WOJ Bombs seems to indicate a trade to Boston is fairly likely (and also got close on draft night)

Stephen A Smith was saying only LA or Cleveland today.

Woj is one of the most reliable names in sports.

Stephen is 50/50

Woj is probably the most reliable name in NBA circles, with Stein coming in second.

Stephen A. is not as much of a blowhard with sources as everyone thinks. Remember: he called LeBron to Miami and also called Doc to the Clippers a month or two before it happened.

That being said, always go with Woj.

It kind of is to me, but some people seem to think Steven A Smith is a legitimate reporter.

Okay, be honest..

If Moranis made this thread, how much backlash would you give him? Lol.  :angel: :police:

Woj is clearly more reliable, Stephen A. Smith probably throws darts on a dartboard and relays whatever sticks.

Alright, thanks. Sometimes it can be hard to tell who's joking and who's seriously lacking common sense.

But there's only a 10% chance of Stephen being 50/50

Woj is a journalist. He has sources that he protects and respects.

SAS is an entertainer. He has no sources because he dumps on anyone to get ratings.
Jaylen Brown will be an All Star in the next 5 years.

Don't really put too much stock in Woj with regards to the Celtics.

Put WAYYY less stock in Stephen A Smith's

I would give Moranis zero backlash if he made this thread I think cause it doesn't really fall under the boxes of what I find upsetting.

The reason I get in arguments with Moranis is that he consistently has a "if it is about Cleveland, Lebron or Philly it is Gold and will definitely work out" attitude and if "it is about the Celtics it is a poo sandwich and will not work out" routine. He is a smart guy that makes good posts on a variety of topics, which makes some of his posts all the more transparent and frustrating when he goes out of his way with the Cleveland/Lebron stuff (he is the only person I have ever seen make a serious effort to defend the decision as being for the charity of it). Fortunately he seems to have become less gungho on the 76ers the last few months.

SAS swings for the fences so when he gets it right it seems like he really gets it right.  He's had a lot of big misses though.  Said Durant was interested in the lakers and then Durant doesn't even give them an interview.

ThTs the first thing that springs to mind but I felt that way before the horford signing too. He's not awful, but he's not the king of Celtics reporting like he is most of the NBA.
