Beating the Knicks 5 straight times was just too good to be true.

They blew a chance for the record books!

And everyone here will tell you records don't matter because the only thing that matters is a championship.

That will be a dog fight again.

Maybe then some of you will appreciate how different this team is this season.

Nah man, this is unacceptable. If I had season tickets I'd burn them in disgust.


You’re right, I’m going to burn my Celtics jerseys too with a kangaroo watching.

Just give the roo a bit of room so it doesn't have to smell **** from the burning jersey.

What is concerning about the Celtics is never about actually losing the game. It is the manner they lose in these games. In all of these games where they were blown out, every single player on the team struggled from three and defense was non-existent. Once they start to trail by double digits, they can't get back in the game most of the time.

Absolutely we are done.

I think we lose in 2-3 games in the first round and run it back, what do you think?

I think we face Miami and lose in 2!
Joe gets fired by halftime after Wyc runs on the court with security to escort him out!


This is the most likely scenario!

Except, PP runs on the court and **** himself and we lose in 1

2022 the team was completely banged up and if we had a healthy Rob, the Heat would have struggled to keep up with us much more.

Last season the vibes with the team were off from January onwards with some real bad losses.

Jimmy was also balling heading into the playoffs.

Of course I could end up wrong and I still think they will be a pain in the arse but I just don’t see them beating us with Porzingis.

I hope they don’t think they can just flip a switch
Disgraceful in front of the hometown fans
