We dodged a huge bullet here. I like him as a player but man his injury history is really bad.

Am I the only one who is wondering if Lonzo is either trying get out of Chicago or retire altogether with an injury settlement?

I know that’s an extreme take but it just seems like he is perpetually having setbacks without ever really getting on the floor - just seems odd.

Sounds more like he has maybe arthritic problems with his knee? Reminds me of Amar'e

Apparently he was banging a team staff member. Cheerleader? Training staff? I need pics to determine what the length of the suspension should be

Some guys will cheat on anyone. He somehow got Nia long and cheated on her anyway. It feels extra dirty remembering how hard she was riding for him finally getting a head coaching job. She was also supporting him him extra hard all season long and especially during their finals run. Hopefully it is something like they have an open relationship or something.

I doubt it. He is probably just a trash husband.

Like the saying goes, for every hot chick, there's a dude out there who's tired of smashing her Joking aside, it happens. You're on the road all the time and you find yourself hanging with this other chick all the time and you kinda click... The difference is he's the coach of the Celtics. That job by itself is hard to keep. No amount of WAP should be enough to jeopardize that.

That Detroit pick might convey sooner than I hoped for

Oh, I get it....but DAMN!

Pistons have a pretty good roster...They are young in some areas but if they play D the way they did after the allstar break, they could surprise.

I know fraternization in the workplace could be problematic...but its wild, to me, that this could land him the same length of punishment as someone who was just guilty of racism

I'm sure there were stipulations in his contract. Do I think the punishment is a little harsh. Yeah. But he knew the risks. Similar shenanigans are part of the reasons Gersso Rosas got fired from the Timberwolves.

Goes to show you you'll eventually get bored of being with the same woman, no matter how hot she is.

I bet Ainge would have asked the Knicks for two of their protected first and IQ if they tried to deal for Bojan.

I'm sure they did for the Lakers too! Very strange trade IMHO

The Celtics better hope they did not ruin another players career. Like I said with Kemba last year when he was said to have minor discomfort. Knee injuries are serious business. There is too much running in basketball for people to not take them seriously. The way they had him playing months with a really bad knee is not good. Just like they had IT doing the same with a really bad hip.

Clean @ 9/23/2022 8:40 PM

This man knows the truth. Randle got a lot of credit for our good year but the real reason for it was Rose. We were out of the playoffs until we traded for Rose.

On a random note, every time I come into this thread scrolling past those Nia Long pictures put me in a better mood.
