the NBA are going to be surprised there's a team called the Pelicans.

    If they don't follow the NBA why would they care?

    I get a confused look as a reaction sometimes when talking to non-NBA fans and mention that I'm a Thunder fan. They have no idea who that is.

    The FormerSonics ;)

    On my way home from work in NYC one night there was a guy talking to my coworker and I about basketball. He says, "Yeah, I've been a Thunder fan all my life."

    I asked him, "Oh, so you're only four years old?"

    He looks at me with a puzzled look and says, "Huh?"

    "Look dude, don't say you've been a Thunder fan your whole life, they've only been in OKC for four years, so you don't know dick about NBA. They were the Sonics before that."

    Him: "The Sonics, never heard of them."

    There is no way that exchange actually occurred.

    Yes it did. I can have the two other guys I work with who were on the bus verify it for me.
