    Bill Simmons will get that same award in due time.

    Very few have Bob Ryan's credibility in the NBA, but Simmons knows the league and has plenty of sources inside the Celtics, which Doc alluded to. I'm sure Wilbon, who is close to Doc, will try to mediate at some point.

    Doc showed Bill up pretty big by calling him an idiot in front of the world.

    Bill won't let go of that for awhile. Poor Bill.

    Mel Kiper was called some nasty things, too, about 10-12 years ago.

    Simmons should stick to writing. He has no presence whatsoever on TV. ESPN did him no favors
    though sticking him with Magic and Rose. Simmons seemed intimidated by them.

    Funny how for one of worst drafts in a long time it was the second highest rated draft ever.

    Magic and Simmons are extremely close friends.

    Didn't Rivers go from Simmons' favorite team to his second favorite team? I seem to remember him being a Clippers season ticket holder.

    He is, yes. Or was until recently anyway. And apparently, they kissed and made up.
