    I get that we’re all homers, but Simmons truly believes that Boston has had the worst injury luck in the entire league, because of Rob Williams and a few Marcus Smart games.

    i thought bill's terrible interview skills really came through on the Affleck/Damon pod. these two friends are vibing, giving insightful answers, and telling stories and Bill drops bangers like, "That's sort of like what happened with Tom Brady!" and, "That's sort of like what happened with Ja Morant!"

    Logan Murdock is TERRIBLE, after the 3rd or 4th time he kept mistakenly saying the Celtics won the Finals last year a real producer would've hit pause and said lets run that back

    Bill is so blatantly campaigning for Jaylen to make All NBA so the Celtics can pay him more

    10 minutes into the nfl pod with Mina and Danny Kelly and it feels none of these 3 know enough about Bryce young or cj stroud.

    bill in summation: QBs used to feel like 50-50 now it’s 40-60.

    What a bad inaccurate take.

    at some point an athlete hits a mark where they basically become undeniable even if you hated them most of the way

    Kobe winning back to back titles without Shaq
    LeBron after the 2016 Finals
    Brady winning a ring with a different franchise
    Tiger winning the 2019 Masters

    when someone takes away the "You only won so much because of _____" and then sticks it in your face, it's time to pack it up

    can throw the 2022 Houston Astros into the above list

    For a second I thought this had to do with J. Kyle Man and was one of the most insensitive tweets in history given that tate has been podding with him.

    I agree that if he didn’t play for the Celtics they wouldn’t talk about him nearly as much but I don’t think it’s because he left but that he was a crappy teammate and cancer like he seems to be everywhere he goes. Still, I wish they just wouldn’t talk about him.

    The 10 minutes of Ryen falling over himself to tell Bill how impressive his son is for playing varsity football was rough. Have some self respect Ryen.

    I don't think Bill's brain will be able to handle the fake Brown trades to come on the internet. He's going to believe with all his heart they're getting 6 first rounders for him.

    Well Ryen knows ball because he likes going to lsu games

    Also him saying it's really high level football and then Bill saying his kid weighed 155lbs during the season was great. That would be small even for oregon hs football

    Bill “I hate when people crown the MVP in the first half of the season.” Simmons has decided that Giannis has eliminated himself from the MVP race because of a bad game against the Celtics.

    but he DID clarify that Jayson Tatum has played his way back into the ever so prestigious and coveted 4TH PLACE spot in the MVP race, so congrats to him for that
