They have a point though. Lillard is saying he only wants to go to Miami, but of all the other realistic destinations there’s only one city he’s specifically pointed out with a “No”. Boston.
And unless he gives a reason why he won’t come here, there’s going to be speculation.

I love Felger and Mazz. Great entertainment and sometimes have great takes. Not the most knowledgeable guys on the NBA though.

Wow. That thread is amazing. Part of me wants ESPN to hire Felger. Partly so he goes away, and partly to see the chaos he’d cause as a national figure.

Ironic he says it’s embarrassing when he’s probably one of the most embarrassing people in Boston media.
BoboBaggNz
Felger is legit so committed to the bit that I’ve grown to respect it lmao. Bro is the Ben Shapiro of Boston sport media
daft_dunkwwwolfey
Yeah one thing I had to learn becoming a celtics fan is that the boston media is weirdly one of their biggest haters out there 😅

You know it’s bad when people with heat flares are defending the Celtics and getting upvoted

Wtf if he talking about?

Felger will always be a Flyover State moron.
Sorey, not sorey.

Pretty sure Brad can call the Blazers at literally any instant now and seal a deal for Dame. But I can speak for a majority of Celtics fans when I say we don’t want that dude in here. The way he has handled himself this offseason is reminiscent of Kyrie and we don’t want any more of that clownery here again.

I still want to know why he shaves his eyebrows.

I dont think this take makes that much sense. We arent a premium destination for most players, like we arent miami, LA or brooklyn (i guess this has to be put up there because of harden, kyrie durant?), but we are the next tier. We signed all star hayward, got kyrie to agree to come here when he was high value, signed horford. All big FA signings or name dropped trade requests. Not a bad haul. At least as good as chicago, better than atlanta or dallas, and way better than all the small markets.
Dame ONLY wants miami. Its not anywhere but boston, its nowhere but miami.

Are you guys nuts? He’s completely right. Both Dame and people in the media have laughed about the prospect of Dame going to Boston. Why is this the case? It’s a major issue.

I love this post and everything that it stands for lol

Why felger and maz are on tv is beyond me

Only thing “embarrassing” about Boston is the sports talk media personalities like Felger
raylui34
Felger is one of the worst human beings ever

That guy is everything wrong with Boston sports and sports media
hotChihuahua69
Everybody knows why…
Couple guys were in here last 2 weeks detailing what’s wrong…
And I’ll add to their post:
Many don’t want to admit but the Ime debacle by Brad Stevens is resonating with many at every level…
Some may take a chance but many are walking away from a contender to play elsewhere… Even to non-contenders…
Valuable-Baked
Mazz doesn’t want Dame near his car and now they’re upset he’s not coming to town?

Felger outside of hockey talk is one of the most idiotic Boston radio personalities there is. He watched probably 5 minutes of basketball a year and feels like he’s qualified to comment on it.
Lillard doesn’t want to come here because Boston doesn’t have the nightlife like Miami and all of his friends tell him Boston is racist. And because he’s never actually had to visit he believes it. If he was traded here it’d be another Garnett situation. Guy doesn’t want to come here but then ends up loving it

Would suck to lose Felger in Boston, him and mazz can be annoying but who else would you listen to?
WEEI is about as interesting as watching paint dry.
ProofSinger3638
Im lost. Why is this whole thread hating on Felger?
He is on the players side in this debate. He is asking why players have a problem with us, talking about AD’s dad saying we aint loyal. Talking about KD/Kyrie saying we racist and people don’t wanna come here. Or Jaylen Brown stuff, about how he doesn’t love the city. Theres plenty more examples
he’s asking what is it about us that players dont like? He is talking about the city having a problem….which we do….and everyone acknowledges this anytime a thread about boston racism being brought up. Everyone in here agrees the fans and the people here got some attitude problems when threads about it are posted.
soooooo why is this just felgers an asshole thread? Ya’ll agree with everything he’s saying right now lol

Curran is a hack too, but yea Felger is useless
