Have a seat. Grab a drink. Relax.
How you feeling? Good? Good. You look good.
Is that a new sweater? It really looks nice on you. Probably because you've been working out.
Oh, hey, you know that thing we're doing on Sunday? The Celtics thing? Yeah... about that... it's going to involve a lot more Sasha Pavolovic than we thought.
"Most likely," Rivers said Friday when asked whether Pavlovic will start in lieu of Pierce. "We've [run him with the starters] this week so he can get a feel. We could change our mind on that one, but I would say most likely."
No no no no no... it's not what you think!!
Previously, Rivers had discussed the possibility of giving Marquis Daniels the Sunday start if Pierce can't go, but on Friday he expressed a desire to keep Daniels with the team's second unit. "I would love to keep the second unit intact, as much as I can," Rivers said. "I think they feel each o...

For Allen, there's no greener pasture
He could have shaken Danny Ainge’s hand last spring, thanked him for four good years in green and moved on to another city and another challenge.
