Highlight: Rondo Leads The Break

I love this decision-making from Rajon Rondo. While leading the break, you can see him eyeballing Ray Allen, who runs the wing and spots up on the arc. The Sixers have a 1-2 disadvantage but are mostly concerned about Allen’s three balls, which allows Mickael Pietrus to make an unmolested baseline cut behind the defense. [...]

Fun Off-Season Trivia: 15,000 Points, One Team

Oh, Sporcle. It’s 9:45 p.m. on a Wednesday, there are dirty dishes in the sink, Roger Federer is playing at the U.S. Open and I’m supposed to assemble a new vacuum. But you’ve managed to rope me into spending another 15 minutes with you, as if you were a “Godfather” movie or an episode of “The Simpsons” from 1994.

Tonight’s installment: You’ve got 10 minutes to name the 50 NBA players who have scored 15,000 points for a single franchise. Obvious note: This includes players who have played for multiple teams as long as said players have scored at least 15,000 points for one of the teams on which they have played. 

My score: 47. Beat it, and you get a cookie. Get all 50, and you get two cookies . And remember: We’re on the honor code here.

Celtics-themed trivia: Boston has the most players on this list, with seven. Anyone who fails to get at least six is banned from CelticsHub, and I’m being generous to our younger readers by giving them even one mulligan. You should really get all seven. 

Enjoy.
