This board is at the point where the best team is basketball is the underdog.

It speaks to how badly they want the Celtics to lose.

Not happening. Not this year.

Zero chance.

As a Celtic fan I'm low key wondering if they should just rest players for this series, give guys like Payton and Kornet the start so Jrue and Porzingus can stay healthy for the long haul.

That's where i'm at with this 1st round matchup, and don't be surprised if you actually see that happen. Celtics are going to smoke MIA in 4, and do so in a way that means those guys won't see the floor in the 4th.

Celtics aren't playing around this year. It's all about that meeting with Denver, and they know it at this point

There's a lot of you guys obsessed with the Celtics coming up short this year.

If the whole team gets quarantined and has to sit out 2 weeks and they forfeit 4 games in a row.

If any team can do it, it's a team coached by Spo

Love this attitude.

Nope. If we're not swept, I'd be extremely impressed. Does Tyler Herro improve his trade value, how do Nikola Jovic and 3J do as starters in their first playoffs? That's what I'm watching for.

Heat could pull off losing by single digits in a game

Roger Murdock · Post #37 » by **Roger Murdock** » Sun Apr 21, 2024 6:46 pm

I think the odds of the Celtics sweeping the heat are considerably greater than the odds of the Heat winning the series.

Not without Butler. Its over.

Could? Yes.

Would? No.

Will? Hell **** no.

They would need Butler for that to even be a conversation....even with Butler it's a longshot.
