Shoot - I just saw this - on Thursday the NBA announced the name on the new Portland-based D-League team - Maine Red Claws.

Good, better than the "Maine Lighthouses" or whatever the other choices were. Now let's just hope the logo is cool.

And while they haven't announced the NBA team affiliation, I bet you a trillion dollars the Boston Celtics will be in there somewhere.

Which brings me to my next concern, that the team colors are going to be Celtics Green and Lobster Red.

Mmmm, festive.
