Many years after passing on the opportunity to play for a team here in my ancestral homeland of Greece (did I mention I'm an idiot?), finally made it to Athens for the European Masters tournament.
A few from our Boston-based team stopped by the Acropolis. (I'm on the right.)

It is said that holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
They don't serve that libation at the Sultan of Stat's bar. So @DickLipe avoids the drama, offering a 6-pack from the Celtic rout in Philly that focuses more on PG than JB. ⬇️

It's easy, after the uneven start to his season, to focus on Mitchell Robinson's 6-6 shooting and 7 rebounds (4 on the offensive glass) in 18 minutes last night. ... But there was something more important and encouraging for the Celtics about his performance in Milwaukee. ⬇️

Like the Patriots earlier in the day, the Celtics fell behind a team from Wisconsin by 14 points in the first quarter.
Unlike the Patriots, the Celtics extricated their cranium from their posterior.
The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe, has your noteage from the win over the Bucks. ⬇️

How much of a romp was the Celtics' 119-80 win ove Charlotte? The Sultan of Stat even went for 15 points and 7 rebounds. (You have to look at the super secret box score, but it's there.)
The modest @DickLipe leaves out his heroics, but delivers his usual high-quality noteage. ⬇️

The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe, takes you on a tour of the Celtics' wobbly win over the Bucks. A 22-point lead turned into a late deficit before the Bostonians gathered themselves and avoided a bad loss.

Derrick White and Pete Crow-Armstrong chat before Celtics-Bucks. ... Probably discussing defensive technique or something.

I love election day for two major reasons: because a.) it's our opportunity to exercise the purest form of democracy and b.) it means an end to political ads on television.
(Maybe not necessarily in that order.)

The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe, dutifully files his noteage from the Celtics' unattractive loss in Houston... But if all you knew was that Jayson Tatum, Payton Pritchard, Derrick White and Sam Hauser combined to shoot 2 for 22 on 3-pointers, you could pretty much guess the rest.

The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe -- still on a sugar high from over-indulging in Halloween candy -- sends noteage you didn't know from today's Celtic victory in Orlando.
Featuring cameo appearances by Paul Pierce, Ed Macauley, Cedric Maxwell, John Havlicek and Cooper Flagg. ⬇️

And the last remaining undefeated team in the NBA is....... the Memphis Grizzlies.
Maybe Kyrie was right about the world being flat.
Will investigate and get back to you on that.

The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe, beats last call with noteage from the second Celtic victory over Chicago in five days.
Payton Pritchard, Jayson Tatum and Paul George get top billing, but there's also a shoutout to the Celts' three-headed pivot monster. ⬇️

Mitchell Robinson is a very large individual. It appears as if he's wearing shoulder pads.

Pretty sure Caleb Wilson had to get clearance from the tower at Logan before taking off to convert that lob.

Here is the Celtics' floor for NBA Cup games. ⬇️ Parquet element relegated to out-of-bpunds area.
Looking at some of my recent tweets, it appears I've become a court reporter. #dadjoke #sorry #canyoufinditinyourhearttoforgiveme

I've seen nothing to dissuade me regarding Hugo Gonzalez (@hugoglezz_).
He got a longer look Monday night, but even leaving aside his production numbers, he projects well with more opportunity. A Doberman on defense, and strong court awareness at the other end of the floor.

Haven't shared hoop thoughts in a few months, holding off while discussing some basketball opportunities outside of journalism. (At this stage, it's all about the right fit.)
Unencumbered for now, here's a Hugo Gonzalez belief that's been marinating in my alleged brain:

The Celtics did something for the first time in their history Monday night - ans something else for the first time since 2014. ... The Sultan of Stat, @DickLipe, has those answers and more from the blowout of the Bulls. ⬇️
