Afternoon Delight: Boston Celtics offer sanctuary to disenfranchised Mavericks fans

Since the Dallas Mavericks front office and ownership made the ludicrous decision to trade their 25 year old superstar Luka Doncic who had just led the franchise to the NBA Finals, their fans have suffered nothing, but misery. First they had to deal with the ridiculous press conference where every word that came out of their general manager Nico Harrison's mouth just seemed to make things worse. Then the team rushed back their shiny new (but old) toy from injury Anthony Davis only to see him not last one game before being sidelined indefinitely since then.

The gut punches continued to amass when starting center Daniel Gafford went down with a significant knee injury and now Kyrie Irving is out for the year with a torn ACL. Well MFFL (Mavs Fans For Life) Nation, despite having idots for an owner and general manager there is hope around the corner.

Celtics Life Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist Rondo Burgundy has learned that Celtics President Brad Stevens, Head Coach Joe Mazzulla, and ownership is opening up their doors for disenfranchised Mavericks fans. Fans are flooding Celtics Nation for a safe place to sleep at night which don't include Nico nightmares. And the first 500,000 were even given a limited edition Von Wafer beer coozie as welome gifts!

Mavericks fans who just this past June wouldn't dream of rooting for the Celtics after Boston gave them the ole gentleman's sweep 4 games to 1 beatdown in the NBA Finals are now bleeding Celtics green.

When contacted by Rondo Burgundy, Stevens had this to say:

Boston has always been a welcoming city to refugees and we were seeing horrible war crimes being committed to Mavs fans on every day that ended in day and we decided to lend a helping hand to these fans who are people too.

There are reports also trickling in that Stevens may be willing to give Dallas back their fans after they have fired Harrison and its safe to return in exchange for three lottery picks which the Mavs will undoubtedly earn as their old and injured core chug on. Once Rondo Burgundy has a thirsd source to confirm this shrewd move by Brad, we will update this breaking news story.
