Raiders don't get their pick in on time. Fernando Mendoza to the Jets.

Flyers goalie Dan Vladar posted a shout out to help his team take a 2-0 series lead over the Penguins. #NHLBruins traded Vladsr for a 3rd round pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, then traded that to draft both Cam Spicer (now w/Western Michigan) & Frederic Brunet (now w/Providence Bs).

Despite the postseason success the #Celtics have enjoyed, they have 6 players who have never won a series in the NBA Playoffs. This includes a 15-year vet:

☘️ Nikola Vucevic
☘️ Ron Harper Jr.
☘️ Hugo Gonzalez
☘️ Dalano Banton
☘️ Amari Williams
☘️ Max Shulga

AJ Brown will soon have his own #Patriots No. 11 jersey, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Schefter writes, "multiple sources say they believe Brown and the Patriots are likely to become a tandem." It would take place on/after June 1. No word on the #Eagles compensation.

At least we know who to blame for the loss! 😀

In Game 1, the Boston Bruins led 2-0 with 8 minutes left in the 3rd period. They led 2-1 with 4:30 to play. In the span of 52 seconds that turned into a 3-2 deficit and the Buffalo Sabres held on to win 4-3. A stunned Bruins team will has a lot to answer for. #NHLBruins

The Bruins were predicted by oddsmakers to finish with the 5th-fewest points in the NHL this year. Instead, they are battling the Sabres in Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Boston might be playing with house money, but may as well continue trying to defy the odds! #NHLBruins

Charlie McAvoy of the Boston Bruins finished 10th in the NHL this season among defenseman in points, but was only 54th among defenseman in shots on goal. Would both McAvoy and the Bruins benefit from him peppering the net more?

#NHLBruins #Bruins #StanleyCupPlayoffs

Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet follows up the worst start of his career by allowing 5 earned runs in 5 innings against the Tigers. Red Sox are lucky the Bruins and Celtics are in the playoffs and the Boston Marathon is tomorrow. Distracts some of the fan base from what is happening.

Game 1 of the NBA Eastern Conference quarterfinals:

Boston Celtics - 123
Philadelphia 76ers - 91

#Patriots #NEPats

No team has won an NBA Championship without being among the 4 favorites (Vegas odds) when the NBA Playoffs began that season since the 2011 #Mavericks. This should come as encouraging news to the 4 favorites to win the 2026 NBA Finals: the #Thunder, #Spurs, #Celtics & #Nuggets.

The NBA Rookie of the Year Award winner has never had a lower per game average than a runner up in points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals. However, Kon Knueppel trailed Cooper Flagg in all 5 categories this season, yet leads on publicly announced ballots.

#NBA #NBAAwards

As for #Patriots Mike Vrabel, did he do anything wrong as far as his job/employer are concerned? If not, there should be no punishment for him either. If either of them did anything improper from a marital standpoint, that's for them & their spouses/families to figure out. (2/2)

Dianna Russini resigned from The Athletic. She was very good at her job. Despite reading her resignation letter, it's unclear why she resigned if she did nothing wrong. Was there a clause in her contract about socializing with people she covers? (1/2)

Boston sports fan problems: Hoping that Game 1 of Celtics vs. 76ers (1 PM) does not overlap with Game 1 of Bruins vs. Sabres (TBA) on Sunday.

#Boston #Celtics #Bruins #NBAPlayoffs #StanleyCupPlayoffs

Per Shams Charania, NBA & NBPA allow Luka Doncic & Cade Cunningham to qualify for postseason awards despite not meeting minimum criteria. Celtics star Jaylen Brown seemed a lock for 1st Team All NBA but now faces competition for the final spot (SGA, Jokic, Wemby & Luka seem to be locks).

And sadly another season begins with no Boston team

From 1980 to 1982, the Boston Bruins played the Buffalo Sabres in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and the Boston Celtics played the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA Playoffs every year. This season marks the first time for both matchups in the same year since 1982.

The #Warriors eliminated #Clippers in the NBA's Play-In Tournament, thanks in part to the play of two former #Celtics. Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford combined for 34 points on 13 of 20 shooting (7 of 13 from 3), with 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, and a steal. #NBAPlayoffs

The Boston Celtics have won 83 games in the NBA playoffs since drafting Jaylen Brown in 2016.

The Philadelphia 76ers have won 83 games in the NBA playoffs since Dr J, Julius Erving retired in 1987.

#Celtics #76ers #NBAPlayoffs #JaylenBrown #DrJ

Why doesn't anyone else seem to love Rueben Bain Jr. as much as I do?

The #Magic & #76ers play tonight in the NBA play-in tournament. Winner gets No. 7 seed & plays the #Celtics. Loser plays the #Hornets for the No. 8 seed.

Better to try and win and face Boston, or lose and take their chances with Charlotte and then the #Pistons? #NBAPlayoffs

The #Bruins 1st round opponent in the Stanley Cup Playoffs will be the #Sabres in a best-of-7. Buffalo won the Atlantic Division, while Boston earned the top Wild Card spot. The Bruins won 3 of 4 during the regular season, with 2 of those victories coming in OT.

Predictions?

It is Jackie Robinson Day across MLB. Hard to ignore that it took the Boston Red Sox 12 years after Robinson's debut with the Dodgers to finally have a black player on their roster. Shoutout to the late Pumpsie Green, who made his debut for Boston in 1959.
