I follow his tweets and read his articles because he optimizes what is wrong with most NBA fans. Everything his team does is so great, everything the other team does is terrible. He had no problems when Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce teamed up, but he has a huge problem that LeBron James/Wade/Bosh teamed up.
He sees nothing wrong when the Celtics get 90% of the calls, but move it closer to 50/50 and he wants the Ref removed for the game. He says Dwight Howard needs to stop complaining and deserves his techs, but when Paul Pierce gets thrown out for cussing and headbutting another player he wants to scream and shout that the refs are killing the game.
When his team loses a series because one of their four best players is hurt he harps on that player being hurt as the reason. Another team has their second best player out and he ignores that fact completely.
So anyway, it makes it so much sweeter to watch Celtics lose. Though we will see if it continues.
