Doc’s Daily Rants: Weekend Edition.

February 28, 2016

 Donnie Sweets will have a lot to ponder in the next 24 hours.  1. To call Steph Curry ridiculous would be an understatement. He is the best shooter we’ve seen since Larry Bird and when it’s all said and done, he could be better than Bird. 2.

That’s why I’m an Independent. 2. Make it nine in a row at home for the C’s after last night’s 112-107 win over the Bucks. They’ve got the next four at the Garden and they…
