I thought it was a good trade for the upside and their need for a distributor with size and athleticism. The fact that the result was a probable outcome doesn't necessarily mean it was a bad trade. It's still arguable that he was the only chance they had of winning the title.

Which is funny because Rondo is probably starting the All Star game this year

I remember reading an article that Rondo was in a film session (as a Celtic) and got so pissed off that he threw the remote at the TV, smashing it.

Sure the outcome being bad doesn't mean the trade was bad. However I believed the trade was bad then and that the "there's a chance" logic was specious in this scenario

The Noel acquisition was not lowkey imo.

I would assume something like this happens in like 1 out of 5 film sessions around the league

Yeah I mean I thought I was posting in the season thread. I take no responsibility for my low reading level.

I basically only work with small biotech/life sciences companies now. The last 3 I've worked with were tiny (1-6 employees), brand new and raising money in small amounts (under $1M). For a couple of them I wrote grant proposals to the NSF and NIH, so I guess I do technically get paid to read and write, just not here. LET ME BE DUMB HERE (and I don't work for big pharma).

EDIT: Right now

Tank wars really heating up. Gasol was absolutely pushing Gobert's **** in and would have won them the game but Memphis pulled him in the 3rd and sat him for the final 18 minutes to secure the loss.

Chicago/Orlando last night was like preseason NFL in the 4th quarter. Go at it 12th men!

Someone named Ryan Arcidiacono was the difference maker.

This is a pretty well-respected guy who works for Altitude, which is the TV station owned by the Kroenke's.. His timeline the last day or so is... interesting.
