Anyone know why they think a midget ball hog will solve their current issues?

I don't follow the NBA in any way, but:

1. I thought trading in division was not a smart thing to do.
2. Again, don't follow, but IIRC Robinson >>>>>>House

Playing one-on-one, sure. But House is a much better option coming off the bench. He'll spot up and look to pop quick threes only when he can get an open look. Nate Rob likes the ball in his hands. A lot. And while KG and Allen aren't exactly lighting it up, it would be a mistake to try to fix the offense by introducing a log jam to the mix.

Also, I don't see how a 5'7" two guard fits into the C's defensive philosophy.

I have no clue how this will help long-term (unless Nate learns to not be selfish), but the Celtics will be running a ferocious fucking fast break when Rando and Robinson are on the court at the same time.

Edit: Also, when The Cs play Chicago in the playoffs, they'll have someone other than Rando to punch that elf Heinrich in the face (assuming Kirk isn't traded).

As a theoretical Knicks "fan," please take Krypto-Nate off our hands. He is maybe the most annoying and overrated player on a roster full of exceedingly annoying and overrated players.

I wonder what brain-type Robinson has.

That midget ball hog is the only missing player from last year's NCAA tournament team. I'll leave the rest to you, pal.

He won't. But he'd certainly be an upgrade over Eddie House. The Celtics need to turn Ray Allen's corpse/expiring contract into something more useful if they want to get past the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Yes, because that is the reason this team stinks.

how very oj of you - declaring the fight is over because its your opinion...

p and s - i have no problem with you calling the celtics "us" i only have a problem with you calling BU hockey "us" after spending football season and bball threads calling BC "us"

*i respect you and recognize that board judge (and not some hackneyed b0ard judge) would probably rule against my pronoun suggestions


Comparing me to OJ? Like a knife through my soul.

Nate Robinson is an awful fit on the Celtics. Not sure what Danny was thinking on this one.

TW has no hatred of Ty Rice. TW would like to see the first PG at BC since Louis Hinnant arrive soon. TW doesn't enjoy watching BC basketball, win or lose, when one clown dribbles at half court for 35 seconds and then jacks a three.

TW makes a good point. (Though admitedly I really never liked Rice and was happy to see him go)

Back to the point at hand (sorry). It looks like it went through. House + Walker + Giddens for Nate + Landry. I'm not thrilled by the trade, but I can't wait to see what happens when Nate and Rajon are on the court at the same time.

I'm guessing it'll lead to a bunch of failed alley oops.

The real tragedy about this trade is that my bar trivia team, "Dr. Eddie House", will have to come up with a new name.

Something makes me thing you're not going to be a huge Reggie Jackson fan by the end of his tenure at BC.

Your bar trivia team name was the equivalent of a Chris Berman punny nickname. C'mon man. You're better than that.
