    Austin Rivers to the Celtics

    Austin will go to the C's as part of the Jeff Green to the Grizzlies trade. The deal is not yet done but seems highly likely.

    USA Today reporter tweeted that Austin is actually going to the Clippers. That's...interesting.

    It's Boston. Dealin' Danny Ainge has the Celts perfectly positioned to make every draft selection for two years running and make a run at the playoffs in 2023.

    On a more positive note, Tyler Zeller will now have someone with whom to reminisce about college.

    It may not be an accredited one in the future and it may not have met for classes, but it was considered a university.

    The Celtics are to the NBA what UNC-CH is to academia: Both are living with multi-year failures at the highest levels of their programs and seem comfortable sinking to the lowest possible level in hopes of a comeback sometime in the distant future. At least the Celtics have Brad Stevens.

    Rome wasn't built in a day.

    Then again, Rome has not been relevant for 1,800 years.

    Not sure what I proved just there.

    His name reminds me of the joke Fuzzy Zoeller made when Tiger Woods first got famous as an amateur. (no, not that joke).

    Yep. It's pretty much just the Colorado River, the San Gabriel and the Pedernales.
