No, we hate them because the NBA tailor-made them into the team they are along with the KG trade by giving Boston all the help from the refs that is humanly possible without some sort of lawsuit brought up against the NBA. Jealous? Yes, I guess, since the NBA and Stern so blatantly favors Boston they were willing to do anything to see them in the Finals last season, and we all wish it could be our team. Oh well, at least I know the difference between teams winning by hard work and legitimately and teams winning like the Heat and Celtics because the league is in financial trouble and needs a boost.

Yea the NBA gives us all the help:

Depends on how you define game I guess. But the point is that the intensity doesn't stop at the end of a game in the middle of a playoff series. The point isn't to win that 48 minute stretch, it's to win the series. So at that point nothing is really over.

intense intensity isn't something you can summon at a whim, you gotta keep it intensely raging. press conference? intense as ****. postgame? intense as ****. pregame interview? intense as ****. plowing the wife? so **** intense the headboard gets dented.

that's the heart of a champion.

I never disliked the Spurs because they were so great. In fact their greatness earned my respect. Last season, I had great respect for what the Celtics did to the Lakers in the finals.

But this season, with the KG antics, the trash talking between Celtics, Cavs and Lakers fans, and everything else in between, I've grown tired of the Celtics.

If I hate the Celtics, it's not because they're so great. I could respect them last season when they were a much greater team than they are this season.

Jordan was a trash talker
Bird

Hall of Famers right there...I don't see anyone complainin' bout them?

It's not the doing it part that I care about...but why complain when you do it yourself or think you'll do it yourself in the future? Conversely, if you just complained about it, shouldn't you take a step back before you start yelling and stuff and say "Wait a sec, I complained about someone doing this not too long ago"? If you don't, you open yourself up to a bunch of people laughing at you, which is what this thread is about, I guess.

It would be okay if KG was doing it the way those guys did, as he was scoring on guys.

KG to Gordon after the game was just classlesss.
