Hopefully for the Celtics sake he doesn’t but I doubt it. 3 years, $15 million from someone is my guess

I tip my hat to the stay ready crew though for caring a bit about my precious SRS/net rating.

Our starters should be embarrased but Tstum has done this throughout his career which is why Inhavw zero confidence in him bringing us a title. He folds his tent way too easily and takes too many possessions and games off

Last 2 games will be fun. We might get a PP 40 ball

Tatum is top 3 in the league, everyone will see when he holds up the trophy this season!

Start the second unit the whole second half and we would have had a better shot beating this team. You know, you just know with THIS Celtics that if a team goes on a run like the Knicks did in the second quarter, this team is too mentally fragile to fight through adversity when THE GOING GETS TUFF.

GREAT COMBO FOR THE PLAYOFFS LOL…

Wtf are you talking about. The team was 5-1 in elimination games last year and the game they lost was because Tatum hurt his ankle

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

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.

True.

It's a concern, but until we see them in the playoffs, we won't really know for sure what this team is made of.
